Deluxe Corporation creates e-check app for QBO
Deluxe Corp., a check printing company that also provides small-business branding services like website building and logo design, has released a new free app for QuickBooks Online. The app allows users to write e-checks the same way they create paper checks, but online. These e-checks are not the same as Intuit's existing electronic checks functionality, which are actually ACH transfers. With e-checks, check writers don’t need to know anything about the payees’ banking info except their email address. Deluxe e-checks are delivered by email and are bank-agnostic. The Deluxe e-checks app is not available in the QBO app store, but is a third party add-on. For more information, visit

Tungsten Network releases new payment receipt solution in Mexico
Payments solutions provider Tungsten Network has expanded its service offering in Mexico to include processing and delivery of payment receipts. Mexico is the world’s first mandatory e-invoicing market, having instituted a requirement in 2011 for all business-to-business and business-to-government transactions in the country to be handled electronically, in a bid to reduce inefficiencies and combat fraud. All invoices raised in Mexico must be filed digitally in a pre-specified format called a Comprobante Fiscal Digital por Internet (CFDI). Tungsten Network customers in Mexico can now submit payment receipts in the required CFDI format. Tungsten Network validates the document, matching it against the invoices previously issued by the customer, and delivers the result to the recipient. Payment receipt CFDIs are archived compliantly, with the entire process taking place within the Tungsten Network portal.
