Charge the contact - Charge the contact by creating a new invoice. The Contact's account will be debited, and the account balance will be increased. 
Credit the contact - Create a credit note against the contact's account, therefore, decreasing the
account balance (amount due to the company). Credit notes credit the account.  
Record payment - Register a payment for the account either against a CRM.COM invoice or for
an external reference (i.e. not a CRM.COM invoice). Payments credit the account. 
Refund the contact - Refunds are used to return money to contacts; e.g. when a contact returns goods purchased, and they are refunded in cash, their account must be debited instead of credited. A refund debits contact accounts.
Top-up money - Top-up the contact’s account or wallet with a specific amount of money. Top-ups credit an account.

Payment Methods and Refund Methods

  • A payment method represents the way a contact can credit their account or wallet. Payment methods are defined at the level of the Contact, and it is mandatory to define at least one payment method per contact. A pre-defined list of payment methods is supported, which includes:
    CASH
    BANK_TRANSFER
    CARD
    ACCOUNT_DEBIT
    WALLET
    CRM.COM Wallet

A contact can have multiple payment methods registered in CRM.COM. A ‘primary’ payment method can exist, and an optional ‘backup’ payment method can also be specified. The primary payment method is used by default in online (automatic) payments, and if the payment fails, then the backup method is used. Payment methods can be added, updated and removed at any time.

Primary payment method
This is the contact's preferred method of payment. This is applicable and mandatory if an online payment method is selected (i.e. Card, Wallet, Account Debit) but not required for offline payment methods (i.e. Cash and Bank Transfer).
