Selecting Your User Type

Choose the User Type that best describes your role:

  • Payer: You are a PaymentWorks customer using the platform to onboard vendors.
  • Payer on Behalf of Vendor: You are a PaymentWorks customer creating a ticket to transfer a vendor to PaymentWorks for assistance.
  • Vendor: You are a supplier/payee invited by a customer (Payer) to register on PaymentWorks.

Choosing the Right Fields

  • Problem Type: Select the category that best fits your issue. The options are dynamic based on the User Type you select.
  • Payer Name:
    • Payer: Enter your organization’s name.
    • Vendor: Enter the name of the Payer (your customer) who invited you to register or connect.

Ticket Content

  • Subject: Provide a brief description of the issue.
  • Description: Offer as much detail as possible, including:
    • Error messages.
    • Steps you took before encountering the issue.
    • What you were trying to accomplish.
    • How we can reproduce the issue.
    • List all questions or concerns upfront for a faster resolution.
  • Screenshots: Attach images showing the issue (if applicable). Screenshots are highly encouraged.
  • File Uploads: Attach non-sensitive files, such as JPEG, PNG, PDF, CSV, or XLSX. If you’re unable to attach files while creating the ticket, you can email them after receiving a response from the PaymentWorks Support Team.

Confirmation Email

After submitting your support ticket, you will receive a confirmation email with your ticket number. Use this ticket number to track your inquiry or reference it in any follow-up communications with PaymentWorks Support.


Replies to Support Tickets

To ensure your reply is affiliated with the correct ticket, always respond directly within the ticket thread.

⚠️ Important: Do not send emails to support-1@paymentworks.com/hs-inbox.com, as this is an unmanaged case management inbox. Replies sent to this address will not be processed or associated with your ticket.

If you need assistance with a previously resolved ticket:

  1. Create a new support ticket.
  2. Provide a summary of your prior concerns.
  3. Include relevant details from the original ticket to help us quickly understand the context and address your issue.
