Steps
Connect a Porter card reader or enable in-app checkout for the studio
Turn on Auto-collect Deposits so a deposit is requested automatically when a booking is made
Configure checkout so remaining balances are calculated against the deposit already paid
Process full checkout through Porter's POS at the end of the session, applying artist commission splits automatically
Review reports showing deposits collected versus final checkout totals per appointment
Known gotchas
Deposits and final checkout are tracked as linked but separate transactions — refunding a deposit after a completed checkout requires handling them as two separate actions
Porter's checkout links and card reader flows are built specifically around tattoo appointment structure, so studios also running unrelated retail-only transactions should confirm those still route through the same reporting correctly
