Book more sessions. Get paid before you pick up the camera. Partial.ly lets photographers offer flexible payment plans tied directly to session dates — so clients can secure their booking today and spread the cost comfortably before the big day arrives.

How this Partial.ly checkout experience works

1. The interactive widget appears directly on your product page — clients can explore payment plan options before selecting Partial.ly
2. They select their session date and preferred payment frequency — weekly, bi-weekly, or monthly
3. A down payment secures their booking today, and Partial.ly collects automatic payments until the balance is paid in full
4. All payments are completed before the session date — so you're paid in full before you pick up your camera
5. You receive a notification when the plan is complete — so you always know when a booking is fully paid

Need different terms? No problem. Terms are completely customizable. 

Why photographers choose Partial.ly

Turn inquiries into confirmed bookings faster. Clients who might hesitate at a $2,000 upfront cost are far more likely to commit when they can spread payments across weeks or months leading up to their session.

Payments are tied to your session schedule. The Partial.ly widget lets clients select their session date upfront and automatically builds a payment plan that completes before that date — so you're never chasing payments after the work is done.

Perfect for weddings, portraits, and milestone sessions. Photography packages for weddings, newborns, and family portraits are planned well in advance — giving Partial.ly plenty of runway to collect payments comfortably before the session arrives.

Offer Partial.ly alongside your existing payment options. Partial.ly works in addition to your standard Shopify checkout, other buy now pay later providers, and any other payment methods you already accept — giving every type of client a way to say yes.

Customer flexibility, on your terms. Within the parameters you set, Partial.ly can give customers the option to choose their terms — making the experience feel personalized while keeping you firmly in control of the plan structure.

Payments are automated and hands-free. Partial.ly automates the entire payment schedule and collection process, freeing you up to focus on your craft. You offer the plan, Partial.ly handles the rest.

You're in control. Partial.ly requires no credit checks or lending criteria — and there are no third-party lenders involved. You simply set your own terms, including the required down payment and any optional fees, and give clients a structured way to pay you over time.
