How can I ensure my clients don't pay using my accounting software invoice?

If you send your invoices through your accounting software, it's possible that the PDF copy of your invoice still includes a payment link for making payments through your software. If this is the case, then your client may accidentally pay using that payment system instead of Forwardly, potentially causing unexpected fees or delays. 

To fix this issue, you will need to remove any "Pay Now" or "Pay Invoice" buttons or links from your invoices. Here's how to fix it for each leading accounting software platform Forwardly supports.
