When you run a bookkeeping business, the right tools can make everyday tasks easier and client relationships stronger. This is especially true when clients are working with overseas suppliers, contractors, or income streams.
That’s why First Class Accounts partners with OFX. As a trusted platform for global money transfers, OFX gives our franchisees more visibility, more control, and less hassle when it comes to international payments.
Here’s what OFX does, and how it helps our network of bookkeepers work more confidently with clients who deal in multiple currencies.
What is OFX?
OFX is a global financial platform that helps businesses send and receive international payments securely and efficiently.
It offers more than just transfers. With OFX, users can access real-time tracking, issue corporate cards, manage multiple currencies, and reduce manual admin. The platform gives both bookkeepers and their clients a simpler way to manage international finances, all in one place.
How OFX supports First Class Accounts franchisees
Our franchisees support a wide range of small businesses across Australia. Many of those businesses operate internationally, either through imports, exports, or remote teams.
OFX gives franchisees the tools to help clients stay on top of global transactions without delays or uncertainty.
Live payment tracking
See where money is at all times. OFX keeps both you and your client updated, so no one is left guessing about payment status or timelines.
Quick corporate card setup
Franchisees or their clients can issue corporate cards in minutes, making day-to-day spending easier to track and manage.
Multi-currency support
Clients who deal in more than one currency can use OFX to manage exchange rates, send money securely, and avoid unnecessary bank fees.
Less manual admin
OFX automates common financial tasks, which means fewer data entry mistakes and more time for billable work.
Why our bookkeepers find it valuable
OFX fits right into the daily work of a bookkeeping franchise owner. It helps them:
- Save time with built-in automation and less follow-up work
- Support clients with up-to-date information about overseas payments
- Offer clarity on what’s been paid, what’s pending, and what’s required
- Stand out as a trusted partner who can offer more than just local knowledge
A tool built with small business in mind
OFX was created to support growing businesses that need to manage global payments without the complexity of a traditional bank. Their service team understands small business needs and works closely with users to provide guidance and clarity when it’s needed most.
That’s why OFX is a natural fit for the First Class Accounts network. It helps our bookkeepers offer a better service, without adding complexity to their day.
