Our Story

2020

Late Payments

In early 2020, we launched a virtual terminal for easy credit card payments. We aimed to solve common issues for business customers and kept refining our approach based on their feedback. Business owners appreciated being able to offer multiple payment options but struggled with collecting late payments. By late 2020, we identified the root causes: treating payment as the final transaction step, a disconnect post-invoice, and unnecessarily long payment terms in a credit-rich environment. Our findings revealed that 50% of invoices are paid late, often by up to 14 days, indicating a flawed system. The system is broken.

B2B Transactions

The conventional business culture to accept "a late payment is better than no payment at all” and “hold on to the cash as long as possible” is not going to change over night. We created flexible features that did not force business owners to do business differently, but rather a toolbox to do business any which way. We introduced eQuote, payment requests and pre-authorized debit tools. All these tools combined, results in unprecedented DATA & VISIBILITY into business transactions.

Forward

We told hundreds of our FREE users that Cashflow was launching commercially with a 3 tier usage based pricing model as of June 2022.  In the following months, we were happy to learn that 95% of our FREE users converted to monthly PAID users.  A great sign that we were providing true value to our business customers.  We took this as motivation to further improve and expand our platform features.

Payables V1

We launched our V1 Payables feature that focused on sending payments to suppliers with domestic bank transfers.  We added a Bill Management feature that allowed businesses to upload, of forward by email, invoiced bills to be paid in one central location, scanned and ready to be paid on-time. In November, we signed a partnership with a major international cross border services provider.  Our business customers would soon be able to send payments in over 150 currencies via international bank transfers.
