Connecting CPQ with Alternative Payments is quick and seamless, allowing you to maintain your existing workflows while enhancing payment flexibility for your customers. Follow these steps to get started:
Login to your Alternative Payments dashboard, www.alternativepayments.io

Click on the billing link at the top of the screen, under the Invoices header
Log in to your ConnectWise CPQ dashboard
Navigate to Settings > Document Branding > Order Porter Templates > Select your preferred template > Duplicate Group > Duplicate
3. Insert your Alternative Payments Billing Link into your accepted quotes.
Select the template you would like to edit and click the pencil icon beside EntryPoint
Use Control+F (Windows) or Command+F (Mac) to search "Order Approved" and insert the following code into your email template, see the screenshot below for reference:
<a href="https://[billinglink]/custom-invoice?amount=#Quote.QuoteTotal" style=" color: black; font-weight: bold; text-decoration: underline; ">Click to pay</a>
