What depends on Stripe/Impulso Payments

Understand which collection features use Impulso Payments and what to review before sending invoices with online payment.

Updated

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. Review included features

  1. Open Settings > Impulso Payments.
  2. Review card and ACH status separately.
  3. IMPULSO does not save cards or bank accounts for future charges.
  4. Invoices and quote deposits offer card and ACH when the method is active; phone payments remain card-only.

2. Review options, costs, and timing

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.

  1. Card and ACH appear as separate options when active.
  2. Check Stripe for the current fees and payout timing for your account. IMPULSO does not promise a percentage, fixed charge, or exact payout date.
  3. An ACH payment can show Processing. The invoice is not marked paid until the payment is confirmed.

3. Avoid unnecessary changes

  1. Do not save changes if you do not want to change how you collect payments.
  2. Use support or the Stripe Dashboard for refunds, disputes, chargebacks, and account disconnection.
  3. An ACH payment received outside IMPULSO can be recorded manually as ACH already received; that action does not start a debit or save a bank account.
  4. Customer invoices, deposits, documents, emails, and payment screens are shown in English.
