Setting Up Stripe Payments

Stripe integration lets customers pay invoices online with credit or debit card. No more "the cheque is in the mail."

Connecting Stripe

1. Go to Settings → Billing

2. Click Connect Stripe

3. You'll be redirected to Stripe to authorise the connection

4. Once connected, a Pay Now button appears on all invoices

How It Works

When you send an invoice, the customer receives an email with:

• The invoice PDF
• A **Pay Now** button
• A link to the customer portal

They click, enter card details, and pay. You get notified immediately.

Fees

Stripe charges a processing fee (typically 1.75% + 30¢ for Australian cards). This is deducted before funds reach your account. You can choose to absorb the fee or pass it to the customer.

Payouts

Funds arrive in your linked bank account within 2-3 business days. View payout history in your Stripe dashboard.

Disconnecting

You can disconnect Stripe at any time from Settings → Billing. Existing payments are unaffected.
