# Adding New Accounts

E-Pay lets your customer make their payments using a credit card or through a withdrawal from their checking or savings accounts.

E-Pay lets you set up recurring payments for your customers. This lets you have the payment of a customer’s invoice automatically debited to a credit card or an e-check account that the customer specifies.

You can only have one recurring account for a customer. When new accounts are added, if any existing accounts are set to be recurring, you are prompted and asked if you are sure you want to make the new account a recurring account.

- Active recurring accounts are prefaced with a blue recurring symbol, indicating that the account is an active recurring account. ![](https://cdn.us.document360.io/3f7f8ade-bcb1-4ec8-af25-0c0ad8601afb/Images/Documentation/12991(1).bmp?sv=2026-02-06&spr=https&st=2026-11-14T10%3A41%3A42Z&se=2026-11-14T11%3A41%3A42Z&sr=c&sp=r&sig=7iYOnCjI4yJFrxekx3AZ%2FuWRHgblUIgvAR6vwaP1g2s%3D)
- Inactive recurring accounts are not prefaced with a symbol, but can be actively recurring starting at a later date.
- You can change the recurring status of an account when you first set up a payment account, or when you edit account information.

Notes:

- At this time, Authorize.Net does not accept standard ATM (debit) transactions.
- Shift4 accepts only debit cards (that are treated as credit cards) and credit cards.
- When an account is created using the Tempus PaymentMate payment gateway, a token is returned for future use.
