Giving Thanks to Increased Efficiency with Pineapple’s QuickBooks App

With the Thanksgiving holiday approaching, it’s a good time to think about thankfulness. At work, there are many moments to be appreciated. Perhaps it’s sound of your coworker brewing a fresh batch of coffee, the unspoken gratitude of opening the fridge without the unfriendly smell of forgotten leftovers, or the eclipse-like moment when the thermostat is set to a temperature that everyone is happy with. While those small office victories are important, it’s the big changes to workflow efficiency and productivity that call for true gratitude. Less effort spent grueling over repetitive data entry, more time spent for celebration.

When we discussed our QuickBooks Integrated Application with The Green Sheet, a payments-focused trade publication and online resource, the topic of increased efficiency kept arising. Merchants want to work faster, easier, and smarter. Our QuickBooks integration makes all that possible. Check out some highlights from The Green Sheet’s Product Story

Pineapple Payments enhanced its QuickBooks Integrated Application, an accounting solution designed to improve efficiencies by reducing duplicate data entry. The proprietary solution supports Windows desktop versions of QuickBooks Premier, Pro, and Enterprise; a QuickBooks Online version is on the company’s near-term product roadmap.

Jon Halpern, president at Pineapple Payments, pointed out that QuickBooks is the lifeline of merchant operations in numerous industries and business sectors; however, payment systems that run parallel to QuickBooks require repetitious data entry, which can be time-consuming and labor-intensive. “Our QuickBooks Integrated App solves that problem,” he said. “Merchants can effortlessly initiate transactions from a QuickBooks file or sync outside payments automatically. We’ve made it faster and easier for merchants to bring QuickBooks into the omnichannel payments experience.”

Halpern further noted that the QuickBooks Integrated Application embodies the company’s approach to creating seamless, effortless commerce through a unified technology stack. Like the company’s expanded technology suite, the QuickBooks integrated application is simple to use and easy to integrate with proprietary processing systems. As a true omnichannel solution, it fits a variety of industries and fixed and mobile business environments, he stated.

The QuickBooks Integrated Application is a key component of the Pineapple Payments omnichannel platform, which is designed to make commerce easy and accessible. The PCI-compliant app supports USB card readers and multiple users. When paired with the company’s electronic invoicing solution, the QuickBooks app enables merchants to improve efficiencies and accelerate remittance times by replacing paper-based processes with electronic invoice presentment. 

In addition to continuously updating and enhancing its technology suite, the company is expanding its partner channels by working with ISVs, ISOs, agents and referral partners. “In a seemingly highly commoditized industry, we’re working to differentiate ourselves,” Halpern added. “We started off in payment processing and now also operate a proprietary platform. We’ve progressed a lot over the last few years and have grown both our team and product capabilities tremendously.”
