# A shop that never closes.

RALPH gives your operation a shop that sells trial lessons, gift vouchers and courses online, at any hour. A buyer pays online and books a slot that passes your rules, or gets a voucher to redeem later. Deposits can be taken when a booking is made. Every sale and deposit lands in your billing and accounting tools, such as Xero, beside the invoices RALPH raises for flying.

*The shop: a trial lesson and a deposit paid online, and a gift voucher sent, each sale landing in the operator's accounting tool, Xero in this example.*

## How it works

1. **Stock the shop.** Add your trial lessons, vouchers and courses, with their prices and what each one includes.
2. **Sell around the clock.** Buyers pay online, book a slot that passes your rules or get a voucher, and your team sees the sale on the schedule.
3. **It lands in your accounting tool.** Each sale and deposit is recorded in your billing and accounting tools, such as Xero, beside the flying you've invoiced.

## Questions, answered

### What can we sell?

Trial lessons, gift vouchers and courses, at the prices you set. Each one says what it includes and which aircraft or kinds of flying it's for.

### How does a voucher work?

The buyer pays online and the recipient gets a code. When they book, the code is redeemed against the flight, and your rules check the booking like any other.

### Can we take a deposit when someone books?

Yes. Choose which bookings need one and how much, and it's paid when the booking is made.

### Where does the money go?

Every sale and deposit is recorded in your billing and accounting tools, such as Xero, so your books stay in one place.
