📝 Overview

Whenever a payment is recorded, you'll be able to specify what form that payment was in. Common payment types (e.g., cash, check, and credit card) are available by default. However, you can edit or delete these defaults, or add your own payment types. The list of payment types are found under the Settings > Configurations > View Payment Types.

💡 If you are utilizing our integrated payments, the payment types; Terminal, Card On File and Key In, will automatically be created for your account and uploaded as payment types. Integrated payment types cannot be deleted.
