I am using Quickbooks Essential. Can I sign up for Quickbooks Payments when I am located in Hong Kong? I am trying to create a payment links for my customers in the US.

It's nice to interact with new people in the Community, jplpl. Please know that QuickBooks Payments is unavailable for QuickBooks Online (QBO) Global users.

That said, I'll help you find a third-party app you can use to accept funds or send payment links to other regions electronically. Then, assist you in linking it to the platform to utilize its features and maximize your experience in QBO.

To proceed, kindly follow these steps:

1. Open your QBO account.
2. Go to the Apps menu, then Find apps.
3. Enter the app's name on the Search bar or select Get paid, then Invoicing from the Browser categories section.
4. Choose the best option that fits your business needs.
5. Click Get app now and follow the on-screen process of setting up and connecting the app.

You can also consider accepting payments externally and recording them manually in QBO to mark an invoice as paid. Here's a link for complete guidance: Record invoice payments in QuickBooks Online.

Finally, you may modify your invoices, estimates, and sales receipts in QBO. It allows you to manage the available information on your sales forms and align them based on your business preference.

I'm always here if you need additional assistance handling customer payments or whenever you have other concerns about QuickBooks navigations and menus. Just comment below, and I'll help you in any way.
