Learn how to view and pay your first, monthly, and one-off invoices using a credit card, debit card, or bank transfer.
Overview
You can view, download and pay your monthly and one-off invoices in your Dotdigital account with your saved debit and credit card details.
If you are enrolled into automatic payments with your debit or credit card, your invoice payments are automatically taken.
You can also pay invoices by bank transfer.
If you are paying by bank transfer, you would have set this up and agreed to this form of payment when you signed your service agreement. However, if you don’t want to pay by bank transfer anymore, you can still make your payments by using the other methods that are mentioned in this article.
Account owners and team members with the Can manage account permission enabled can pay invoices in Dotdigital.
