With this integration, iConnect POS becomes the first cloud-based point-of-sale system to be fully integrated with QuickBooks Online. The announcement was made at Intuit's inaugural QuickBooks Connect Conference in San Jose, CA, where iConnect POS is a featured partner. iConnect POS is now available in Intuit's Apps.com app store or via the Apps tab within Quickbooks Online.

Once subscribed to by Quickbooks Online customers, the seamless integration between iConnect POS and Quickbooks Online provides real-time data synchronization of all payment and accounting information, including every transaction, inventory management, customer data, invoices, purchase orders and account balances.

"With this real-time integration, Quickbooks and iConnect have created a better management experience," said Subodh Gupta, founder and president of iConnect. "By automating the link between the point of sale and Quickbook's advanced accounting software, retail owners and managers can save countless hours of work."

The iConnect POS suite of payments apps, already downloaded by more than 10,000 businesses worldwide, simplifies the demands of running a business by optimizing the use of payments applications for iPad, iPhone and Web. The simple, intuitive application can be customized to handle any payments demand, from the simplest to the most complex, making it the first mPOS app that matches the power and features of traditional POS. With its recent release of an enhanced iConnectPOS app, it also became the first mPOS application to offer personalized themes and multi-language support. New register and inventory features include product attributes and modifier capabilities.

The Intuit integration will also help support iConnect's rapidly growing franchise expansion. "The addition of iConnect POS to the QuickBooks Online Ecosystem is great news for multi-location businesses and franchises that are looking to expand," said Jennifer Pataki, director of ma marketing for Intuit Developer Group.. "By helping them simplify and consolidate payments, marketing, sales - and now accounting automation via their connection to QuickBooks Online — all in one customizable cloud-based application, iConnect provides the tools needed to get many stores up and running quickly."

iConnectPOS provides merchants with consolidated POS services, including integrated merchant services and payments processing, inventory tracking, employee management, and Customer Relationship Management (CRM). Customers can also use iConnect POS to book and manage appointments, send reminders and confirmations, and manage membership and loyalty programs.
