Accept card and ACH payments directly through Breche by connecting Stripe.
Go to Settings → Billing → Payments and click Connect Stripe. Stripe handles onboarding (business details, bank account, identity verification). When approved, your account shows two capability statuses: Card payments and Bank transfers (ACH). Each can be active, pending, inactive, or unrequested.
When you send an invoice with online payments enabled, the email includes a Pay Online button that opens a dedicated payment page at /pay/<token>. The page accepts card and/or ACH (whichever you have enabled) — no portal login required.
On any invoice, expand Payment methods to toggle card and ACH on or off for just that invoice. Useful for large invoices where you want ACH only (lower fees), or small invoices where you want card only (faster settlement).
Stripe-paid invoice lines show a Refund button on the invoice detail page. The refund processes through Stripe and posts back to the invoice automatically. Stripe payments are otherwise locked — manual edits aren't allowed; refund is the only adjustment path.
Stripe webhooks must point at https://www.breche.us/api/stripe/connect-webhook (with the www.). The bare apex domain redirects, which breaks Stripe's signature verification. If you use a custom webhook, scope it to Connected accounts, not "Your account".
