Card payments and receipts, handled instantly

The first is cards. Plenty of businesses run operating expenses through a credit card on purpose, for the float, for the points, or simply because the card statement is how their bookkeeper categorizes spend. PayPal handles Visa, Mastercard, American Express and Discover cleanly, and the charge lands on the statement where your accounting process already expects it. The amount you owe is identical either way; we do not add a surcharge for choosing a card.

You do not need a PayPal account

This trips people up constantly. If we send you a PayPal invoice, you can pay it with a debit or credit card as a guest. There is a card option on the payment page that does not require signing up or logging in. You enter the card, it clears, and the receipt is emailed to you. No new account, no password to store, no ongoing relationship with a service you did not want.

If you already have a PayPal account, everything is simpler still: log in, confirm, done, and the payment sits in your PayPal activity history alongside everything else for the year.

Receipts and record keeping

PayPal issues a transaction receipt the instant a payment clears, with the amount, the date and the transaction ID. Paired with our invoice, that is a complete and defensible record for your books. For businesses that reimburse an owner or a manager for IT spend, the emailed receipt usually shortens that process to forwarding one message.

For recurring managed billing, most clients eventually move to ACH bank transfer, because a flat monthly amount is better suited to a bank rail than to a card that expires every three years and quietly breaks the payment when it does. But there is no requirement to switch, and card-based monthly billing works fine if that is your preference.

One important note on how to reach the payment page. Ask us for a PayPal invoice and we will issue it to your billing email address directly from our account. That is the safe path. We do not publish a PayPal handle on this website, because published payment identifiers are routinely spoofed by people setting up lookalike accounts and lookalike domains to catch a fraction of a vendor's inbound payments. If you are ever unsure whether a payment request from us is genuine, call (602) 677-0779 before you send anything. You can check whether anyone has registered a domain that impersonates your own business with our free lookalike domain checker.

The other accepted methods, Zelle, ACH and business check, are on our payments page, along with invoice timing and how monthly managed billing works. For questions about how a price was arrived at in the first place, see estimates and approvals.
