Article summary

If the company has had Aspire enable the Electronic Customer Payment Processing feature, then the Contact screen will reflect a tab called Payment Methods for contacts whose contact type is not “Employee” or “Sub”. This tab allows the user to view, create, or edit payment methods (credit/debit or ACH) for individual customers. Customers can also directly set up their own payment methods using the Customer Portal.

The screen elements in the Payment Methods area of the Contacts screen are described in the following table.
