Billing & Payment Ideas

We would like to have the ability to use Cardinal Commerce's 3D secure technology on our payment page hosted by Zuora. 

We would like to have the opportunity to not send any automatic reminders on specific invoices. For example, if we have an ongoing discussion with a customer regarding a specific invoice we would like to silent that invoice so that no further reminders are being sent on that invoice. However, the customer may have other unpaid invoices which should recieve reminders. In this case you do not want to change the customer's communication profile, but only the invoice which is under dispute. 

Zuora recommending setting up communication profiles to filter these customers. But the issue is not the entire customer account nor the entire customer's outstanding payment, but only a specific invoice. If we would send an automatic notification regarding service termination that would harm our relationship with the customer. Basically, it would be a good idea if you could turn off notifications on specific invoices rather than change number of notifications on the customer account. 

Thank you.

This would be useful so we can allow users to update their payment methods and re-enter their CVV when they change their Expiration Date. 

Currently Subscriptions date (CED, SAD, CAD) can be updated both in the UI and through API as long as there's no amendment (and it's not been billed yet).

This is a bit restrictive in some cases, and in particular in this one: the subscription is activated, unbilled yet, and transferred to another account. Then on the new owning account, it's impossible ti update the dates...In orde to do so, the transfer amendment has to be deleted, the subscription updated, and a new transfer amendment re-created.

In a context where data must be audited, deletion of objects should not be permitted... and here we are in a situation where we have no other choice...

The proposal is to relax conditions under which update of subscription dates can be performed.

When we email an invoice to a customer, a box pops up to confirm the email address for the invoice delivery.  It gives an option to "Include Additional Email Addresses".  However, when sending a payment receipt this option is not available.  It would be nice to have this in case an additional email address is also needed for receipts.

Thanks!

Currently when payment runs are completed you are shown the number of and amount of unprocessed payments.  I would like a report that showed me what invoices those were or what accounts those belong to.  That would help me to see what is going on with those accounts and why payments are not processing.

Thank you!

Create account currently accepts just the raw credit card details or a HPM id. It would be ideal to be able to create an account with an Apple Pay payment method in an atomic create account call.

Today the only way to create an account with an Apple Pay payment method is to use Actions and Objects. Any merchant that's gone the route of using the atomic/friendly create account will face considerable effort to add support for Apple Pay.

Currently, the invoice split can only do percentage split.  It would be great if we could have the option to split invoices by dollar amounts, it would save a lot of time especially when have to have all percentage splits equal to 100%

As of today, we do not recieve any notification if we post invoices and the deliver of email fails. This could mean that our customers never recieves their invoices. In addition, we would have no idea if any invoices fails to be delivered. 

Hi,

We have a problem with the "Hosted Domain" required field on the Hosted Payment Page configuration page. This limits the payment page to only one domain, which poses increasing developer overhead for us, because we have multiple different test environments, which should share the same Payment Page. Instead we have to create a new payment page for every new test domain we want to use.

This does not scale, as we have to update an increasing number of payment pages every time we want to roll out a change to the styling or other functionality of the page that needs to be changed through the Hosted Pages settings.

This is also preventing us from using developer workflows like Heroku's Review Apps, which spins a new instance of our application on a custom subdomain for each new feature we're developing.

Thus we'd like to request for the "Hosted Domain" configuration field to be upgraded to support adding wildcards and multiple domains, or even turn off that check entirely. This would greatly help us in our Zuora developer and testing workflows.

Thank you

Due to European portability rules, merchants need to know the credit card issuing country

It would be helpful to have this information returned in Zuora HPM response or in payment method transaction log.

Merchants require the ability to change between payment methods.

This involves 3 api calls to change the payment method, gateway  and set the auto-pay flag.

It would be helpful and timesaving if we could make the change in a single api call.

We'd really like the ability to be able to set these default settings for each new bill run that is created. In particular, we would like Do not email invoices with 0 total enabled by default, as we run the business risk of sending confusing 0 dollar invoices if it stays unchecked.



Thank you!

Hi,

Need the ability for ZUora to send bounce back notification to tenant's admin users whenever an email is send to the customer but the email address is invalid.

Thanks,

Hi,

Unfortunately Zuora has some limitations in barcode rendering:

- Orientation: You can't create a barcode with a vertical orientation (only horizontal allowed).

- Dimension setting: You can't resize the barcode dimension; if you downsize the cell, Zuora automatically cuts the exceeding pieces. This may cause serious problems to the barcode reader.

It would be very useful if the barcode rendering was improved allowing the rotation and resizing.

Thanks,

Luigi
