Nickel Description
We built Nickel because the systems businesses use to move money tend to profit in ways nobody can see. So we publish the economics behind every product we sell, something no other payment processor does, and it's why 25,000+ B2B companies and the accounting firms serving them now run money through us.
On collections, branded links and hosted portals let clients settle invoices by card, ACH, or paper check with nothing to sign up for. On disbursements, an email address is all we need to send funds by ACH, card, wire, or physical check, routed through whatever approval rules your team defines. Costs stay low by design: ACH carries no fee and no volume ceiling, our Core tier bills nothing monthly, chargebacks cost you zero, and domestic cards run a flat 2.9% that can be shifted onto whoever is paying. Each transaction lands in QuickBooks matched line by line, and unused funds accrue 2% APY inside Nickel Balance. Setup runs about five minutes and needs no card.

Free ACH Bank Transfers Make Nickel A Godsend For Small Businesses Date: Nov 13 2025
Summary: Ever since Quickbooks started charging for ACH banks transfers, I've been on the lookout for a new platform that does not charge for this. I have a small wedding photography business (Kyle Carnes Photography) and I hate giving away money needlessly to credit card companies.
Then I found Nickel, which not only doesn't charge for ACH bank transfers, but they also allow adding a 3% processing fee to all credit card payments. There is also no subscription fee. This is huge for my business.
I also love that the platform is so intuitive and easy to use. It doesn't have a bunch of feature bloat. Just quick and easy invoicing and payment processing.
You can get to sending out your first invoice within minutes with your business branding and easy payment options.
While ACH payments can take a few days to enter my bank, this is normal for the industry, so it's to be expected and doesn't take any longer than other platforms.
If you're looking for a more feature-rich platform with accounting and all that then Nickel possibly might not be for you. But if you just want to simply send competent invoices and circumvent credit card processing fees then Nickel fits the bill.Positive: Easy to use ACH bank transfer processing. The option to automatically add 3% to all credit card transactions.
Negative: There is no mobile application. The website is nearly unusable on mobile, which is a real shame. It needs a mobile app ASAP so users can send invoices on the go.

Great Product and Great Cost Savings Edited: Jul 16 2026
Summary: If you are looking for a great way to invoice clients, I would not hesitate to try Nickel. It has saved us at least $1,000 this year and my clients say it is easy to use and they like it.
Positive: Easy to set up and utilize. It has taken me a little while to figure out how to organize things best so that I can find invoices easily, but that was user error and now that I've figured that out its been smooth sailing.
Negative: I wish it had a line by line where it added up the invoices for you - for instance if you are adding three invoices - it has a line for each one and adds up the total. Just keeps human error out of it.
