Cash flow is tight until the next customer payment but I still want to pay my employees payroll. How can I process payroll in QBO with my business credit card?

Hi alex-pearce,

You can use the Direct Deposit feature to pay your employees using Credit Card. Note: If your bank is one of the eight partner banks, you can connect your bank instantly. Otherwise, you'll go through our regular bank verification process. This will take up to 3 business days activate direct deposit.

Here are the steps:

1. Click the Gear icon located in the upper right-hand corner.
2. Under Your Company, click Payroll Settings.
3. Under Payroll and Services, click Direct Deposit.
4. Click the Yes! Let's get started button.
5. Follow the on-screen instructions.

You can also check this article for more information: Set up your company payroll for direct deposit.

Please let me know if you have any additional questions. Thanks.

Hello there, alex-pearce.

Thank you for getting back to us. I'm here to provide the support you need with changing the funding account for Direct Deposit.

I've checked here, and we haven't received any reports from other users regarding the missing option. To isolate the issue, we can perform some basic troubleshooting.

We can start with logging into your QuickBooks account through a private browser. I'm adding the shortcut key below depending on the browser you're using:

• In Mozilla Firefox and Internet Explorer, press Ctrl + Shift + P.
• In Google Chrome, press Ctrl + Shift + N.
• In Safari, press Command + Shift + N.

If you're able to see the option, we can switch back to your regular browser and clear its cache. If the same thing happens, I recommend using a different browser.

Please let me know how this goes, and I'll be sure to get back to you. I'll be on a lookout for your response.

Hi again, alex-pearce.

Thank you for getting back to me and for providing additional clarification about what you've tried on your end to change the funding account.

I've checked your screenshot and have identified that you're one of the users using the new platform of QBOP. The steps provided by my colleague @RenjolynC is applicable for users with the old view.

Here are the steps you can follow:

1. Click the Gear icon.
2. Select Payroll Settings.
3. Below Bank Accounts, select Company.

I'm adding the screenshot for additional reference:

Thanks for coming to the Community, wishing you a wonderful rest of your day.

Thanks for reaching back out to us, @Anonymous.

Allow me to join this thread and provide some information about paying an employee through a credit card in QUickBooks Online.

Currently, paying an employee using a credit card isn't an option for us. As my peer AlcaeusF mentioned above, using the direct deposit feature or even writing regular checks only allows you to use a standard checking account for funding employees. 

I can see how this feature can help you run your business easier. I'd encourage you sharing this idea to our product Product Developers. Doing this helps them understand where we can improve and what features should be added so we can better serve you. Just click on the Gear icon and select on Send Feedback Online to send your suggestion.
