Confirm an order was paid by bank transfer
EcomWeb does not know on its own when money arrives in your account. When you see the money, you mark the order as paid, then confirm the order to start preparing the goods.
Find the orders waiting for money
- Go to Orders.
- Click the Search and filter field at the top of the list.
- Choose Payment from the list that appears.

The list also includes COD orders where the money hasn’t been collected. Open each order to check its payment method.

Frequently asked questions
Is the customer notified when I mark an order as paid?
No. This only changes the order's status in the dashboard.
What if I marked an order as paid by mistake?
You can't move it back to Pending payment. From Paid, the status can only move to Refunded, when the order has been cancelled or the goods have been returned.
Is a bank transfer order cancelled automatically if the customer doesn't transfer?
No. The order stays at Pending payment until you mark it as paid or cancel the order.
Can staff confirm payments?
Yes. The Store owner, Administrators and Staff can all change an order's payment status.
