Allow Invoices to be paid by bank tranfer

Allow Invoices to be paid by bank tranfer

Hi ,

 

I see when creating a new invoice from the dashboard there are only two options for payment

Debit/Credit Card Or

Gift Card

 

We have some large invoices over $10,000 which our customers need to pay by bank transfer as  their credit limits are not that high.

Hey @wpa4x4,

 

Thanks for the feedback!

 

This has been a popular request in Australia over the years, however to be honest I'm not sure it's something on the road-map at the moment. Bank to bank transfer is not something we've traditionally done in any of the markets we're set up in for payments (US, Canada, Australia, Japan, UK).

 

With that said, if you're sending an invoice via Square, your customer can always send you a bank transfer independently of Square, then you can mark the invoice as paid. You customer doesn't actually need to click on the Square payment link for you to use Square as the invoice system and close out the invoice once it's paid via another means (eg bank transfer, cash). You can even leave your bank account details in the notes section so all the info the customer needs to pay by bank transfer is within the invoice you send via Square.

Wpa, 

Its a shame you need a workaround, but our workaround (for the same issue) is to send invoices with bank details / payment advice included. We find most customers prefer this for larger invoices generally.
