[Advisors] See Some Example AdvicePay Emails to Clients!
Note: Please note that these are some examples and do not cover an exhaustive list of emails to clients. If you have a custom logo uploaded or include a custom message, emails to your clients will look a bit different. 😀 We recommend setting up a test client to view the full range of emails sent from your firm!
Invitation
If you choose to have us send your client the invitation to get set up on AdvicePay (not required), they'll receive an email that looks like this:

Invoice (for One-Time Payments)
If you choose to have us send your client a single one-time invoice, they'll receive an email that looks like the below.
However, please note that if clients are sent an invoice that has a document attached for signature, they'll receive an eSign Document email instead!
Subject Line: New Invoice from [Company Name]
Invoice (for a One-Time + Subscription payment requested together)
If you choose to have us send your client an upfront one-time invoice paired with a subscription, they'll receive an email that looks like the below.

Refund from [Firm Name]
When an Advisor or a firm issues a refund, clients will receive an email that a refund has been issued. Advisors can issue both partial and full refunds through their account once your payment has finished processing. For ACH payments, this can take between 5-10 business days (bank holidays can extend this by 1 business day). Credit/debit card payments are processed immediately and can be refunded right away.
Subject Line: Refund from [Company Name]
Notice that the Client has been added to AdvicePay (different Advisor or Firm) with an Existing email on file
When a client gets this email it's because they already have an AdvicePay account. This simply shares that the firm, whoever added them, has created a profile with the same email they have on another account already in AdvicePay.
They can still log in and see more than one account when inside their account by using the pulldown arrow on the top left logo. Of course, they can always pay without creating an account or logging in if they prefer.
Subject Line: [Company] Added you to AdvicePay
