FAQ

When will I receive my money?

All payments are deposited into your bank account within 24 hours. If you use our Instant Payouts feature, you will receive your funds within 15 minutes.

Note: If your client pays by ACH bank transfer, instead of a debit or credit card, note that the funds take 5-7 days to clear before being processed for a payout.

How can I see how much I will receive on my next payout?

  • You can go to your pending payments dashboard to see the next payout and which client payments are included, or the Payments export type will include spreadsheets for payments as well as deposits. Go to settings > data export to send the email.
  • Payments go to your bank account on file every day at noon PT and it takes your bank 1-2 business days to make it available to you. However, if you’d like your payment more quickly, we offer Instant Payouts for an extra 1% processing fee.

Are there any monthly fees or limits?

Absolutely not. You’re welcome to charge as much as you’d like whenever you like. We understand that your payment activity may change from month to month, which is why we do not charge monthly minimums.

What are your processing fees?

The credit card processing fee for PocketSuite is 2.9% + $0.30, no matter what type of card your client uses. It is one of the lowest in the industry and there are no hidden fees.

Do you have a card reader?

PocketSuite currently only supports businesses within the US. However, your clients can pay you from anywhere as long as their credit cards have the Visa, Mastercard, AMEX or Discover card logos. We also accept Apple Pay.
