Here’s what other pros think of Pay-by-Refund
Pay-by-Refund allows me to maintain my fees while allowing my clients to use my services even if they don't have the funds to pay me upfront. I get paid automatically through direct deposit and my clients can choose the secure payment method that is right for their situation. Pay-by-Refund is very secure, fast, and convenient.

Pay-by-Refund is a great choice for me and my clients. My clients love the option to choose how they want to pay me, and it gives me the flexibility to ensure I get paid by clients who might not be able to pay me upfront. With Pay-by-Refund, I don't have to think about payment anymore.

I encourage all my clients to use Pay-by-Refund because they don’t have to worry about covering the fee for my services and still get their returns done when convenient for them. The setup for each return is straight to the point and only takes a couple clicks. Once the return is processed through the IRS, I get my fees and clients get their refund. I didn’t have to think about it.
