Adfin, the billing engine for Accountants & Bookkeepers and Engager.app, a leader in practice management software, are thrilled to announce a transformative partnership. This groundbreaking integration, unveiled at Accountex North 2024, addresses one of the industry's most pressing issues—inefficient and costly payment collection processes.

Addressing the payment collection challenge

Accountants and bookkeepers have always faced persistent challenges when collecting payments, including late payments, fragmented systems, and high transaction fees–which is often costly and time-consuming. 

Adfin and Engager.app’s integration is a unified solution that streamlines every aspect of the payment workflow. By combining Adfin’s accounts receivable technology with Engager.app’s comprehensive proposal and practice management tools, this partnership will make collecting payments faster, more affordable, and far easier.

Simplifying payment collection

The integration offers a robust suite of features to simplify payment collection:

  • Seamless proposal to payment workflow: Streamline the entire process from proposal to payment collection.
  • Automated payment management: Eliminate manual follow-ups with automated invoicing, set-it-and-forget-it reminders, and collections.
  • Unified platform: Seamlessly integrate Xero and QuickBooks in a single dashboard for easy reconciliation and real-time updates.
  • Enhanced payment options: Accept payments via direct debit, card, and bank transfers, with automatic retries for failed transactions and dynamic fee management.

“We’re thrilled to partner with Engager.app to solve one of the biggest pain points in accounting,” said Tom Pope, CEO at Adfin. “Late payments and cumbersome processes can be incredibly frustrating, and this integration helps us achieve our goal of providing accountants with a streamlined solution that helps them focus on delivering exceptional client service rather than chasing payments.”

Johann Goree, Chief Growth Officer and Co-founder at Engager.app, added, “Our collaboration with Adfin is a giant leap forward for our practice management software. By harnessing Adfin’s powerful billing engine, we’re empowering our users to simplify their payment workflows and reduce operational costs, and this partnership embodies our continued commitment to innovation and disruption in the accounting industry.”
