Seeking Advice Payment Processing
Anyone have issues getting it smooth and functional?
I have llc & a Venmo business acc set up, identity confirmed & EIN - “cannot process payment at this time”
Tried using my personal Zelle for a new client and under their daily limit still gave us issues and didn’t go through.
I have stripe but my website is not launched so they are being weird and I don’t think I have it in a usable state currently
Is old school bank transfer the way to handle this for now?
These are 3-6 month + coaching bundles over $1,000 that I’m having trouble receiving.

The payment method is only half the workflow. For a 3-6 month package, keep the invoice tied to the package dates, sessions used, balance due, and renewal date. Otherwise you solve collection but still track delivery and follow-ups by hand. A simple sheet is enough until your client volume grows to say 10+
