Two Tools Walk Into a Bar...

Picture this: Fintoc's constantly watching your company's bank accounts like a hawk with a spreadsheet obsession. ApproveThis is that no-nonsense project manager who hates bottlenecks more than your CFO hates surprise fees. Together? They're the financial oversight dream team you didn't know you needed.

For companies between 50-5,000 employees juggling multiple approval processes (especially across borders), this integration isn't just convenient - it's damage control. We're talking real-time transaction alerts from Fintoc automatically triggering approval workflows in ApproveThis. No more "Oh crap, who authorized that?" moments at 3 AM.

What Makes This Tag Team So Effective?

Fintoc's Party Trick

Fintoc's API does one thing extremely well: it monitors LATAM bank accounts like your grandma watches her novela plot twists. New transaction? It spots it instantly. But here's the kicker - knowing about transactions isn't the same as controlling them.

ApproveThis' Value Add

Enter ApproveThis. When Fintoc detects movement, ApproveThis slaps an approval process on it faster than you can say "compliance audit." Key perks:

  • Auto-create approval requests for transactions over $X
  • Route approvals based on department/vendor/currency
  • Let external partners approve without Fintoc access

The magic sauce? Approvers only need ApproveThis access - no extra Fintoc licenses required. Huge win when dealing with clients or contractors who shouldn't see your full financials.

Real Companies, Real Use Cases

Retail Chains: The Overstock Prevention System

Imagine a Mexico-based home goods retailer with 200 stores. Their procurement team uses Fintoc to monitor inventory payments. With this integration:

  • Any purchase over $5k auto-triggers an ApproveThis workflow
  • Regional managers get emailed approval requests
  • Approvals sync back to Fintoc with notes

Result: 23% fewer overstock orders last quarter. Not bad for a setup that takes 15 minutes in Zapier.

Logistics Firms: Fuel Surcharge Savior

A Colombian trucking company routes all fuel payments through Fintoc. Now:

- Unusual fuel purchases trigger immediate approvals
- Dispatchers approve/reject via email during routes
- CFO gets auto-reports on threshold breaches

They caught 3 fraudulent fuel cards in the first month. That's ROI even your accountant would high-five.

SaaS Startups: Subscription Sanity

Chilean HR tech startup had recurring payment chaos. Now:

- Fintoc detects new subscriptions
- ApproveThis pings department heads
- Auto-approved if under budget
- All records centralized

Their finance team reclaimed 11 hours/week. That's time better spent on, you know, actual strategy.

Setting It Up Without Losing Your Mind

Here's the beauty part - no devs required:

  1. Connect Fintoc to Zapier (auth takes 2 minutes)
  2. Choose "New Movement" as trigger
  3. Add ApproveThis "Create Request" action
  4. Map Fintoc data to approval fields
  5. Set thresholds/routing rules in ApproveThis

Pro tip: Use ApproveThis' calculated fields to auto-flag transactions that exceed department budgets. It's like having a tiny robot auditor.

Who Benefits? (Spoiler: Everyone)

Finance Teams

No more playing detective. Get automatic paper trails for every significant transaction. Bonus: Escalation rules mean you only see exceptions, not every $5 coffee run.

Procurement Departments

Set vendor-specific approval chains. Contractors get approved by legal, software subs go to IT, etc. All while keeping actual bank access locked down.

Operations Managers

Real-time visibility without micromanaging. Set thresholds so routine purchases auto-approve, but get alerted for anomalies. It's delegation without the anxiety.

But Wait - There's More (Because Of Course There Is)

ApproveThis brings some sneaky-useful extras to the table:

Vacation Delegation: Approver OOO? Requests auto-reroute. No more "Sorry, was on beach" excuses.

Multi-Layer Approvals: Need CFO + Legal sign-off on international wires? Set sequential approvals with deadlines.

Mobile-Friendly: Approve from your phone without downloading yet another app. Even your technophobe board members can manage it.

The Nutshell Version

Fintoc tells you when money moves. ApproveThis decides if that's cool. Together, they:

- Cut approval delays from days to hours
- Eliminate "I didn't see the email" excuses
- Give auditors warm fuzzy feelings
- Keep external partners in the loop without full access

And the best part? It works while you sleep. Literally. Because bank transactions don't care about your time zone.

Ready to Stop Playing Payment Whack-A-Mole?

Look - if you're manually approving transactions in 2024, you're not being careful. You're being stubborn. ApproveThis + Fintoc via Zapier is like insurance against financial oopsies. The kind that doesn't make you sit through a sales pitch.

Set up a demo and we'll show you how to:

1. Connect Fintoc in under 10 minutes
2. Build your first auto-approval workflow
3. Teach your team to actually use it (shocking concept)

Or keep chasing PDF approvals in Slack. Your call.
