Making Payments Easier for Every Filipino SME

If you manage several clients, you know how payment delays can add up.

One client forgets, another sends proof late, and before you know it, month-end reconciliation turns into a fiasco.

The real problem isn’t just clients not paying. It’s the process. Manual bank transfers, mismatched receipts, and constant follow-ups make tracking collections much harder, especially if you manage many accounts.

That’s why we decided to make a change.

Starting this week, payments through PayMongo are now available inside Juan Accounting.

Now, firms can help clients get paid faster and record payments automatically. No more chasing payments, using spreadsheets, or waiting around.

Five ways accounting firms use online payments in Juan Accounting to improve client collections.

Why This Matters

More than 60% of Filipino consumers now prefer digital payments like GCash, Maya, or cards. Still, many small businesses rely on manual bank transfers, which slows down cash flow, delays collections, and makes bookkeeping more stressful.

Smarter Ways to Manage Client Payments

Here’s how firm owners can use Online Payments to make collections smarter and smoother:

1. Automate where your clients collect.

Keep their invoicing, payments, and reports in one system so transactions automatically sync.

2. Track every peso with accuracy.

Gateway fees are logged automatically, so you no longer need to do manual calculations at the end of the month.

3. Offer more payment options.

Help clients get paid faster with gateways like PayMongo, Maya, Stripe, Xendit, or HitPay.

4. Be transparent with fees.

You can choose to absorb processing fees or pass them on to clients, either as a percentage, a flat rate, or both.

5. Simplify reconciliation.

Juan automatically matches payments to invoices, so firms can spend less time on admin and more on strategy.

How It Works for Firm Owners

When you or your client sends an invoice in Juan Accounting with Online Payment enabled, customers can pay instantly via your connected payment gateway.

Once paid, Juan automatically:

✅ Sends a receipt to both you and your client
✅ Records the payment under the right account
✅ Updates your books in real-time
You can also:

  • Create multiple payment profiles for different clients.
  • Track gateway fees automatically.
  • Connect business accounts (required for API access).
  • Enable partial payments if clients prefer installments.

All payments go straight to your client’s business account. The process is secure, clear, and easy.

Why Firms Love It

This update isn’t only for business owners. It’s made to help you, whether you’re a firm owner, accountant, or bookkeeper managing records.

No more waiting for screenshots of payments or manually checking who’s paid. Every transaction is instantly reflected, receipts are automated, and records stay clean.
