Record a split payment

Mark a sale that the customer settled using more than one payment method.

Updated 13 September 2026

Customers sometimes settle one basket with more than one method. During the pilot, Split payment records that fact as one sale after you have collected the parts yourself.

Take a split payment

  1. 1
    Agree how the customer will divide the total.
  2. 2
    Collect and confirm every part — for example, cash plus a mobile-money transfer.
  3. 3
    Build the basket and tap Charge.
  4. 4
    Choose Split payment.
  5. 5
    Confirm the sale.

Only do this after all parts add up to the basket total.

How it is recorded

The transaction is saved with method Split payment. The current screen does not store the amount collected through each method, so keep the external wallet or terminal references with your normal records.

Common uses

  • Customer pays what cash they have and puts the rest on mobile money.
  • A group splits a bill between two people.
  • The customer uses store vouchers plus another method. For Swipee store credit or a slate, use Customer account instead so both balances are updated correctly.

Cancel part-way

If the customer changes their mind before every part is collected, close the payment-method sheet. The basket stays intact so you can charge it differently.
