Do you still send people to collect cash or cheque from your customers and deposit it into the bank account later? It takes lots of time, efforts and human resources until you finally get the fund in the bank account after you have issued an invoice and it became due!
Or do you still ask your customers to make the transfer of payment to your account? The customer has to send someone to the bank to make the transfer (if the customer is still not on net banking) or has to go online banking, key in your information and amount to complete the online transfer! Then confirming the payment, you checking the bank account to confirm the receipt, and entering the receipt in your accounting system! Don’t it take too much time and efforts also?
