I want to update the payment methods of our customers, but I can't find where to update the options or list of the different methods. I can only see the 'Payment Method List' report...
Any advice would be appreciated.

Where to update customer payment method items / description
I’d love to walk you through how to change customers' payment methods in QuickBooks, @VincentHS.
QuickBooks Online ensures users can easily modify existing payment methods to suit clients’ preferences. Take a look at how to gain access to these lists.
- Start at the Gear icon, then choose All lists.
- Select Payment Methods.
- Locate the method, then select the dropdown menu under Action.
- Click Edit after.
If it’s for a specific customer, you can go to his/her profile and change the customer’s preferred payment method. Here’s how:
- Go to the Customers menu, then look for the customer's name and click it.
- Select the Customer Details tab.
- Click Edit.
- Go to the Payments section, then select your proffered option under the Payment Method section.
- Press Save.
In case you want to personalize and add specific details to your sales forms, check out this article for complete instructions: Customize invoices, estimates, and sales receipts in QuickBooks Online.
Leave a comment below if you have any other questions or concerns besides payment methods. I want to make sure everything is taken care of for you. Take care always!

Hello, I am working in Enterprise 2023. I have made inactive several payment methods leaving only 4 payment methods as active. However, when I go to the customer payment screen the inactive payment methods are still populating. Can you tell me how to fix this?

Hey there, @mdyork.
I'm here to help you clear those inactive payment methods. Let's perform some troubleshooting to identify what's causing the issue.
First, I recommend closing and reopening your QuickBooks Desktop (QBDT). If the inactive payment methods still appear, run theVerify/Rebuild tool.Verifywill detect any damaged data.Rebuildwill attempt to fix the damaged data detected. It also allows your QuickBooks software to refresh the data inside the company file. Make sure tocreate a backup copyof your company file before doing the process. Having a backup copy allows you torestoreit to undo the changes.
Follow the steps below on how to verify data:
- On the top menu, clickFile.
- ChooseUtilities.
- SelectVerify Data.
- ClickOKwhen you see the message, QuickBooks detected no problem with your data.
- IfVerifyfinds an issue with your data, you'll be prompted toRebuild Now or View Errors.
- ClickClose or View Errorsand take note of the specific error message.
Next, here's how to rebuild data:
- On the top menu, clickFile.
- ChooseUtilities.
- SelectRebuild Data.
- ClickOKif you receive a prompt to back up your company file.
- ClickOKwhen you get the message, Rebuild has completed and proceed to the next step.
- RunRebuild Dataagain to make sure there's no error.
Moreover,ensure your QBDT is up-to-date. This way, you always have the latest features and fixes. You can also visit this link for additional troubleshooting steps:Tool Hub.

Hello, klrose.
Thanks for joining this thread. I'm here to help change your credit card in your QuickBooks Online (QBO).
If you're referring to changing the credit card or payment method for your QBO subscription, the steps to do this are pretty quick and easy. This can be done by going to Account and settings.
Here's how to do it:
- Sign in to QBO as a primary admin.
- Go to theGear(Settings) icon at the top right.
- SelectBilling & Subscription.
- Next to your payment method, clickEdit ✎.
- This will launch the Wallet list. Enter the credit card information. (Card number, name on card, expiration date, and security code.)
- Make sure to verify the billing address in QuickBooks Online is the same billing address on the credit card statement.
- HitSave Changes.
After saving your change, the payment method will be displayed on theBilling & Subscriptionpage.
To know more about managing and changing credit card or payment method in QBO, check out this article:Manage billing, payment, and subscription info in QuickBooks Online.
In addition, I also recommend visiting our website for more tips and other resources you can use in the future:Self-help articles.

Hello,
A customer used Save a payment method for faster future payments, it is located on their invoice. How do they update their credit card that is on file?
When I go to Sales- Customer (Click on customers account)- Edit - Scroll down to Payment- there is no credit card on file to edit. I can only add a card.

You can update the customer's credit card information by accessing their profile, specifically the Payment section, @cchauca.
Since you're unable to see the existing credit card information to edit, the customer's credit card details may be stored in the payment processing system linked to QuickBooks Online.
In this case, you need to contact our Payments or Merchant Service support to update the said details. Our representatives can make modifications while making sure everything is correct and working.
Here are the steps to connect with us:
- Open your QuickBooks account.
- Navigate to the Help (?) menu.
- Select the Search tab, then click Contact Us.
- Enter your brief concern in the field, then hit Continue after.
- Look for a Get a callback or Chat option.
In case you need guidance about payment processing, ways to stay organized, and keep track of your customers, just check out the following links below:
- QuickBooks Payments FAQ
- Add, edit, delete, or merge customers
If there are any other concerns you'd like assistance with besides changing the customer's bank details, please let me know. We're always here to help, @cchauca.

I tried this, it does not work in any of my -customers accounts.
When I go to the customers account, edit, Payments - it has a drop down box but nothing is in the drop down box. It is blank. I have payments set up in the all list section under payments, the option that are set are Credit Card and Check. These options are not available to me when I am in the customers account trying to pick a payment method... Why is that?

This is what I see. And in the drop down box there is nothing, but I have this set up in payment methods in QB settings, so why isn't it giving me the option to select credit card or check if I have that set up in QB?

Hi there, @bbmhayes.
Welcome back to the community space. Allow me to assist you in returning the option to select a payment method for your customers in QuickBooks Online.
You've mentioned that you've set up the payment methods in the All lists page of your QBO account, and nothing appears when clicking the dropdown box when editing your customer's payment method. I have replicated this on my end and have found a way to fix it.
There are times when your browser's cache fills up too much causing slow performance and malfunctioning features in your browser's web applications, such as QuickBooks Online. To fix this, let's start with accessing QuickBooks Online using incognito mode or a private window.
Here are the shortcut keys to go private mode in a browser:
For Google Chrome / Microsoft Edge / Opera:
- Windows: Ctrl + Shift + N
- Mac: Command ⌘ + Shift + N
For Firefox:
- Windows: Ctrl + Shift + P
- Mac: Command ⌘ + Shift + P
For Safari:
- Shift + Command ⌘ + N
If this works, you can proceed to clear yourbrowser's cache and cookiesto clear temporary files running in your browser that have caused the malfunctions. Otherwise, you can also use othersupported browsersto ensure it runs QBO efficiently.
Additionally,here's an articleyou can browseon how to accept online payments for online and in-person sales with QuickBooks Payments:Receive and process payments in QuickBooks Online with QuickBooks Payments.
You can always leave a reply if you have further concerns about customer's payments in QuickBooks Online. I'd be glad to assist you.
