[Australia Only] How to Set Up Online Payments to Get Paid Faster
Houzz Pro online payments gives you an easy, convenient and secure way to receive payment from your client.
Why Use Online Payments?
When your client pays you directly through Houzz Pro, your payments will be logged on your estimates/proposals and invoices without the need to manually input them. This saves you time and ensures accurate records for your business. This also helps your client, who might need digital records of payments for personal records or GST purposes.
If you're synced with Xero, a record of your online payments will automatically show up there, which avoids the headache of double entries. See this article to learn more about syncing Houzz Pro to Xero.
