In this guide, we are going to talk about how you can use the WooCommerce Partial Payment feature.
This is a payment feature that enables you to receive part of the total price in an initial payment and then decide how to get the rest of it. For example, you can ask for 20% of the total price online and then take the rest in cash or through other payment methods.
