There are multiple ways to pay Invoices in Expensify. Let’s go over each method below.

# How to Pay Invoices

1. Sign in to your [Expensify web account](www.expensify.com).
2. Click on the Invoice you’d like to pay to see the details.
3. Click on the **Pay** button.
4. Follow the prompts to pay through one of the following methods.

### ACH bank-to-bank transfer

To use this payment method, you must have a [business bank account connected to your Expensify account](https://help.expensify.com/articles/expensify-classic/bank-accounts-and-payments/bank-accounts/Connect-US-Business-Bank-Account).

**To pay with an ACH bank-to-bank transfer:**
1. Sign in to your [Expensify web account](www.expensify.com).
2. Go to the **Home** or **Reports** page and locate the Invoice that needs to be paid.
3. Click the **Pay** button to be redirected to the Invoice.
4. Choose the ACH option from the drop-down list.

**Fees:** None

### Credit or Debit Card
This option is available to all US and International customers receiving an invoice from a US vendor with a US business bank account.

**To pay with a credit or debit card:**
1. Sign in to your [Expensify web account](www.expensify.com).
2. Click on the Invoice you’d like to pay to see the details.
3. Click the **Pay** button.
4. Enter your credit card or debit card details.

**Fees:** 2.9% credit card payment fee.

### Venmo
If both you and the vendor must have Venmo connected to Expensify, you can pay the Invoice by following the steps outlined [here](https://help.expensify.com/articles/expensify-classic/bank-accounts-and-payments/Third-Party-Payments#setting-up-third-party-payments).

**Fees:** Venmo and Paypal.me charges may apply.


### Pay outside of Expensify
If you are unable to pay using one of the above methods, you can still mark the Invoice as paid. This will update its status to indicate that the payment was made outside Expensify.

**To mark an Invoice as paid outside of Expensify:**
1. Sign in to your [Expensify web account](www.expensify.com).
2. Click on the Invoice you’d like to pay to see the details.
3. Click the Pay button.
4. Choose **I’ll do it manually**.

**Fees:** None.
