Step 2. (Recommended) Embed payments and get enhanced data synchronization

Follow the steps below to take advantage of the expanded features and services available. You will have the ability to embed Payment Links in invoices and templates in Intacct, set up Auto Payment rules to automatically charge invoices, get enhanced data synchronization between your accounts, and more.

  2. Click Download BlueSnap Package.

  3. Extract the BlueSnap Zip file to your computer

There will be two files contained:

  • The BlueSnap Package file - This file will enable more efficient and comprehensive data exchanges with your Sage-Intacct account, including the ability to utilize your Sage-Intacct invoice PDF.
  • The BlueSnap Application file - This file will add payment processing to your Sage-Intacct account, enabling you to embed Payment Links in invoices and more. Your Sage-Intacct account must have Platform Services to install this package.
