Can a customer use their bank account to pay invoices? (ACH payments)

[jtd1216]

The title of this post has been edited from the original: Can a customer use connected bank account to pay recurring invoices?

Hi,

A client of mine has no credit cards or even a debit card for her checking account. Since my service is monthly subscription based, I wanted to get her on recurring invoices. She asked if I could connect her checking account (ACH payments) for her payment. Can this be done through Square? 

Thanks!!

I understand and I can see how see how it would benefit your business. Unfortunately, I still don't have an update on this feature.

I am currently deciding between Square & QBO for invoicing.  Because of ACH payment option, I am leaning toward QBO, but would prefer Square.

Hi @AJDeck - That is excellent feedback! Right now, this would be a Feature Request for our Invoices platform.

Can you set up Reoccurring invoices as an ACH?

Hi @Richiecon84 - 

We don't have the capability for doing the ACH transactions on invoices or payments. This is excellent feedback on our transactions. 

I could pass this along to our Product Team!

We use Square terminals as well as the API for online payments. ACH payments and invoicing API are very much needed. It's been very long time they are missing in Square. I am at the verge of making a decision to switch to Stripe which offers everything Square offers and more in terms of my needs.

I don't know if they read these forums but come on Square, you can do this!!!

This is still a feature request. As of right now, we have a feature that allows sellers to automatically charge their customers using invoices, but not by charging a bank account with ACH. 

I'll make sure to update this thread if I hear anything in regards to being able to charge bank accounts instead of payment cards when paying invoices. Thanks for your patience!
