Which Workspace369 plans include Flash Pay?

Every plan. Flash Pay is in the sidebar on all plans, just below Invoices.

How does a customer pay with Flash Pay?

Open Flash Pay, type the amount and choose Show QR code. The customer points their camera at it and pays with Apple Pay, Google Pay or a card on a secure page with your business name.

What do I need before I can use Flash Pay?

You'll need Stripe connected first. Payments go through your own Stripe account, and you don't need the customer's details up front.

Can I send a pay link instead of showing a QR code?

Yes. Type an amount, choose Send payment link, then copy, share, text or email it. You pick when links expire: 1, 7, 30 or 90 days. An unpaid link can be cancelled and nothing is charged.

Where do I find Flash Pay and its settings?

Flash Pay is in the sidebar, just below Invoices. Its settings, including tips, are under Settings → Invoices → Flash Pay.

What happens after a Flash Pay payment goes through?

Each one is booked as a paid invoice, so it shows in your invoices and reports, with any tip on the same invoice.

Flash Pay: take a payment on the spot with a QR code or a pay link

Type an amount, turn your phone to the customer and let them pay by Apple Pay, Google Pay or card. Every Flash Pay becomes a paid invoice, with optional tips.

Get paid by QR code, right where you are

Open Flash Pay, type the amount and choose Show QR code. Turn the phone to your customer: they point their camera at it and pay with Apple Pay, Google Pay or a card on a secure page with your business name. You'll need Stripe connected first.

You don't need their details first. They add their own name and email when they pay, and the screen shows Payment received the moment it goes through.

Or text and email a pay link

Not standing next to the customer? Create a pay link instead and copy it, share it from your phone, or send it by text (from Voyager) or email. The link shows the same secure checkout as the QR code.

Links expire after the number of days you choose: 1, 7, 30 or 90. You can cancel a link that hasn't been paid, and nothing is charged. (Changed Nov 3: before you create a link you can add a Client, so the payment lands on that client, and Items with a name, price and quantity, which add up to the amount. On a computer you can also add a tax rate, and the total shows with tax. Text message and Email fill in the client's phone or email, and nothing goes out until you send it; texting starts on Voyager.)

Each payment becomes a paid invoice, with optional tips

Every Flash Pay is booked as a paid invoice, so it shows in your invoices and reports like any other payment.

In Flash Pay settings you can ask for a tip with your own suggested percentages, or fixed amounts for small sales, and choose whether tips are worked out before or after tax. Choose which customer details to ask for, and whether to save customers as clients: Flash Pay matches an existing client by email or phone first.

Booked as a paid invoice
Optional tips with your own suggestions
Matches existing clients by email or phone
Customers saved as clients if you want

The Payment received screen in light and dark mode: $138.00 from Maya Chen, saved as a new client, and invoice 26-115 with an $18.00 tip.
