Eliminating Manual AccountKit Disbursements with Rechargly

Managing AccountKit disbursements manually is an admin headache for accounting firms. Every month, firms receive an AccountKit invoice covering multiple clients, requiring them to determine who should be billed, or whether the cost should go against the work in progress (WIP). The process however can become overwhelming as your client numbers grow, increasing the risk of missed charges, delayed invoicing, and cash flow disruptions. Rechargly eliminates this burden by automating disbursements, allowing firms to oncharge software like AccountKit accurately and effortlessly.

Why You Should Oncharge AccountKit Costs

Paying for AccountKit out of pocket? There’s a better way. Firms are choosing to oncharge AccountKit fees because it’s a direct cost of serving clients. Instead of absorbing the cost, they pass it on, just like any other software or service required to deliver their work.

Clients benefit from AccountKit’s automation and efficiency. Oncharging ensures they cover their fair share, rather than the firm taking the hit. It also keeps billing transparent, so clients see exactly what they’re paying and using on their behalf.

Without a system in place, firms waste time tracking usage, splitting costs, and updating invoices. Automating oncharging with Rechargly makes it effortless, so you’re not stuck covering software costs that should be passed on.

The Challenges of Manual AccountKit Disbursements

Oncharging AccountKit fees to clients should be simple, yet many firms struggle with the inefficiencies of manual processes.

Each month, accountants must review invoices, allocate charges, and ensure everything aligns with their billing model. But without automation, this process is:

  • Time-consuming: Firms spend hours manually tracking and processing charges.
  • Error-prone: Small mistakes in data entry or billing calculations can lead to revenue loss.
  • Inefficient: Reconciling payments manually slows down the entire workflow.

Since AccountKit invoices often cover multiple businesses, tracking which clients should be billed requires extra attention. A missed charge means absorbing costs, while an incorrect invoice can lead to client disputes.
