Payment Method Settings

This article will explain the Payment Methods section within the configuration such as what payment methods are, how to delete them, how to add them and available payment integrations.

The payment method section gives you the ability to create different payment methods that you would like to offer your client. The most common are:

• Cash
• Cheque
• Credit Card
• Eftpos
• 7 - 90 Day Accounts
• Direct Debit
• Stripe (integration)

It is important to note that all but Stripe require that you capture the payment external to FlatRateNOW.

Stripe is an integrated payment method where you actually accept the payment through the FlatRateNOW app, not through a POS terminal.
