How do I connect Zoho to Peakflo?

Are you using Zoho accounting software to manage your business? By integrating with Peakflo you can pay and get paid seamlessly.

Plus, the setup is only a one-click process—ok it's closer to five clicks, but who's counting (we'll get into this later, or you can go to the section in this article on How to Connect Zoho to Peakflo)

Data flow diagram

Peakflo will securely import the following data from Zoho automatically: 

  • Accounts
  • Customers
  • Invoices
  • Payments received → you can also import Payments from Peakflo to Zoho and vice versa
  • Credit Notes 

Your Peakflo account syncs with Zoho automatically: every 5 minutes (for accounts, payments, and credit notes) and in real-time (for customers and invoices) before any payment reminder is sent to ensure you're always working with the most up-to-date information.
