It’s been a long time coming but we are delighted to announce that finally, PhorestPay is officially live in Canada. We have also bundled in our new Accounting Integration with QuickBooks and Xero so processing payments and end-of-day reconciling is even easier.

Here’s a rundown of the new features available:
