It’s surprising to hear how many businesses today are still manually generating their customer invoices and using outdated billing software. Many of these organizations are realizing the importance of switching to more digital methods.

There are more efficient ways to create invoices and keep track of their latest financial information.

Automation 

With online bill pay, there is never a need to second-guess totals. Businesses can reduce their overhead and save valuable staff time by eliminating the need for manual calculation and entry. You also reduce the chance of human error.

Mobility

Billing customers online gives businesses the ability to accept payments anytime and from anywhere, regardless of your business hours. Also, companies can email an invoice the moment a job or service is complete, as well as access valuable reports in real time, even when traveling. Your customers can use their phones to handle their bills effortlessly.

On-time Payments

Online billing enables businesses to email clients reminder notices before an invoice is due. These “friendly” reminders can improve the chances of being paid on time, accelerating overall funding.

Realtime Reporting

Each time a payable or receivable is entered into a company’s system, a corresponding financial report is automatically updated. This ensures all reports are current and as accurate as possible and always available.

Most companies that do not bill clients online end up printing numerous copies of each invoice for their files. They also send their customers a separate copy via snail mail.
