Welcome to the CaseFox-LawPay integration setting page. You may accept online payments from your clients via CaseFox client portals. See Client Online Portal for details.
You have a choice to process payments through LawPay. Only LawPay can be used for accepting payments into client trust accounts. Payments made by your clients through their dedicated CaseFox client portal pages go directly to your LawPay or PayPal accounts. CaseFox does not charge any processing fees for these payments. However, PayPal and LawPay will charge processing fees for each payment. Please refer to your LawPay or PayPal accounts for processing fee details.
Please follow these steps for configuring your CaseFox and LawPay accounts for automatic payments.

How to Accept LawPay Payments through CaseFox
1. Login to your CaseFox account
2. Select the "Client Online Portals" link on the left sidebar under the "Settings/Tools/Reports" link (upper right corner)
3. On the right side, select a client in the dropdown (alternatively, to create a client online URL for all existing clients, leave the default "All Remaining Clients" selected)
4. Optionally, select credit card payment surcharge. When a client pays a certain amount, CaseFox will reduce that payment by this percentage and record the resultant amount against the client's invoice(s). No adjustment of the amount will be made when a client pays into the trust account.
5. Click on the "Create Client Portal URL" button.
6. Click on the URL under the "Payment URL" table heading to make a copy of the URL. You may send this URL to the Client. This URL will also be printed on the Client's invoices (if the Print On Invoices checkbox is selected). This is a permanent URL for this Client
7. When Client visits this URL, they will see their unpaid invoices and all payments previously made. Further, if there are unpaid invoices, the page will also enable the Client to make a payment (which will be processed through your LawPay account). Payments made will be transparently recorded as invoice payments in CaseFox.
8. Client can also make payments to the trust account through this page. A trust payment made through this page will be processed through your LawPay account and upon successful payment, the payment will also be transparently recorded in the CaseFox trust account module.
