Before you start
Payments is not available on Basic. Upgrade your plan to take advantage of this feature.
To set up the Payments Feature, you need to have the Admin or Manager role. If you don't have that role, ask an Admin on your company's account for permission; here's what they'll need.
Once the Payments Feature is set up, all permission roles can create, edit, or delete a Payment Request.
Accepting Payments is only available in the United States.
Please Note:
Customers can pay via a web link (that's mobile friendly), QR Code, or you can manually enter their card information.
Customers can pay via credit card, Apple Pay, Google Pay, or ACH (powered by Stripe).
The end customer can pay with cards (3% fee for the contractor) or ACH (1% or up to $10 fee per transaction).
No Sales Tax or Line Items can be added. Each Payment Request will be a single dollar amount.
Payments are powered by Stripe. If you're having issues with your Stripe account, check out their help guide or contact Stripe Support.
