Payment not showing?
Client says they paid but you don't see it? Let's troubleshoot.
For card payments
Check timing:
- Payments show instantly but occasionally delay
- Wait a few minutes and refresh
Check Stripe:
- Log into Stripe dashboard
- Look for the payment there
- Check payment status
Client-side issues:
- Ask client to check their bank statement
- They may have started but not completed payment
- Card may have been declined
For bank transfers
Check your bank:
- Has the transfer actually arrived?
- Check correct account
Mark it manually:
- If money is in your bank
- Go to client profile
- Click "Record Payment"
Payment in wrong status?
If a payment shows but status is wrong:
- Contact support
- We can help correct records
Client dispute?
If a client claims they paid but there's no record anywhere:
- Ask for proof of payment
- Check date and amount
- Verify recipient details were correct
