Level 3 data

EVERY time I try to receive a payment, check merchant service deposits, or a few other things, I get a box:  

 

Sometimes, I get these 2 or 3 times in a row.

How do I disable the message?  And I don't care about Level 3 data (I don't accept credit cards).

 

Oh, and the Tell me more link goes to a dead page.

Thanks for checking this with us, JerryL1

 

I want to make sure your issue with Level 3 Data Processing message gets resolved.

 

You can use the Turn off pop-up messages for products and services feature in QuickBooks Desktop. This can help prevent QuickBooks Payments pop-ups from showing. I'll show you how to do this below:

 

  1. Go to Edit and choose Preferences.
  2. From the General tab, check the box for Turn off pop-up messages for products and services.
  3. Click OK to save changes.

All you need to know about the Level 3 data processing and your QuickBooks Payments accounts can be found in this article: What merchants need to know about Level 3 data processing.

 

If the prompt continues after performing the above steps, I recommend contactig our Contact Payments Support.​ They have the special tools to help disable the message for you.

 

Let me know if you need more help. I'm always happy to lend a hand. Wishing you the best of luck!

Disabling pop up messages had no effect.

 

In talking with Payments support (case [removed]), they are unable to disable credit cards for me, even though I don't want them. And the pop up message problem has been reported by others, and has been referred to Development.  There is no ETA.

 

I would hope that Quickbooks would try to expedite the solution.  This is very frustrating to get this pop up repeatedly,10-12 times an hour.  There seems to be a huge divide between Quickbooks and Quickbooks Payments.  I pay for both, they are both Intuit, yet they don't work well together.

Still, today, with the latest version, this still does not work.  We have been trying for years to get rid of it.  I have sent vidios to support showing having to click past it for every invoice auto created.  If I have 100 invoices, that is 100 clicks.

How do I not participate in this Level 3 data sharing?  I want to remove it but there doesn't seem any way for me to do that.

I just spent two hours with Intuit Tech letting me know in the end that this will not go away ever.  They said this has to do with being compliant with the financial institutes.

 

This just started with my QB today.

Mine too! If it's not going away then they need to lower the price because it's costing me money---my assistant sent out 100 invoices today--she timed and it takes roughly 30 seconds to click reset etc. Basically it cost me $16--just today!
