How to Use Quick Connect to Connect With Customers - Coming Soon
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
-
When a customer invites you, they appear in your Customer Table with a status of Not Connected.
-
Click Connect to open Quick Connect.
-
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.
-
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:
-
From your Customer Table, select View/Edit Form (or Manage) next to the appropriate customer.
-
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:
-
In your Customer Table, you'll see the status Returned and an option to Edit/Resubmit.
-
Click Edit/Resubmit to open Quick Connect.
-
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
-
-
Make the necessary updates and click Resubmit.
Reminder: If you close Quick Connect before submitting, your updates will not be saved.
