"Simple and Effective Payment Processor"

4.5/5

What do you like best about 8am CPACharge?

CPACharge is a simple and cost-effective payment processor. We primarily use it for clients on monthly retainer, and it's easy to input their bank information and set up a recurring transaction. While there are ways to send it to clients, we only utilize it internally when we have been authorized to debit accounts directly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about 8am CPACharge?

It is less effective for larger payments, as there is a $5000 limit on e-check transactions without prior approval. It would also save a lot of time if clients' information could be saved without creating a recurring transaction; for example, if we charge a client frequently in different amounts, we have to re-enter their bank account information manually each time. If you send a link to a client to input their own information, you cannot remove the option to pay by credit card, which incurs additional fees. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering 8am CPACharge:

If you are simply looking for a way to process payments internally, this is a simple and cost-effective option. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is 8am CPACharge solving and how is that benefiting you?

The greatest pro is how inexpensive it is to process charges, since there is a flat fee but no percentage. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Easy to use and everything you need! A real asset to our firm!"

5/5

What do you like best about 8am CPACharge?

The ease of use, recurring invoices and the updates for expiring cards keep me in the drivers seat! I enjoy being able to build out my cashflow based on recurring transactions I know will be coming in over the next few days! Updating client payments and timing is a great option as opposed to having to build out a whole new payment workflow. The fees are manageable and more beneficial than any other option we looked at! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about 8am CPACharge?

Low integration options for firm management workflow. I would absolutely love to see an integration with Financial Cents! The software is really great as is so there is not a lot to complain about! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is 8am CPACharge solving and how is that benefiting you?

Monthly cashflow freedom knowing I don't have to keep charging clients, it is all set on a recurring structure so the clients know what to expect and all branded so they know where the money is going! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Lacks integrations"

1/5

What do you like best about 8am CPACharge?

Reasonable price. Great support. Able to use the link with the "Pay Now" button in Xero (this is not a unique feature, and is available with pretty much every payment platform). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about 8am CPACharge?

No integrations w/ Xero or QBO making the backend A/R reconciliation painful, inefficient, waste of time. Separate reporting and payment of fees for cards vs. ACH cause much confusion and inefficiency. Lacks A/P functionality.

Outdated backend technology. There are much better, cheaper, better-integrated payment methods out there. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering 8am CPACharge:

Check out Plooto Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is 8am CPACharge solving and how is that benefiting you?

I keep our CPACharge account to take the occasional card payment (once every 2 or 3 months). Usually, I require all clients to pay via ACH and use a platform that integrates with Xero (for A/R and A/P) and costs much less. I'm saving money now that I'm using CPA Charge less.

"CPA CHARGE Made life blissful for the last 2 years"

5/5

What do you like best about 8am CPACharge?

The ability to be able to take credit/debit cards or e-checks over the phone in the COVID world was great. We have transitioned from taking payment at the end of the process to taking all payments before we prepare the tax return. We have also transitioned most of the accounting and payroll clients to auto payments on a certain day of the month. So no more chasing clients for payment Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about 8am CPACharge?

The price for an echeck at $2 processing is a little high. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering 8am CPACharge:

Review the fees. Also roll out completely as your payment option, make sure you place it on your invoices, customers will pay online. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is 8am CPACharge solving and how is that benefiting you?

Getting prepayments easily. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Professional & Easy"

4/5

What do you like best about 8am CPACharge?

The receipts that are printed for clients are very professional. I also like to be able to send clients a payment link. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about 8am CPACharge?

It is time-consuming to enter the client's information including name, address, city, state, zip. It would be nice to exclude the address and/or just enter the zip. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering 8am CPACharge:

We made the switch from using Square, if you're looking to do the same then take a good look at CPA Charge, it will likely meet your needs! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is 8am CPACharge solving and how is that benefiting you?

Sending the payment link has eliminated excess mailings/postage. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is 8am CPACharge solving and how is that benefiting you?

I am able to instantly charge my clients as I am closing them on the sales call. They get a receipt right away and we can start working on their engagement. I was always waiting for the client to make the next move, but now I take care of moving them through my process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Very Easy To Use and Great Support"

5/5

What do you like best about 8am CPACharge?

The customer support was awesome. The customer rep was able to tailor the charges to our business model. Their software perfectly integrated our practice management software as well. The fees are competitive with other big processors. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about 8am CPACharge?

There are no reminder features for outstanding balances. Setup cannot be done on your own and requires customer support. There are no re-entry features for the customer to re-enter bank or credit card accounts which sometimes lead to failed charges. Failed charge fees are significant. If you can send credit card scanners rather than a plastic block as a welcome package, that would be great too. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is 8am CPACharge solving and how is that benefiting you?

Currently, we inquired about the re-entry feature. If that issue is fixed, that would be great. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Best credit card servicing I have seen and used in the last 10 years"

5/5

What do you like best about 8am CPACharge?

The ability for our clients to pay their bills online anytime! There is also an ease on the backend to easily keep our records straight. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about 8am CPACharge?

I wish the mobile terminal was easier to use and required less typing. Since there is so much typing, it isn't easy on a mobile device. We have found it easier just to process the payments at a computer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering 8am CPACharge:

You won't regret using CPA charge as your merchant! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is 8am CPACharge solving and how is that benefiting you?

Giving customers the ability to pay anytime, anywhere has made payment collecting much easier than with other merchants. The ability to set up reoccurring payments has also been helpful for our monthly clients. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

5/5

What do you like best about 8am CPACharge?

The entire platform is very user-friendly and easy to use both on the firm side and that of our clients. Additionally, the fees are transparent, extremelly competitive, and customer service has been incredible. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about 8am CPACharge?

I'm not too fond of the need to use two separate landing pages for EFT and credit card to charge the 3% processing fee to credit card users. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is 8am CPACharge solving and how is that benefiting you?

"Easy to use for CPAs and reliable source of revenue"

4/5

What do you like best about 8am CPACharge?

The system is fairly straightforward for both end-users and for administrators to set up. You can integrate other accounting systems with the payment system so that invoices include the CPACharge link to make it easy for a user to pay and for you to collect. The platform is relatively simple but works well, and customer service is always available to answer questions. The solution is lower-cost than many providers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about 8am CPACharge?

Payments can sometimes take up to 5 days to be deposited into your account after being made. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is 8am CPACharge solving and how is that benefiting you?

Getting paid by clients using a cloud system is convenient. We are able to receive income from clients across the country fairly quickly and efficiently. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
