Thanks for taking the time to reach out to us. Allow me to address your concern, so let me get this straightened out.
As of now, QuickBooks Online doesn't have any feature to sent a notification through text once the customer made a payment for their invoice. I can see how this feature would be helpful for you, I'd recommend sending feedback directly to our product developers for future updates.
Here's how you can send feedback:
Click the Gear Icon.
Select Feedback.
Click Next and choose Feedback under Category option.
It's been 1.5 years since this question was posed. Any updates? I too would like a text alert when an invoice has been paid or at least submitted for payment.
It's been 1.5 years since this question was posed. Any developments? I too would like to receive a text message alerting me when an invoice has been processed, or at least submitted. It's hard to provide a quick service turnaround if you have to wait 2-3 days to see if the money shows up.
I appreciate your time for reaching out to the Community, DoubleACampGuy.
For now, you can receive a notification alerting an invoice has been paid via email based on your merchant account set up. You may consider looking for a third-party application that integrates with QuickBooks Online. This way, you'll be able to get a text alert when an invoice has been processed.
While we continue to make your experience with us even better, I would also encourage you to visit our QuickBooks Blog site to be updated with the recent developments made in QBO.
