Introduction to the QuickBooks Integration by Basys
Basys, a prominent name in the payment technology sector with over 20 years of experience, has recently introduced a transformative integration with QuickBooks. This new feature, available via the iQ Pro+ platform, seeks to streamline the process of accepting payments for businesses using QuickBooks Online and Desktop. The integration allows users to embed secure payment links directly into invoices, significantly minimizing manual input, reducing processing fees, and enhancing cash flow.
Streamlining Payment Processes
For many businesses, the challenge of managing invoicing and receiving payments can be overwhelming. Traditional methods often require multiple steps, leading to delayed payments and increased administrative burden. The Basys QuickBooks integration directly addresses these pain points by offering a plug-in that allows for seamless payment processing within the familiar QuickBooks interface. By enabling businesses to accept card and ACH payments directly from invoices, the need for external tools or manual entry has been eliminated, thus simplifying the user experience dramatically.
Brad Oddo, Chief Executive Officer at Basys, articulated the necessity for this integration, stating, "Business owners shouldn't have to leave QuickBooks or use a third-party portal just to get paid." He emphasizes that this solution effectively bridges the gap while providing a branded, professional payment experience directly within the tools business owners already rely on.
Key Features of the Integration
The new QuickBooks integration offers a multitude of features designed to enhance operational efficiency:
1.
Direct Payments: Users can now accept credit, debit, and ACH payments straight from invoices without the typical hassles of manual entry.
2.
Partial Payments: It allows the flexibility of accepting partial payments, especially significant for larger balances or recurring clients.
3.
Admin Fees: Businesses have the option to apply custom administrative fees, which can help offset costs associated with transactions.
4.
Custom-Branded Payment Portal: This not only enhances trust but also adds a layer of professionalism to the payment experience.
5.
Hands-On Support: Basys provides comprehensive onboarding and training from experts, ensuring businesses are well-equipped to utilize this functionality from day one.
These features make the integration particularly beneficial for accounts receivable teams, bookkeepers, and business owners who demand more control and customization in their payment processes. Due to its tailored design, it aligns perfectly with existing AR workflows without necessitating drastic changes to current practices.
The Power of iQ Pro+ Platform
What makes this integration even more compelling is its place within the iQ Pro+ platform— a comprehensive suite launched by Basys earlier this year. iQ Pro+ is not just about handling payments; it includes a full range of features such as virtual terminal tools, recurring billing, invoicing, customer management, and detailed reporting. All these tools are designed to aid business owners in simplifying their financial operations.
Chris Borchers, Chief Technology Officer at Basys, highlighted the importance of this integration by noting, "QuickBooks is a great tool, but it wasn't built for payments. iQ Pro+ bridges that gap with branded payment tools, admin fee flexibility, and real-time visibility—all integrated right within the QuickBooks experience."
Future Developments and Conclusion
Beyond the QuickBooks integration, Basys is committed to expanding its offerings further, with plans to integrate with other major platforms, including Epic, showcasing its ongoing investment in creating an interconnected experience for merchants. For anyone interested in simplifying their business transactions while maintaining control and efficiency, this new integration is definitely worth exploring.
