What is cash flow management?

Cash flow management is how you track the amount of money going in and out of your business. Proper cash flow management helps maintain a balance between your earnings (revenue from sales) and expenses (debts to suppliers, staff wages, rental fees, etc.).

Poor cash flow management is the primary reason many businesses fail. To grow a successful business, you need an efficient payment and transaction monitoring solution that will ensure you maintain a positive cash flow, and avoid gaps between inflowing and outflowing cash.
