Flat 2.9%, Free Reader
Take a retainer to book the date, invoice the balance, and get paid on location — flat 2.9% rate with a free reader.
Most photography jobs don't get paid all at once.
A client books a wedding, portrait session, or event. You collect a retainer to reserve the date. The remaining balance gets paid later—sometimes weeks or months later.
That’s where many payment systems become awkward.
You need a simple way to collect deposits, invoice remaining balances, and keep payments organized without chasing clients or having uncomfortable money conversations.
Larger photography packages often require payment plans, especially for weddings and high-ticket events.
At the same time, photographers work everywhere.
Studios. Wedding venues. Parks. Corporate events. Client homes.
You need payment tools that travel with you.
And as a solo creative business, the last thing you need is another monthly software subscription during the slow season.
Secure the booking before the camera comes out.
Collect a retainer to reserve the date and protect your calendar from last-minute cancellations.
Whether you’re booking weddings, family sessions, brand shoots, or corporate events, BrookePay makes it easy to take photography retainers and deposits online or in person.
When it’s time to collect the remaining balance, send an invoice and let clients pay securely online.
