QuickBooks Payments + Shuttle

QuickBooks Payments, built by Intuit, is a payment processing service designed to work natively with the QuickBooks accounting ecosystem used by millions of small and mid-sized businesses in the United States. Its core advantage is automatic reconciliation: every transaction processed through QuickBooks Payments flows directly into the merchant’s books without manual data entry. The service supports credit and debit cards, ACH bank transfers, and invoice-based payments, with competitive processing rates and optional same-day deposits. For businesses already running their accounting on QuickBooks, it eliminates the disconnect between payment processing and financial record-keeping.

Shuttle integrates with QuickBooks Payments to bring this accounting-native processing into a multi-PSP orchestration environment. Platforms that serve small business merchants — particularly those in the accounting, professional services, or field services verticals — can offer QuickBooks Payments as a processing option through Shuttle’s Embedded Payments while still maintaining connections to other PSPs for merchants who prefer different processors. Shuttle’s Voice Checkout routes phone-based payments through QuickBooks Payments when configured, which is especially relevant for service businesses that frequently collect payments over the phone. Payment Links generated through Shuttle can process through QuickBooks Payments, giving merchants a way to send payment requests that automatically reconcile in their accounting software.

For platforms, the ability to offer QuickBooks Payments through Shuttle addresses a specific and common merchant request without requiring a dedicated integration. Many small business merchants are drawn to QuickBooks Payments specifically for the accounting sync, but their platform may need to support other processors for merchants who use different accounting tools or need international capabilities. Shuttle solves this by letting the platform offer QuickBooks Payments to merchants who want it and alternative PSPs to those who don’t, all managed through a single integration. The platform avoids building and maintaining a separate Intuit integration while still capturing the segment of merchants for whom QuickBooks compatibility is a deciding factor.
