Last week, a client asked me to help them sign up for QuickBooks Payments. During the setup, I noticed a few new options, and I want to share my findings.
Let’s face it, a lot of business is conducted on our phones. Even if you have a love-hate relationship with your handheld device, when it pings, it’s hard to ignore.
That why I’m excited about QBO Invoice sharing links. Now it’s easier to copy a link and share via text, social media, and more.

During sign up, my client was asked several new questions like, "how do You want to Invoice". He selected all that applied.
Next, he was asked, "how do you want to get paid". There are several standard options plus Apple Pay for Apple lovers.

By selecting the various options, he was given a new 'Payment Links' tab inside the Sales Center.

Payments Links
These new Payments Links are easy to use and great for reaching people on their favorite device – their phone! When you switch to the 'Payment Links' tab this is what it looks like (below) the first time.

Even if you are not a new user QuickBooks Payments user, the Payments Links tab is available to you in the Sales Center if you have an active QuickBooks Merchant Services Account.
The way it works is easy. Click on the Payments Link tab and enter a dollar amount, type of services, a sender, how you want to get paid, and create a payment link.

Like most people, I think getting paid is "awesome!"
If you have a client who’s having a hard time collecting fees the traditional way, "this might help them get Paid!" This tool feels like it will be especially helpful for businesses who do not need many sales details tracked inside QBO. But most of all businesses who need or want to 'get paid fast.'
