I thought I’d begin my Intuit Appcenter Series with the newest of my favorite apps, ZenCash.
The title of my article is a tagline directly from their web page, and the answer – at least for ZenCash users – is most likely that it’s worth a lot more than what they’ll have to pay to have this QuickBooks/QuickBooks Online add-on help manage these tasks. It’s starts at less than $2 per action.
I must say this about ZenCash: In the 15 years that I’ve been using QuickBooks, I’ve never seen an add-on that does what this one does. The goal of this app is to make getting paid as stress-free as possible, and I think they do a great job.
When you first sign up, you’ll need to sync your QuickBooks with ZenCash – don’t worry, it works with both desktop and the online versions of QuickBooks – and it only takes just a few minutes to sync and pull in all of your open invoices.
At this point, it is recommended to set up your “Action Timeline” – this automates how ZenCash will work for you. There are actions you can setup for each invoice as it syncs with ZenCash, such as mail out a customized thank you card (and add Amazon or iTunes gift cards with it) or mail a hard copy of the invoice – a great option so that you or your clients don’t have to remember to print and mail your recurring invoices that are set up in QuickBooks Online (QBO).
