AR automation for QuickBooks connects QuickBooks to software that sends invoices, chases payment on a schedule, gives customers a way to pay online, and applies incoming cash to the open invoices it was made against. Centime syncs customers, invoices, credit memos and payments in both directions, so receivables and the QuickBooks ledger stay aligned without exports or duplicate entry.

Automated Collections

Reminders and escalations on your cadence, run off the invoices already in QuickBooks.

Centime sends reminders and escalations against the cadence your team sets, before and after the due date, so every account is followed up consistently rather than whenever someone notices.

Cadence and tone adjust by customer, and only the accounts that genuinely need a person reach one — with no second receivables list to maintain.

Getting Paid, and Getting It Reconciled

A branded no-login portal, plus the Undeposited Funds handling most QuickBooks integrations get wrong.

A customer can pay by ACH, card or check in a few clicks, and card payments qualify for Level 3 processing, which earns the lowest interchange rates.

Centime handles the Undeposited Funds account explicitly — how QuickBooks stages a payment between receipt and deposit — so bank reconciliation stays clean instead of needing a manual fix each month. Deposits, credit memos and refund receipts sync as their own records.

Cash Application

Configurable matching across ACH, card, check and lockbox, on Online and Desktop alike.

Incoming payments are matched to the open invoices they were made against using rules your finance team configures.

Payments that cannot be matched with confidence route to a person as true exceptions, with the payment, candidate invoices, and variance already attached. Applied cash posts back to QuickBooks without re-keying.

Two-Way QuickBooks Sync

Customers, invoices, credit memos, deposits and payments stay current in both systems.

There is no second list of receivables to maintain and no export step, so the aging your collectors work from is the aging your accountant sees.

Supported on both QuickBooks Online and QuickBooks Desktop, which matters for the many mid-market finance teams still running Desktop.

Does Centime integrate with QuickBooks for AR?

Yes. Centime syncs customers, invoices, credit memos, deposits and payments in both directions with QuickBooks, so both systems stay aligned without manual export or duplicate entry.

Does cash application work on QuickBooks?

Yes, on both QuickBooks Online and QuickBooks Desktop. Incoming payments are matched to open invoices using rules your team configures, across ACH, card, check and lockbox, and only unresolved payments are routed to a person.

Will payments reconcile properly in QuickBooks?

Yes. Centime handles the Undeposited Funds account explicitly, which is how QuickBooks stages a payment between receipt and deposit, so bank reconciliation stays clean rather than needing a manual fix each month.

Will my customers actually use the payment portal?

It is branded and needs no login, so paying takes a few clicks. At Centime customer JobGet, 30 to 50 percent of invited customers adopted the portal.

Does this work with QuickBooks Desktop?

Yes. Centime syncs with QuickBooks Desktop as well as QuickBooks Online, which matters for the many mid-market finance teams still running Desktop.

Is our receivables data secure?

Yes. Centime is SOC 2 Type II compliant, an independent audit standard covering how a software provider handles and protects customer data, with bank-grade security.
