Company Background
Both QuickBooks and QuickBooks Payments were developed by Intuit which was founded in 1983 by Scott Cook and Tom Proulx in Mountain View, CA. Their initial success was a product for individual financial management called Quicken. They decided to expand their product to include small businesses. The initial QuickBooks had various shortcomings which were ironed out by 2000, when the Intuit launched a Basic and Pro version of the software. In 2003 the company launched a product which had industry specific versions which was very well received. By 2005, QuickBooks had acquired 74% of the American market.
Intuit has offices in the UK (London and Salisbury), the United States (Arizona, California, Massachusetts, Nevada, Virginia and Washington DC), Canada (Alberta and Ontario), Australia (Sydney and Melbourne), France (Paris), India (Bangalore) and Singapore.
The fact that QuickBooks Payments gives merchants the opportunity to process credit cards through QuickBooks accounting software, makes it a very attractive package. The company also offers an Apple app so businesses can constantly check their sales position.
