FAQ

Common questions

What does Totaum Payments cost?

There is no subscription cost. You pay Stripe's standard processing rates plus a published 0.5% Totaum platform fee — and that's the whole price. No monthly minimum, no gateway fee, no hidden markup.

How do customers pay an invoice?

Every emailed invoice can include a secure pay link. Your customer opens it, sees the invoice summary, and pays by card or ACH bank transfer — no login or account required.

Does Totaum touch my card data?

No. Payments run on Stripe, a PCI DSS Level 1 certified processor. Card details go directly to Stripe and never touch Totaum's servers.

How does the accounting work?

Automatically. Each payment posts to a payments clearing account and applies to the invoice; when Stripe pays out to your bank, Totaum reconciles the payout — cash, processing fees, and all — to the ledger for you.
