Purchase on Invoice

With the payment method "Purchase on Invoice," you can send automatic invoices with Swiss QR Code.

Using the "Purchase on Invoice" payment method within Payrexx Pay, automatic invoices with Swiss QR Code can be sent. The payment status is automatically updated in the Payrexx backend.

For more information about invoices, please visit the Payrexx website.

Payment Process

When "Purchase on Invoice" is selected as the payment method, Payrexx sends an invoice to the customer's email address. The invoice contains the bank details and a reference ID for your Payrexx instance.

The bank details on the invoice are not yours but those of Payrexx. This is because the amount is first transferred to your Payrexx account and then paid out to your bank account.

Incoming payments are reconciled with the transaction overview in Payrexx each morning. Once a payment is confirmed, the payment status changes from "pending" to "confirmed". The amount is then transferred to you with the next payout.

Payments using the Swiss QR code only work if the customer executing the payment has an account with a Swiss bank. If this is not the case, the payment cannot be allocated. In such cases, it will be refunded.

Payment Status Is Not Updating

If the payment status in Payrexx is not updating even though the customer has made a payment, it is usually because the customer did not use the payment options specified on the invoice but chose a different method instead. In this case, the system cannot update the payment status.
