Integrated Payment Processing (IPP)

Integrated Payment Processing (IPP) allows your contacts to enter their credit card or bank account information into a secured page to pay invoices, event registration, donations, etc… online.

This individual is not responsible or liable for any activity that happens on the businesses' account but is required as part of "Know Your Customer" regulations.

Additionally, there is risk that an invoice deleted from the database may already have been posted to your general accounting software. This would cause the two systems to become out of sync. The system provides a Void option that can be used instead of deleting. A void will create a counter entry.
11. Automated Scheduled Billing - The Lead Time Days setting allows you to configure the number of days ahead of the due date invoices for recurring fees (i.e. membership dues) are automatically generated. The lead time gives you time to review the invoices prior to them being emailed out.
