How Our New Payments Dispute Dashboard Makes Business Easier

If you've ever faced payment disputes while running an online business, you know how much they can slow you down. Previously, this might have meant pausing your work, sifting through emails, and switching between various systems to manage everything. Recognizing this challenge, we introduced the new Dispute Dashboard in Kajabi Payments.

Here’s What’s New

• Keep Track Easily: It’s easy to lose track of where things stand with disputes. Our new dashboard shows you the status of each dispute, from start to finish. You’ll know exactly where things stand and how long you have to respond, which helps you plan better and worry less.
• Everything in One Place: The Dispute Dashboard gives you all the details of each dispute directly on your dashboard. This means less digging and more clarity. You can see what’s going on and decide what to do next without having to leave your dashboard.
• Respond Without the Hassle: Now, you can handle everything directly from the dashboard. This cuts down on the back and forth and lets you resolve disputes without leaving the page. It’s about making your workflow smoother, so you can get back to your business faster.

Navigating Payment Disputes In Real Life

Dealing with payment disputes is tough, especially if you’re creating and selling digital products. It often feels like the odds are against you. That’s why we rolled out the Dispute Dashboard in Kajabi Payments—to give you a fair shot at managing and resolving these issues, so you can protect your hard-earned money and your products.

Exclusive to Kajabi Payments

This dashboard is tailored to protect your revenue and simplify how you handle payment disputes. Log into your Kajabi account, explore the Payment Dispute Dashboard, and experience how it can make business easier.

For creators, selecting the right payment processor is a big decision that impacts the core of your operations. Kajabi Payments is designed to align with your needs, simplifying how you get paid so you can focus on growing your business. Let’s clear up some misconceptions and outline the real advantages of using Kajabi Payments.

‍

Myth #1: Kajabi Payments is more expensive than Stripe.

Not at all. We keep our fees in line with Stripe's, ensuring you get competitive rates that fit within industry standards. Curious about the details? Learn more about Kajabi Payments fees here or check out our regional pricing for the United States, Australia, Canada, and United Kingdom. 

‍

Myth #2: I don’t need to use Kajabi Payments because I have a bookkeeper.

Think of Kajabi Payments as a partner for your bookkeeper, not a replacement. It keeps all your financial transactions neatly in one place, which not only simplifies what your bookkeeper has to handle but also meshes smoothly with major accounting software like Xero and QuickBooks Online. This setup minimizes manual data entry and boosts efficiency. Managing your finances becomes a whole lot easier. Learn how to make the most of this feature here. 

‍

Myth #3: Kajabi Payments only offers monthly payouts.

Flexibility is key when you’re growing a business, and cash flow is king. That’s why with Kajabi Payments, you can choose how often you get paid—daily, weekly, or monthly. Whatever works best for you. Find out more about your payout options here.

‍

Myth #4: Managing sales tax on your own is the cheapest way to go.

Many believe that handling sales tax manually saves money, but this method can be risky and lead to unexpected costs. Automating sales tax with Kajabi Sales Tax, powered by our trusted partner Quaderno, is a more efficient choice. This system minimizes errors and ensures compliance with tax regulations, saving you time and preventing costly penalties. By automating, you maintain accuracy easily and stay up to date with the latest tax laws. Interested in taking control of your sales tax management? Learn more about Kajabi Sales Tax here.

‍

Myth #5: Kajabi Payments only supports one-time payments.

This is a common misconception. In reality, Kajabi Payments supports not just one-time payments, but also subscriptions and ongoing payment plans. This comprehensive capability allows you to manage all types of transactions seamlessly with a single system, ensuring you can meet the diverse needs of your customers without any hassle. For guidance on how to set up subscriptions and payment plans with Kajabi Payments, click here.

‍

Myth #6: Using Kajabi Payments is the same as using Stripe.

It’s actually quite different. Kajabi Payments is integrated right into our system, unlike Stripe, which can feel like just another system to manage. Our solution is designed to be part of a cohesive, all-in-one platform, simplifying your operations significantly. See how Kajabi Payments compares to Stripe here.

‍

Myth #7: Only accepting credit and debit cards is enough.

With Kajabi Payments, you unlock essential payment options that can transform your checkout process. Digital wallets like Apple Pay and Google Pay have been shown to increase conversions by up to 30%. Additionally, you can offer Buy Now, Pay Later options like Afterpay and Klarna, enhancing flexibility for your customers and further boosting sales potential. These features are not just conveniences—they're powerful tools to expand your market reach and meet evolving customer expectations at checkout.

‍

Myth #8: Switching to Kajabi Payments will throw off your current sales setup.

The transition to Kajabi Payments is designed to be straightforward, ensuring that it integrates smoothly into your current setup without disrupting your sales momentum. Interested in making the switch and experiencing the benefits for yourself? Learn how to convert your offers to Kajabi Payments here.

‍

Myth #9: Setting up an offer with Payment Plans is the same as using Afterpay or Klarna.

While Payment Plan options are great, Afterpay and Klarna, available exclusively through Kajabi Payments, offer unique benefits. These services pay you upfront, which means your cash flow remains consistent. They also manage the risk and responsibility of payment collection, freeing you from the hassle of chasing down payments. By enabling Buy Now, Pay Later options through Kajabi Payments, you not only increase accessibility but also provide your customers with more flexible payment options, making your digital products more attractive and accessible.

Myth #10: Kajabi Payments lacks direct invoicing capabilities. 

Actually, Kajabi Payments includes an invoicing feature that allows you to create, send, and manage invoices directly from your dashboard. This powerful tool helps you get paid efficiently, eliminating the need for separate invoicing software and simplifying your payment process.
