What is an on-account payment?
An on-account payment is an unapplied amount posted to your account. These payments are created from check overpayments when there are no remaining open balances, and the check amount is more than the statement amount due. They are also generated when the remittance information is not provided or is incorrect and we are unable to determine the correct invoice(s) to be paid.

Payments & Invoices
Information to include with payments by check
Please include the following information when mailing check payments:
- Account number
- Invoice number
- The amount allocated to each invoice
This will ensure your checks are accurately applied as you intend.
Why do I have multiple invoices for one order?
Pepper sends an invoice for each shipment made, so if it takes more than one shipment to complete your order, you will receive more than one invoice. You are only charged shipping once per order, which will appear on the first invoice. We never include digital items in calculating shipping fees, although digital items may appear on a list of products with the first invoice.
