Charge a customer credit card (New online payments experience)

Collect invoice payments in Wave by sending an invoice for online payment or by manually charging a customer's credit card.

You can use a customer's credit card issued outside your business’s country. The customer's bank processes the payment in the invoice currency and handles any currency conversion.
