Hi team, appreciate wanting to hear news from us here and apologies we've not checked back in sooner. Our product team have done initial work to understand the work involved in enabling your customers to pay you through Customer Statements. This is a priority for them and we have plans to develop this capability, however they need to balance this work with other key priorities. While we'll leave the idea Under review for the time being, as soon as there's an update we'll share this all with you, here.

    It doesn’t make sense that there isn’t yet available. Please fast track.

  • Sarah Sargent commented  ·   ·  Report

    This has been ongoing for some time. What sort of timescale are we talking Xero.

  • Nikki Devine commented  ·   ·  Report

    This is a really basic omission which, having just switched to Xero, I'm really frustrated about. I hope it gets added very soon.

  • Luke Hutchinson commented  ·   ·  Report

    I can't believe I've just stumbled across this as a feature that doesn't already exist.

    In my view it's very primative that with xero you can't add a link to 'pay now' when sending statement e-mails. It is 2025.. this should be already available... come on xero developers, please get this enacted. There's businesses like ours setting up direct debits for customers, growing sending an ever increasing number of invoices, team Xero should be treating this as a priority.

    Competitiors already do this?! Although I suppose if it's left long enough, enough folk will start looking elsewhere for accountancy programmes and there won't be a need for this anymore!

    any news on this option to add Pay Now link to the statements please ?

  • Marissa Lanyon commented  ·   ·  Report

    Yes, update please. This function is a must for those of us who have customers/clients who are required to pay multiple invoices at once. Can we please get this function added ASAP.

  • Linda Kennington commented  ·   ·  Report

    When adding credit card payment options such as stripe, how come it can only be applied to invoices and not statements? We as a company sometimes pay our accounts at EOM with credit cards, but if any of our suppliers use Xero and we want to pay them by credit card, I have to call them to pay for the account in full as the payment options is only for an invoice and we may have received 10 invoices from that supplier in that month. I don't want to pay 10 times and potentially pay a fee ten times. I have looked to see if this is an option, but it doesn't seem to be.

    I use custom templates for our business and I created a workaround by using a paypal and stripe link in the footer of the template (not in the body, links don't work) which isn't perfect as amounts need to be manually entered... but better than nothing! if anyone wants help with custom templates I have evolved into someone of an expert!! As some of the fundamentals are missing by Xero. so have had to workaround a LOT. Necessity makes inventors of us all!

    I've spent a few hours trying to get the Pay Now button on statements, such a basic function that I'm surprised it's not available.
    After emailing Pin and searching Xero & the web for answers, this feed tells me it's not possible. This is a MUST HAVE.

  • Matthew Baker commented  ·   ·  Report

    8 months since the last update Xero. Seems such basic functionality whilst all updates have been focussed on other stuff. The Xero users are really telling you where priorities lie but feel ignored.

  • matt grippo commented  ·   ·  Report

    hi xero
    whats the update on a PAY NOW button or link on statements
    Its crazy thats its still not available

    Can you please give estimated time on this

  • Ingrid Hammendorp commented  ·   ·  Report

    "Early days"???? this is a post from Feb 2024, it's now Aug 2024!!! How difficult can it be???
    If I missed the solution for this issue, please let me know. Thanks

  • MARY-ANN BEGGS commented  ·   ·  Report

    This is such an important upgrade to Xero. Please look at implementing this urgently, as it seems a lot of people are keen to be able to use this!

  • Jessica Noonan commented  ·   ·  Report

    Please update us regarding adding pay now to statements this would be very helpful for our customers

  • Nikki Velinsky commented  ·   ·  Report

    Hi Kelly, any further updates on this? It was suggested 12 years ago and your update in February said it was being looked into, would be good to have the option a little bit quicker than the 12 years it took to be considered?

  • Sarah Hands commented  ·   ·  Report

    the majority of our customers have lots of small invoices, presently, we are processing 30+ receipts to just one customer each month, our customers would love us more if we could speed up the process of account settlement for them and of course, it would enable us to spend less time reconciling our transactions. This is a much needed improvement that I hope the development team can roll out quickly
