How to Choose the Best Payment Methods for Your Invoices

Last updated: 25 March 2026

Choose payment methods that match how your clients pay other suppliers and that you can reconcile reliably. State accepted methods and full instructions on the invoice so payers can remit without contacting you for details.

Common payment methods

• Domestic bank transfer (routing and account, sort code and account, BSB and account, IBAN: whatever your banks use)
• Instant transfer aliases where they exist in your market
• Card payment link if you have one
• Cash in person when it still happens for small jobs

Selection criteria

• Transaction and processing fees you will absorb or pass on
• Alignment with how your clients pay similar vendors
• Cheques and paper instruments: declining in many markets; offer only if your operations support them
