Currently, the only way to add a new ACH payment method to a client's account when using the Stripe ACH payment gateway is when physically paying an invoice. Recommend adding the ability for clients to add a new ACH bank account from the client interface Payment Methods screen, so that a new bank account can be set as the default payment method ahead of any future planned recurring or automated invoices.

Currently, ACH bank accounts can only be deleted and/or set as the default payment method from the client interface Payment Methods screen when using the Stripe ACH payment gateway.

I love the idea of adding a Stripe ACH payment option directly from the payment methods screen. It could really streamline user experience and help businesses manage cash flow more effectively. Also, considering how many users prefer direct bank transfers these days, this feature could attract even more clients to WHMCS. Great suggestion! Play Hollow Knight for fun: https://hollowknight.io

That's a really smart suggestion! It's a bit clunky having to go through the invoice process just to add a new ACH payment. Giving clients more control over their payment methods directly from the Payment Methods screen would definitely streamline things. I imagine a lot of users, especially smaller businesses, would appreciate that flexibility. I bet the guys over at [Football Bros](https://footballbrosfree.com) would find this useful for managing their subscriptions!

Our clients are known to us and if I have somebody who wants to give me a direct routing number and account number, I wish to be able to accept that on the admin side without having to do the validation part (logging into the online banking or doing the test deposits). I thoroughly recognize the security benefits of the more secure approach, but there are times where we don't need that level of authentication.

I support adding stripe ach payment methods directly from the payment screen for better client convenience. like AI Prompt Generator https://generatepromt.net

Agreed. The benefit of ACH is that it's cheaper for us, when customers are only presented with a credit card option, it's not encouraging them to pay with ACH. This functionality needs to be there. I'm not sure why it isn't.
