Frequently Asked Questions
Question: Can UltraCart provide us an invoice for our monthly service?
Answer: UltraCart does not generate invoices for the monthly service billing. Instead, UltraCart sends out a billing email notification to each user on the account that has the "Edit Service Plan" user permission enabled. In addition, the last 6 months of billing line items are listed in the Service Plan page. Upon request, UltraCart can provide a spreadsheet containing your accounts complete billing history.
Question: Does UltraCart provide alternative payment option to Credit Cards, such as PayPal or by Paper Check?
Answer: UltraCart requires a credit card on file for service billing. However, if there is an extenuating circumstance (like the hacked credit card) requiring a temporary solution, prepayments of 6 months or 12 months, via Paypal may be accepted. In order to arrange your prepayment please email billing@ultracart.com
