Sending Payment Acknowledgements
Payment acknowledgements let the buyer know when their payments have been received. They are most useful when there will be a significant time between when the payment has been received and when the item will be shipped. This often occurs when the item requires additional processing such as engraving or if the item is not yet in hand.
If items are shipped very shortly after receiving payment, a Ship Notification is probably more appropriate and would make a Payment Acknowledgement redundant. In that case, the Payment Acknowledgement button can be hidden from the interface by following the instructions in the Customizing Payment Acknowledgements section.
Amazon prohibits sending payment acknowledgements to buyers so SixBit will not send them for any orders that were originated at Amazon.
The text of a payment acknowledgement may be customized to make it more personal. Customizing Payment Acknowledgements also explains how to edit the Payment Acknowledgement Email Template.
If you would like to send out payment acknowledgements, they may be sent manually or automatically. Payment acknowledgements can be sent out automatically once a payment has been recorded. See Customizing Payment Acknowledgements for information on setting up automatic payment acknowledgements.
