How does a vendor get paid in Mangalyam?
- A couple sends an enquiry, and it arrives on your leads board.
- You send a quote with milestone payments.
- The couple pays online.
- The payout reaches your bank account after KYC.
You do all four in the Partner Workspace.
What are milestone payments?
| Milestone | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Booking advance | Holds your date |
| Interim payment | A payment ahead of the wedding |
| Final payment | The balance |
| Add-ons | Extras beyond the package |
You set the schedule in the quote, so the couple knows what is due and when before the work starts.
How do couples pay?
Couples pay online. There is no manual transfer followed by a screenshot in a chat.
When does the money reach you?
Payouts reach your bank account after KYC, a verification step that comes first. Complete it when you set up your account, so payouts can reach you once couples start paying.
How do you see what is outstanding?
The Money page shows outstanding payment requests, money collected, payouts, refunds and a monthly ledger statement. Each payment is outstanding, collected or paid out to you, so you stop asking who has paid.
Why does this help you get paid faster?
Money arrives late when the terms are vague. The advance is asked for informally, the interim payment is forgotten and the balance waits until after the event. Put the stages in the quote, with a way to pay online, and each payment becomes a request with a date. A couple can still pay late, but the quote removes the friction that causes most delay.
How much admin can software replace?
Software can hold the repetitive parts: the enquiry, the quote, the date and the payment record. The creative work and your accountant's job stay with people.
