Order Basics

Orders in Ordway are the simplest way to capture a one-time purchase outside of a Plan. Orders are excellent for businesses that want to capture and fulfill orders on an ongoing basis while separating out the invoicing process entirely.  

A typical e-commerce business may simply charge for the purchase upfront before fulfillment. A services business however, may fulfill many orders in a billing period, but send only one invoice to the customer at the end of the billing period.

If your business only offers one-time transactions and not recurring charges, speak to Ordway Support about switching the Subscription Management Feature off, as this feature is best to use when only offering one-time purchases.
