Use MANUAL PAYMENTS to track payments that do not go through the system, so everything is accounted for. - Go to MANAGE PAYMENTS ![Screen\_Shot\_2021-12-20\_at\_3.49.32\_PM.png](https://support.youli.io/hs-fs/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base%20Import/Screen_Shot_2021-12-20_at_3_49_32_PM-1.png?width=500&name=Screen_Shot_2021-12-20_at_3_49_32_PM-1.png) - Open the drop-down by clicking MANAGE to the right, and select RECORD MANUAL PAYMENT ![Screen\_Shot\_2021-12-20\_at\_3.49.53\_PM.png](https://support.youli.io/hs-fs/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base%20Import/Screen_Shot_2021-12-20_at_3_49_53_PM-2.png?width=600&name=Screen_Shot_2021-12-20_at_3_49_53_PM-2.png) - Fill in the information in the popup, then click SAVE ![Screen\_Shot\_2021-12-20\_at\_3.52.24\_PM.png](https://support.youli.io/hs-fs/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base%20Import/Screen_Shot_2021-12-20_at_3_52_24_PM-2.png?width=371&height=417&name=Screen_Shot_2021-12-20_at_3_52_24_PM-2.png) **NOTE:** You can edit the RECEIVED PAYMENT AMOUNT if the amount paid does not match the INSTALLMENT. ### Gift a trip / Make a donation 🎁 One way to accomplish this is by **creating payment links in Stripe** based on the trip or the person -- you can name it "Gift a trip or make a donation" and make various amounts ($100, $500, $1000) for example -- and then sharing that with the traveler to have friends/family "donate" towards their trip. Then as the Planner, simply record a manual payment when the payment is received so it shows in YouLi and also on the Traveler's invoice. For example: ![image](https://support.youli.io/hs-fs/hubfs/undefined-3.jpeg?width=670&height=233&name=undefined-3.jpeg)   --- ### Need more help?
