Question

QuickBooks Invoicing and Payments with GoPayment

I am looking for a tutorial, preferably a video, that specifically shows, in QBO, how to create and process both an invoice and payment using a card reader (Go Payment?).

 

Assume I am at a client site and just finished my job, and they are eagerly standing in front of me with their credit card.

 

I am NOT looking for how to set up the reader, merchant account, etc.

Number 2 will due. 

 

At about 2:45, while creating the Sales Receipt, the "Seller" checks off 2 boxes, one each for Credit Cards and ACH. 

 

Can these be set:

1 - Globally as a default for all cutomers

2 - Overridden by customer (eg only one or the other)

 

I do not want the Sales person to have to deal with this on every invoice.

Hello there, @RangerZ.

 

I'm here to provide some insights about the online credit card and ACH payments in QuickBooks.

 

For your first question, we're unable to set this default for all of your customers. You'll have to select one customer at a time. While for the second question, as long as the online invoice payment is turned on, you're customer can choose what payment method they referred to. 

 

Also, once your customer already provided his/her bank information. You'll have the option to save it for future use. This way, you don't have to re-enter every time they pay you via ACH.

 

In case you have a preferred payment method set for your customer. You can follow the steps below:

 

  1. Go to Sales on the left-hand menu, then Customers.
  2. Locate a customer you want to edit and click on their name. 
  3. Under the Customer Details tab, press on Edit.
  4. On the Customer Information window, go to the Payment and Billing tab. Select the Preferred payment method drop-down menu and enter the necessary information.
  5. Hit Save.

After I run the client’s credit card using my phone, it asks for the remote client’s signature, this is new, how do I run the canes without having the client sign my phone over the phone!?

Allow me to share some information about credit card payment for your transactions and guide you on what to do, Linchim.

 

You'll have to make sure to print the authorization form from your customer and get the form by mail or fax to complete and sign. For now, e-signatures are unavailable in QuickBooks Online.

 

If you want to charge your customer repeatedly on a fixed schedule, the card provider may require you to obtain the customer's permission. You'll want to comply with these rules by providing an authorization form that ensures you get the required information from your customers. The form not only secures the customer's permission but also stipulates the terms of the recurring payment and can help protect you from possible chargebacks. Learn more about your responsibilities as a merchant who handles recurring charges.

  1. On the Create recurring payment screen, click the Authorization Form link.

  2. Print the authorization form and complete the merchant sections. (You cannot complete the form online.)

    It's a good idea to ask your customer what the best billing date would be for them.

  3. Get the form (by mail, fax, or in-person) to your customer to complete and sign.

    • Make sure the form is complete and readable.

    • Check the credit card expiration date. If the card will expire soon, let your customer know you will need updated credit card information before this date.

    • Keep a copy of the signed form on file. In the case of a customer dispute (for example, a chargeback), you may need to provide the form to the merchant account processor.

  4. Now you're ready to set up the recurring payment.

In addition, with QuickBooks Online Advanced, you can have customers sign your estimates digitally using DocuSign eSignature. Please read this article for more information: Get e-Signatures for Estimates in QuickBooks Online Advanced.
