We have partnered with Stripe to allow you to accept online payments on your invoices. The best part is we've made the whole process simple and painless. By enabling Payments, your clients can pay your invoices online with a valid Visa, MasterCard, or American Express card. Once cleared, those payments are automatically logged in TrulySmall Invoices and any associated fees will also be recorded automatically.
Follow these steps below and start getting paid in less than a minute:
1. Create a new invoice on TrulySmall Invoices
2. Scroll down and click on "Setup Now". If you haven't signed up or logged in yet, click on "Register Now" and you will be asked to sign up or login to TrulySmall Invoices.
3. Select your business type and click on "Continue" to begin creating your Stripe account.
You will need to setup your login credentials and provide basic information about your business and setup preferences for bank deposits/payouts from Stripe.
In some cases, it could take a few hours or days for Stripe to verify and fully approve your account. You may be asked to provide additional information to Stripe each time you open the TrulySmall Invoices application. Simply click on "Continue" to login to your Stripe account and respond to each question.
4. Once you have finished setting up your Stripe account, you will be taken back into the Payments Settings section in TrulySmall Invoices. The final step is to enable payments by activating the toggle switch next to "Accept Cards". You can also choose to add a convenience fee on your invoices and specify the percentage you wish to charge your customers.
Lastly, you can access your Stripe account by clicking on "Manage" or you can disconnect your Stripe account by clicking on "Disconnect".
That's it. You're now ready to accept online payments whenever you create a new invoice. To learn how to create an invoice, please check out our TrulySmall Invoices Master Guide.
Note: Online payments functionality is only available for invoices issued in the primary currency of your business. The first payout for a new Stripe account will occur 7 days after the first successful payment is received.
