Overview

When you send a payment request from Drake Tax, Drake Accounting, or the Drake Pay Manager, the taxpayer will soon have the option to pay by ACH. With ACH, clients can use their bank account, instead of a credit or debit card, to pay the amount due.

The cost to use ACH is 1% + $0.60 per transaction. Each transaction must be a minimum of $50. The fee is paid by the preparer (merchant), not the client (taxpayer). Other fees may apply – see the submerchant agreement for details.

For details on sending payment requests see Drake Pay – Sending Payment Requests Once the taxpayer has completed their ACH payment, you will see the following statuses in the Drake Pay Manager as the payment is processed.

You can also use the Drake Pay and Drake Refund Pay – Check Payment Request Status feature to see the payment status.

Taxpayer Steps

The taxpayer will see available options when they click Pay Now on their invoice. See Drake Pay – Payment Requests - Taxpayer View for details.
