"Flow has been a customer of ABS for a very long time and we have found over the years that ABS has always been right on target with filling the needs of their customers and keeping up with the ever changing technology. Credit Card Processing is just one example. Being able to process credit cards directly through ABS has simplified customer management and processes for not only our customers, but our company as well. The automatic matching in Accounts Receivables is a real time saver for the accounting team. This, along with the ability for our customers to pay past due invoices with a credit card, has also vastly improved our cash flow and improved supplier relations with customers."
