cifraHQ integrates with Stripe and turns every invoice into a point of collection: from sent to paid in a single click

PANAMA CITY, Panama - March 5, 2026 - P4 Software, a Grupo Barrdega company with more than 30 years of experience delivering business solutions across the Americas, today announces the official integration of cifraHQ, its cloud ERP platform, with Stripe, the payments infrastructure platform processing transactions for millions of businesses worldwide.

Starting today, every invoice issued from cifraHQ can carry a payment button. The customer clicks it, pays by card or ACH transfer on a secure Stripe-hosted page, and in that same instant cifraHQ marks the invoice as paid, zeroes the balance, posts the journal entry to the mapped account and books the Stripe processing fee separately as a bank charge. The distance between "invoice sent" and "payment received" collapses to a single click.

Collect faster, account for it without touching anything

For most companies, getting paid is still a multi-day process: the customer looks up bank details, initiates the transfer, emails a receipt and someone in accounting matches it against the invoice by hand. The cifraHQ + Stripe integration removes every one of those steps:

• A payment button on every invoice: customers pay by credit or debit card, ACH or a shareable link, on a secure Stripe payment page.
• Automatic reconciliation: the payment is recorded against the right invoice, the balance drops to zero and the journal entry posts itself to the mapped account.
• Fees under control: the Stripe processing charge is booked separately, automatically, as a bank fee.
• True multi-currency: invoice in USD, CAD, MXN or any currency enabled in the Stripe account; customers pay in the currency on the invoice.
• PCI DSS Level 1 security: cifraHQ never stores card data; all sensitive information is handled by Stripe under the industry's highest payment security certification.
• Live in under a minute: paste the Stripe API key into cifraHQ settings, map the destination GL account and start collecting.

"The hidden cost of every invoice is the time it spends uncollected. Every manual step between sending and payment is one more day of receivables. With Stripe we reduced that distance to one click, and what makes us proudest is what happens after the click: the accounting does itself."

Glenn Tosco, founder and CTO of P4 Software and Grupo Barrdega

Cash flow for companies operating across markets

The integration builds on cifraHQ's multi-language invoicing: a customer in Calgary receives their invoice in English and a customer in Panama City receives theirs in Spanish, both with the same payment button and the same secure flow. For mid-market companies and business groups with customers in several countries, that means one platform to invoice, collect and consolidate.

The functionality is available today for all cifraHQ customers with an active Stripe account, with no middleware and no third-party connectors. See the details at cifrahq.com/stripe-payments.
