Extend functionality of ecommerce to allow user pay a percentage as a deposit

Permalink
I have a client who owns an airport transfer & taxi business.

He wants me to build a site for him that allows users to choose a pickup point - airport or town center (product in ecommerce, base price set to zero) and choose a drop-off point from a list of other locations (modifiers set with price for trip).

Ideally he wants to give people who don't want to pay in full, the option to pay a 25% deposit to book the trip. The percentage will need to be calculated based on the modified price.

Is this even do-able with core commerce?

Hello,
If the idea is to pay a 25% deposit online and pay the rest cash, why don't you try to just set a discount of 75% on the full price in the e-commerce add-on? It might just do the trick.

Can this be set up in ecommerce to automatically set a discount without applying the discount code?

If so this would be the perfect solution.
