What does it cost to take card payments? +
Stripe takes its card processing fee, and SortScape adds a 0.5% platform fee. Both come out before the money reaches your bank. In Australia, card surcharges stopped on 1 October 2026, so you can't add one to the invoice any more, but the fees still apply.
Do my customers have to pay online? +
No. Pay Now is an extra option on the invoice. Customers can still pay by bank transfer or cash, and you record the payment yourself.
Which plan do I need for Xero, QuickBooks and invoice reminders? +
Xero, QuickBooks Online and automatic invoice reminders are part of SortScape Premium. Invoicing, bulk invoicing and invoices by text come with every plan (text isn't available if you invoice through QuickBooks).
Can I take card payments if I use Xero or QuickBooks? +
Pay Now works with SortScape's built-in invoicing. If you invoice through Xero or QuickBooks, take online payments there and the paid status comes back to SortScape.
Can a customer pay part of an invoice? +
Yes. Record each payment as it comes in and the invoice shows the balance still owing. Reminders ask for what's left, not the full amount.
