# How to Use Quick Connect to Connect With Customers

## Quick Connect allows you to connect with new customers quickly using the information already stored in your Payee Profile. It reduces onboarding to only the customer-specific questions your payer requires.

### What Quick Connect Is

**Quick Connect** simplifies the onboarding process by focusing only on the **customer-specific fields** required by each payer. Since your **Payee Profile** already holds your business identity, tax details, addresses, and bank accounts, there’s no need to re-enter standard information.

You’ll use Quick Connect in these scenarios:

- **New Connection** – A customer has invited you, and you already have a PaymentWorks account.
- **Manage Connection** – You need to update customer-specific information for an existing connection.
- **Returned Profile** – A customer has returned your profile for correction or additional information.

---

### Using Quick Connect for a New Connection

1. When a customer invites you, they appear in your **Customer Table** with a status of **Not Connected**.
2. Click **Connect** to open Quick Connect.
3. Complete the customer-specific steps:

#### **Remittance Address**

- Choose an existing address from your profile or add a new one.

#### **Payment Method & Bank Information**

- Select the accepted payment method.
- Choose from your saved bank accounts (or add a new one in your Payee Profile if needed).

#### **Conflict of Interest**

- Answer any conflict of interest questions required by the customer.

#### **Insurance Attestation**

- If insurance documents are stored in your profile, you may be asked to confirm the customer is added as **additionally insured**.

#### **PO Information, Additional Contacts, Custom Questions**

- Provide purchase order contacts, additional payer-specific contacts, or any other custom fields requested.

1. Click **Submit** to complete the connection. The customer will receive your details for review.

> **Note:** If you exit before submitting, your changes will not be saved.

---

### Managing an Existing Connection

To update customer-specific information for an existing connection:

1. From your **Customer Table**, select **View/Edit Form** (or **Manage**) next to the appropriate customer.
2. Quick Connect will reopen and allow you to update:
   
     - Payment method
     - Conflict of interest responses
     - Insurance attestation
     - PO or ordering contacts
     - Custom fields for that customer

> You **cannot** update global profile information (like bank accounts, tax IDs, or addresses) in Quick Connect. You'll see a message directing you to update those items in your **Payee Profile**.

---

### Updating a Returned Profile

If a customer returns your profile for changes:

1. In your **Customer Table**, you'll see the status **Returned** and an option to **Edit/Resubmit**.
2. Click **Edit/Resubmit** to open Quick Connect.
3. You’ll see:
   
     - A message from the customer with correction instructions
     - A banner reminding you to edit global information in your Payee Profile
     - The fields that require updates
4. Make the necessary updates and click **Resubmit**.

> **Reminder:** If you close Quick Connect before submitting, your updates will not be saved.

### Why Quick Connect Matters

Quick Connect:

- **Speeds up onboarding** by eliminating repetitive data entry. By using your **Payee Profile** to centralize standard business information
- **Focuses only on customer-specific requirements -** Keeps your global and customer-specific data separate, making it easier to manage multiple connections
