Setting Up Billing & Payments in ATOM

1 min read

ATOM includes built-in billing tools to help you manage client invoices and payments. With ATOM Pay, you can securely process credit card and e-check transactions without leaving the platform.

This article explains how to:

  • Set up ATOM Pay
  • Create invoices
  • Record payments
  • Issue refunds

Step 1: Enable ATOM Pay #

  1. Navigate to Administration → ATOM Pay Setup.
  2. Enter the merchant account details provided during onboarding.
  3. Connect your bank account for deposits.
  4. Click Save.

Once enabled, you’ll be able to send invoices and accept payments directly in ATOM.

Step 2: Create an Invoice #

  1. Open the client file.
  2. Go to Account Information → Transactions.
  3. Click Add Transaction.
  4. Select Fee as the transaction type.
  5. Enter:
    • Service description (e.g., Tax Preparation – 2024)
    • Amount due
    • Due date (optional)
  6. Click Save.

Step 3: Collect a Payment #

Online Payments #

  • From the client file, click Send Invoice.
  • The client will receive a secure portal link to pay by card or e-check.

Manual Payments #

  • Record cash or check payments directly in the Transactions section.
  • Select Payment as the transaction type.

Step 4: Issue a Refund #

  1. Open the client file and go to Transactions.
  2. Select the payment you want to refund.
  3. Click Refund.
  4. Enter the refund amount and confirm.

Refunds are processed back to the client’s original payment method.

Tips for Success #
