Sell tests in bulk

Sell a site a batch of tests that its contact books from the portal.

You can sell a client account's site a batch of tests at a price per test you set. The contact then books units from their portal, and each unit uses one test.

How to sell a batch

  1. Open HOAs & contractors and click the account. It must be Active.
  2. Under Tests, click Sell tests.
  3. Pick the Site.
  4. Enter How many tests and the Price per test, $.
  5. Optional: add a Note, such as a PO number or the season.
  6. Choose how they pay:
    • Email them a card pay link: they get an email with a pay link. Click Sell and send pay link.
    • Already paid (check, invoice): the tests can be used at once. Click Add paid tests.

The form shows the total before you send it. If the account has no sites yet, add one first.

A card pay link needs card payments connected. A card payment must be at least 50¢. For a free batch, choose Already paid.

Batch badges

When the customer pays the link, the batch turns Paid by itself.

How many tests are left

Each site shows N left, how many were bought and booked, and how many are waiting on payment. Click booked tests to see each one and its stage.

If you cancel a job that was booked from a batch, its test goes back to the batch.

Get warned when a site runs low

Under Account, set Warn when a site has [number] tests left. It saves when you click out of the box. When a site drops to that number, you and the customer both get an email.

Refunds

A paid batch can't be withdrawn. Refund it in your Stripe dashboard.
