Bank transfer and bank accounts
Bank transfer lets customers pay by transferring the order amount to your bank account. Payments > Bank accounts holds the accounts your customers can transfer to, and lets you turn the bank transfer payment method on or off.
These accounts are for customer payments only. The account that receives your Zid Payments payouts is managed separately in Zid Payments settings.
Viewing this page needs the staff permission to view or manage payment options. Adding, editing and deleting accounts, and turning bank transfer on or off, need the permission to manage payment options.
