Apron serves as an essential ally for every small business by streamlining the process of gathering and settling invoices quickly. This allows you to focus on advancing your business rather than getting bogged down by administrative tasks. With payments and approvals integrated seamlessly, the flow of funds remains uninterrupted. Just a few clicks, and you've selected the vendors to pay, with transactions being executed directly from your bank account. You can establish roles and workflows that enhance communication and facilitate the movement of funds. Payments are instantly reconciled in your accounting software, leaving you with one less task to worry about. To get started, simply sign up using Xero or QuickBooks, complete a brief three-minute security verification, and make your first transaction. Since every app in your ecosystem can be a potential point of security failure, Apron consolidates payment handling into a single platform. By reducing the number of apps you need, we simplify your financial processes. Clients must authorize payments directly through their banking systems to ensure security, and Apron is compatible with all UK banks without any limitations. For those banks that do not support open banking, customers can still easily make payments via traditional bank transfers, ensuring flexibility in managing finances. Ultimately, Apron not only streamlines payments but also safeguards your business's financial health.
