Online Payments & BPAY

If you are setting up Online payments is there a way you can exclude BPAY so you don't incur the fees?

 

My client would like to accept payment via Amex etc. but is not happy about the 1.8% fee if customers starrt to use BPAY.

    The ability to turn off BPAY is coming in a couple of weeks, please keep an eye out for emails & in product messaging to inform you of this change.

     

    Cheers, Amanda. 

  • Hi T_M_G,

     

    Thank you for your post.

     

    Once you activate the Online Invoice Payments (OIP) option, BPAY will be included as one of the payment methods available to your customers. Currently, excluding BPAY from the available payment methods is not an option. However, I want to assure you that we've already raised this request with the appropriate team for further consideration. I've also ensured that your post is added to the raised ticket for documentation purposes.


    If you have any further questions or need further assistance, feel free to reach out.

    Cheers,

    Princess

      I have the same problem. This question was raised at least 2 years ago and the same response. You should by now have an answer so we know whether this feature will be update or not. 

      I can set up an account with my bank and pay a flat 25 cents per Bpay payment rather than the 1.8% you charge. We should be able to use our own Bpay account, or allow other electronic payments we choose.

    • Not sure how this is "Marked as Solution" when it doesn't resolve the issue.

       

      Is there any indication at least that this is something they are going to look at? and then if they are going to look at, will this be something they update within the next 6-12 months?

        Look on the bright side, we have a brand new interface, surely that makes up for the missing functionality...  🙄  
        Apparently we've been asking for it!
