A SECURE WAY TO PAY

“Our clients don’t feel comfortable giving us their payment info over the phone.”

Previously, customers who wanted to pay by credit card had to disclose their payment information over the phone. This raised security concerns for both clients and the company.

With Truss, customers can conveniently enter their payment information through a secure online portal when paying invoices. By eliminating the need for sensitive data exchange over the phone, Daylight Concepts ensures customer security and reduces liability for client payment information.

• Secure self-checkout
• Bank-grade security

AVOID CARD & MERCHANT FEES

“Most of our clients prefer to pay via credit card.”

With a background in finance and retail, René knows all too well the high merchant fees associated with credit card payments. Previously, Daylight Concepts allowed clients to pay via card using Quickbooks Payments, resulting in significant percentage-based fees that added to the company's cost of goods sold.

With Truss, Daylight Concepts eliminated the fees associated with accepting card payments. Now, their clients can pay for free via ACH bank transfer or checkout via card. If the client chooses to pay via credit card, they carry the additional card fee. “Our clients like the convenience of paying via card and are okay with paying a little extra.”

• Accept card payments for free
• Transparent fee structure

GET PAID ON THE SPOT

“With checks, we essentially give customers 15 days of credit.”

As for many businesses in the construction industry, checks are still a reality, causing many headaches for René and his colleagues in the field. Checks have to be collected by the installers at the customer’s house, then physically brought into the office. It can take over two weeks for René to receive and deposit a check, unless it gets lost in the mail, further delaying the process.

René appreciates the simplicity and speed of collecting payments with Truss. With seamless integration with Quickbooks, Truss automatically sends payment requests for outstanding invoices and reconciles once payments are made. René only needs to log in once a week to review invoices statuses and account balances, saving his hours on tedious admin work: “Our monthly reconciliation of Truss accounts takes me less than 2 minutes”.

• Instant access to funds
• 2min reconciliation
