QuickBooks Online or Mallow – What's the verdict?

Both Mallow and QBO provide tools for businesses to handle payments, but they serve different purposes and are built with different users in mind.

QuickBooks Online is an accounting software built for businesses of every style and size. It is a popular choice for accountants, bookkeepers, and CFOs in many industries.

On the other hand, Mallow was designed specifically for marketing agencies and small service-based teams. It brings invoicing and contracts together into one app, helping agencies owners save time and money.

Mallow has significantly lower fees on all payment processing, leading to improved margins for service-based businesses, and integrates with QuickBooks Online to ensure smooth bookkeeping.
