Recording a payment
- Open the invoice (or find it in the Owing list) and press Record payment.
- Enter the amount — or press Pay the full R… — choose EFT, Cash or Card machine, and add the bank reference if you have one.
- Press Record payment. Part-payments are fine: the invoice shows Part paid until the balance is settled.
Taking card payments online
Customers pay into your own Paystack account — the money never passes through Dentz. Owners and admins set it up:
- In Paystack, go to Settings → API Keys & Webhooks and copy your secret key.
- In Dentz, open Settings → Payments, paste it and press Connect Paystack. We encrypt it and never show it again.
- Copy the Webhook URL for Paystack that Dentz shows you and paste it into the same Paystack page. This is how a payment marks the invoice paid by itself.
From then on, invoices show Pay R… now, and approved quotes with a deposit offer Pay deposit.
Still stuck?
