How do I enable Mollie in Amelia?
Open Features & Integrations → Integrations, locate Mollie, enable the integration, and click Set up.
Clicking Set up opens the Settings → Payments section, where Mollie payments are configured.
How do I configure Mollie API keys?
In Settings → Payments, enable the Mollie payment method.
You will see the following options:
- Sandbox mode
- Live API key or Test API key
When Sandbox mode is enabled, Amelia expects a Test API key.
When Sandbox mode is disabled, Amelia expects a Live API key.
Copy the appropriate API key from your Mollie dashboard and paste it into the corresponding field, then click Save.
How do I get Mollie API keys?
Create or sign in to your Mollie account at mollie.com and open the Mollie dashboard.
From the dashboard, open the API keys section and copy:
- Test API key for sandbox mode
- Live API key for live payments
To receive a Live API key, your Mollie account must be verified. This requires submitting company details and waiting for Mollie’s approval.
Pay-after-delivery methods (such as Klarna Pay later or Klarna Slice it) and voucher-based payments require the Orders API and cannot be used with the Payments API.
What is “Set metadata and description” used for?
The Set metadata and description section allows you to add booking-related information to Mollie transactions.
This information appears in the Mollie dashboard and helps you identify payments.
Metadata and descriptions can be configured separately for:
- Appointments
- Cart
- Packages
- Events
For each tab, you can define:
- Property name
- Property value (supports placeholders)
- Description (supports placeholders)
You can add multiple properties by clicking the + icon.
How do placeholders work in Mollie metadata?
Both Property value and Description fields support placeholders.
Placeholders allow you to dynamically insert booking details such as service name, customer name, event name, or appointment date into Mollie transactions.
Available placeholders depend on whether you are configuring appointments, cart bookings, packages, or events.
Do I need to enable Mollie for services and events?

To enable Mollie for an event:
- Create or edit an event
