Hi GKLBA , there are definitely some customers who are against the change and I'm supportive of everyone having the opportunity to provide feedback.
There a multiple options available with the payments feature to ensure this works for your business.
The feature can be disabled as a default or with each invoice that is generated.
If the payments feature is enabled, you can also choose whether the fee is paid by you as the business or you can surcharge it to the recipient of the invoice.
The fee also only applies if the invoice is paid using online payments. If the person who has received the invoice chooses to pay via bank transfer or cash, then of course there is no fee.
Contrary to the comments, this is not any kind of 'money grab' by MYOB.
We are enhancing the security of our invoicing platform and ensuring that only legitimate businesses are able to use MYOBs platform for invoice distribution which will help to reduce invoice fraud for businesses and consumers.
Don't want this...Didn't ask for it.
You say that we can Verify and then just opt out of using it...
Ask far as we're concerned...We have already paid/pay per month, for the ability to send out a basic invoice directly through the Accounting Software Package we signed up for.
This is highly arrogant and as far as we can see MYOB is utterly tone deaf to the complaints...and just focused on the $$$'s
