Automatic reconciliation of your electronic payments – now with payment analytics!
Whether your customers make cashless payments in a retail environment or whether they pay online – the Matchbox reconciliation software automatically reconciles all EFT payments with the corresponding amounts paid into your bank accounts. The payment analytics centre transforms the plethora of payment data into informative diagrams, creating a reliable foundation for more effective decision-making.
What Matchbox can do for you
Matchbox makes your everyday work easier, as it automates your payment reconciliation process and reduces the amount of manual work to a minimum, thereby freeing up lots of capacity in your accounts department.
The smart way that all data are prepared in the payment analytics centre provides you with a precise overview of the individual transactions concerned and of the fees that apply to all payments. Matchbox users therefore benefit by having the essential information they need to optimise cost structures and make more effective strategic decisions at their fingertips!
Why Matchbox?
Automatic reconciliation of all EFT payments
Reconciliation and accounting with minimum effort
First of all, the reconciliation software imports all of the datasets from the POS devices, card processors and banks, reorganises them into a common format, reconciles them, draws up the corresponding accounting records fully automatically and then exports them into your ERP. Smart suggestions will help you to quickly remove any remaining discrepancies and make sure that they too are converted into matches.
A payment analytics centre that is intuitive to operate
More detailed insights for more precise controlling
The payment analytics centre provides a valuable detailed graphical overview that not only shows the composition of all payments, but the associated fee structures as well, thereby providing you with the ideal foundation to ensure effective controlling and help you make more effective strategic decisions.
