Email Payment Notifications

Using Quickbooks Merchant Center, we were receiving emails about payments being received when a customer payed an invoice. For about 1 week we have not received those notifications at all either our clients after the pay the invoice online. I've searched the community database and I can't find a valid answer on how to fix this issue.

It states that you need to:

  1. Choose Account from the Online Service Center page.
  2. Select Settings & Alerts.
  3. In the Email Alerts section, choose Yes for each notification you've like to receive.
  4. Enter the email address where you'd like to receive this notifications. 
  5. Click on Save Changes"

Except that those options have been removed and the information isn't able to be used, you can only choose a landing page and that is it.. Can someone please help me figure out how to get emails for payments to invoices (Note. They are NOT recurring payments, just normal payments from invoices.

 

Here is a screen picture. There should be the option "Email Alerts", but there isn't.

I appreciate the complete details you've shared, @Javy.

 

You'd want to make sure that your payment notification email delivery is set in the Account and Settings page within QuickBooks. Let me guide you on how it works.

  1. Login to your QuickBooks Online account.
  2. Go to the Gear icon.
  3. Choose Account and Settings.
  4. Select the Company menu.
  5. Scroll down to the Contact info section.
  6. Click the Pencil icon to edit your email address. 
  7. Pick the Save button.
  8. Hit Done.

If your email address is entered correctly, you'd want to make sure that your email is configured properly. Let's access your email and review your Spam and Junk folders to see if these notification are being routed to the wrong folder when they reach you.

Thanks for bringing this to our attention, LadyRoxann.

 

We've received similar reports about not getting notifications from QuickBooks Payments. You can consider contacting our Merchant Service Team so they can add your account to the investigation (INV-54849).

 

Once added, you'll receive updates regarding the issue via email. Please refer to this link on how to get in touch with them: Contact Payments.

 

 I'm also adding these articles for future references:

 

Stay in touch with me if there's anything else I can do to help manage your customer. I'm always right here to provide the information that you need.


I started receiving the payment alerts again shortly after posting here. I didn't change anything (I am not able to), but they're arriving again. I do note that the format has changed.

 

Thanks for the response.

Were having the same problem. Using QuickBooks Desktop, in setting and alerts, there is only select home landing page?   

There are two notifications, the fist when the customer makes a payment, and the second when the Monies are going to be deposited in our Bank.  The first notification is going to the wrong email address, the second is coming correctly to me.  

We did not make any changes?   How do I change the first notification address?

Thank you for informing us in advance that you've already checked the Settings and alerts section, PoolDesign.

 

Just to clarify, do you mean that you can only see one option when you clicked on the drop-down list? All notifications are usually sent to the email address that is saved in your QuickBooks Payments account.

 

In this case, I would recommend reaching out to our support team for QuickBooks Payments. They can take a closer look at your account and help you further with this.
