Cash is and will always be king, but it is great to offer several different digital options (credit cards, Zell, Cash app).
Great to give folks options—you want to make sure anyone can pay you right!? What do you think is keeping cash as your preferred method of payment?
Venmo or Check. Credit Cards cost too much. We don't take Cash.
It's nice to have payment options for customers who lean more towards digital payments but also to the classic folks who still stick to their checks.
Is there a reason why you prefer not to accept cash??
Cash, Check, Credit Card. In that specific order :)
Love to have all the options and happy that jobber offers them to my clients.
I use QuickBooks for my invoicing and allow clients to use any option they give me. Credit Cards, PayPal, Venmo, ACH, etc. I have a few clients who pay via check, but the delays in waiting for the mail to arrive and getting them deposited to the bank doesn't work for how I do business. I consider the cost of processing credit cards when I price my work. I am considering a discount if clients use ACH bank transfer.
Payment processors! Stay cash ahead or perish out here.
However they want to pay! We have some warranty companies that we work for that are still sending checks, we are trying for direct deposit. That is probably my favorite. No work on my end and no fees. Happy to have jobber payments as an option though, so many of our clients take advantage!
We take cash, zelle, venmo or credit card and that's it
Nice! You've got a good range of options for your clients. Do you find one method works best or is more popular with your clients? Curious if you’ve seen any trends in how people prefer to pay!
65% of my clients use venmo and sometimes when jobber is down I have them use square just because I get the funds the next day to be 100% honest
I prefer Interac eTransfer, no fees that way. Cheque is ok, cash is a pain to deposit, cards is ok via Jobber or at the door with Helcim.
I prefer cash, Zelle, or check. However I provide as many options as (now) Jobber offers.
