Note: If your default payment method is Invoice or ACH, you can now purchase additional lines and equipment using a credit card. The credit card will only be used for the initial order. Subsequent payments for items on this order will be moved to your default payment method. Your default payment method will not change to the credit card.

 

This feature is available to users with below profiles of U.S.-based X Series and Editions accounts that pay by invoice, ACH, or credit card. If a user doesn’t see My 8x8 or the Shop tab, please ensure the user has one of these three user profiles- Customer Community QTC Admin, Customer Community Ordering, Customer Community Billing and Ordering.
