For: Owner, Admin

Before you start

  • You need Owner/Admin access to review payments.
  • Do not open Stripe or save changes when you are only reviewing settings.
  • For customer data, use realistic US-market services such as roofing, HVAC, gutters, or exterior painting.

1. Open Impulso Payments

  1. Go to Settings.
  2. Open Impulso Payments.

2. Confirm connection and methods

About the image: This capture preserves the earlier screen location and must not be used as a reference for fees, payout timing, or saved methods. The current behavior is described below.

  1. Look for Payments active and Stripe account connected.
  2. Review Credit/debit card and Bank transfer (ACH) separately.
  3. If ACH is pending, open Stripe and complete the requested information. Card payments may remain available.

3. Review the card limit

  1. Use No limit when customers can choose card or ACH.
  2. Use Bank transfer only for invoices over when you want to prevent card payments above a chosen amount; this limit does not block ACH.
  3. Check Stripe for current fees and payout timing. IMPULSO does not show a universal percentage, fixed charge, or exact payout promise.
  4. Click Save only when you are ready to apply the change.
