Online invoice payments now offers businesses the option to pass on surcharging fees associated with online payments to their customers. That means that the 1.8% surcharge for card payments (Amex, VISA, Mastercard, Apple Pay or , Google PayTM ) or PayPal can now be added to a customer invoice. BPAY is excluded in this phase, so you will continue to be charged for payments received via BPAY.

Coming soon: PayPal!

PayPal will soon be a payment option for your customers when you use Online Invoice Payments. This means they can use PayPal's Pay In 4 option, with no interest or late fees.

For now, PayPal is only available for early adopters.

How does it work?

If you're already using online payments, you can turn on customer surcharging. This will apply to all customers who make payments using a credit or debit card.

When customer surcharging is turned on, the 1.8% surcharge fee can be passed on to your customers. The 1.8% surcharge fee is GST inclusive, regardless of whether the invoice includes GST.

Next, you just need to create and send invoices like you normally would.

    Do you create recurring invoices? The option to pass on customer surcharging for all invoices isn't available yet for invoices created from recurring transactions. Instead you'll have to enable this before you send each invoice, by opening it and selecting the Apply Surcharge option. See 'To turn surcharging on or off for a single invoice', below.

To turn surcharging off for all invoices, repeat these steps and select the option Don't surcharge credit card payments.

If a customer chooses to pay via BPAY, they will not incur a surcharge fee. However, you will continue to be charged any fees related to payments received via BPAY.

When they select Credit or Debit Card, they'll be asked to enter their card details. The amount owing, the surcharge fee, and total amount due (invoice and surcharge fee) will be listed as shown below.

When they click Submit, the payment will be processed.

PayPal users - only for early adopters

If you've turned on customer surcharging for for PayPal, the surcharge will appear as ‘Handling’ in the payer's PayPal wallet.

Handling the payment

When a customer makes a payment, the details will automatically be entered into your MYOB business, and the invoice will be closed off. We'll also send you an email with a detailed break down of the payments.

Note that the payments you receive will be recorded as unmatched and the surcharge fees will be recorded under the ledger account you chose when you turned on surcharging (see the steps above). The surcharge amount will have the same reference number as the received payment, but with an additional 'S' at the end. 

For example, say you receive three online payments on Monday. The payment details of each transaction will be listed as unmatched. MYOB will deposit the total of the three payments overnight into your bank account as one lump sum. So on Tuesday, you would match the deposited transaction that will appear on your bank feed and bank statements. For more information see Matching bank transactions.
