Quickbooks pay now link not working

When we send emails out from Quickbooks the "Pay now" link is not working.  It is not clickable.  If you copy and paste the link, it does work, but usually it is a hyper link and the customer can just click it.  We can not expect our customers to know how to copy and paste that.

 

We need the link to be a hyper link so it can be clicked.

 

Please see that attached picture that shows the link I am referring to.

Hello @coreycpoc,

 

Let's run the QuickBooks Utility tools and fix your invoice's data so your customers can pay it after sending it. I'll show you how.

 

A. To Verify Data

  1. Go to File.
  2. Click Utilities.
  3. Select Verify Data.
  4. Click OK.

B. To Rebuild Data

  1. Go to File.
  2. Click Utilities.
  3. Select Rebuild Data.
  4. Click OK.

In addition, here's an article you can read to learn more about the QuickBooks tools: Verify and Rebuild Data in QuickBooks Desktop.

 

Lastly, I've also included this helpful article for other ways that you can accept payments from your customers: Receive and process payments in QuickBooks Desktop.

 

Keep me updated in the comments if you have any other questions. I'll be here to lend a hand.

Kimberly,

I just upgraded and installed Quickbooks 2024 Desktop for Mac about 2 weeks ago. It took some doing to get my credit card processing set up and now this problem. I really wish this would just work like it's supposed to. Quickbooks is up to date, no updates are needed at this time.

  5. Enter the single-use code you received in your email and hit Continue.
  6. Choose between Chat with us or Have us call you.

 

I also added this helpful resource for more details about processing customer payments online: Turn on online payments in QuickBooks Desktop for Mac.

We are experiencing the same problem.  Has anyone found a solution?  Verify / Rebuild does nothing.
