Accept card and ACH payments on cleaning invoices through Stripe Connect — funds settle to your connected account, separate from your Clean Scheduler subscription.
Clean Scheduler uses Stripe in two ways that are easy to confuse. Your platform subscription (Starter, Business, or Pro) is billed to your business through Stripe. Customer payments — cards and ACH on cleaning invoices — flow through your own Stripe Connect account and settle to you directly.
From Billing → Accept card payments, complete a one-time Stripe Connect onboarding. Once approved, open invoices can include secure pay links your customers use to pay by card or bank transfer.
Many cleaning companies start by recording cash, check, and Zelle payments manually. Enable Stripe when you are ready for card acceptance. On Business+, bank deposit matching helps reconcile Zelle and ACH even when cards are not turned on.
Straight answers for cleaning business owners evaluating Clean Scheduler.
No. Quotes, scheduling, invoicing, and manual payment recording work without Stripe. Connect is only needed when you want card or ACH checkout links on invoices.
Your Clean Scheduler subscription is a separate Stripe charge from payments your clients make through your connected account. Client funds settle to your bank via Stripe Connect.
Yes. When Stripe Connect is enabled, customers can pay open invoices via card or ACH depending on your Connect configuration and the checkout options enabled on the invoice.
