Save Time On Accounting By Adding GoPayments To Your Small Business

Mobile credit card readers have made it easy for small businesses and sole proprietors to conduct business anywhere and process credit card payments from customers. One recent addition to the scene is GoPayment by Intuit, the company behind QuickBooks. GoPayment is different from similar mobile card readers in that it can sync with your QuickBooks software making billing and accounting quick and easy. Ralph Matlack, director of product management for QuickBooks Payments, outlines the benefits of adding GoPayment to your small business, "With GoPayment, small businesses have the tools of larger businesses at a 'pay for only what you use' price they can afford. This translates into peace of mind, knowing that they can easily get paid while staying focused on the business. They look professional, can quickly send their customers' itemized receipts via email and have QuickBooks on the back end to help with accounting." Having these capabilities allows your business to process payments without having to generate paperwork, which is great for accepting payments in a setting such as a farmers market. GoPayment makes it easy for businesses with many employees to process payments at the same time. Matlack states, "GoPayment can support multiple users. This is a great feature for small businesses that have several employees conducting business away from the office. It's simple. The small business owner enables employees — or contract workers — to process payments on their behalf without providing access to any business information. So, you can have 20 people taking payment for your company at the same time, while you — the small business owner — have access to all the data, which of course can be seamlessly uploaded to QuickBooks." Mobile technology has expanded options for small businesses of all types, and companies such as Intuit have taken these technologies and integrated them with systems that many small business owners already use. By doing so, they have created a great way for business owners to have a central database of transactions without having to take the time to account for all of their payments later.  Business owners can make the most of their time and energy by utilizing such technologies, and can put the focus back onto the customer rather than paperwork.     Alaina Brandenburger is a freelance writer living in Denver.
