Why Your Finance Team Needs This Combo
Let's be real – chasing down invoice approvals sucks. Clients ghost emails, accountants play phone tag, and that one manager always forgets to click "approve" before vacation. This is why pairing Nomod's payment muscle with ApproveThis' approval automation isn't just nice-to-have; it's your secret weapon against financial chaos.
Nomod handles the money moves across UAE and KSA – online payments, Tap to Pay, QR codes, you name it. ApproveThis handles the human bottleneck. Together through Zapier, they turn "Where's that approval?!" into "It's already done." Think fewer spreadsheet hunts, fewer late payment fees, and way less passive-aggressive Slack follow-ups.
How This Duo Actually Works
ApproveThis isn't just digital paperwork. It's built for real-world business crap:
- Email approvals: Approvers don't need to log into Nomod (or even know how to spell "Nomod")
- Auto-escalation: Overdue invoice? Routes to the CFO after 48hrs automatically
Nomod brings the payment tracking – when a client's invoice is late, when a new big spender signs up, when you need to issue refunds. Zapier stitches them together without needing a dev team.
Real Scenarios Where This Saves Your Sanity
1. Killing Late Payments (Before They Kill Cash Flow)
The Problem: Client's 60 days overdue. Your team's arguing whether to send a reminder or collections. Meanwhile, your cash flow's bleeding.
The Fix: Zapier triggers an ApproveThis workflow the second Nomod flags an overdue invoice. Routes to sales lead (Was the delivery late?), then accounting (Can we waive fees?), then legal if needed. All approvals happen in email – no app logins for external clients.
Who Cares: Construction firms with milestone billing. Retailers dealing with big distributors. Any business where "the check's in the mail" isn't acceptable.
2. Onboarding Big Spenders Without the Risk
The Problem: New client wants $50K credit terms. Your sales team says "Trust them!" Accounting says "Hell no."
The Fix: New Nomod customer? Auto-send an ApproveThis request with their payment history. Sales director approves, then CFO, with calculated fields showing risk exposure. Everyone signs off via mobile before the client even notices.
Who Cares: Wholesalers, SaaS companies with custom contracts, anyone extending high-value credit.
3. Refunds That Don't Require a Committee
The Problem: Customer demands a refund. Frontline staff needs manager OK, but manager's in Dubai for a conference. Cue angry TikTok review.
The Fix: Nomod refund request triggers ApproveThis. If under $500, auto-approve. Over $500? Routes to manager's email with one-click approve/deny. If they're OOO, it jumps to their boss automatically.
Who Cares: E-commerce, hospitality, any customer-facing biz where refund delays mean reputation damage.
Setup That Doesn't Require an IT Guy
1. Connect the Apps: Zapier links ApproveThis + Nomod in 5 minutes. No code, just checkboxes.
2. Pick Your Triggers: "New overdue invoice in Nomod" → "Create approval request in ApproveThis". Done.
3. Add Your Rules: Set thresholds (e.g., auto-approve refunds under $250), assign approvers, enable email fallbacks.
Pro Tip: Use ApproveThis' vacation delegation so approvers don't bottle neck requests when they're on Hajj or vacation.
Why This Beats Spreadsheets and Slack
Your current system? It's probably:
- Email chains where someone accidentally hits "Reply All"
- Shared Excel sheets that nobody updates
- Slack messages that get buried under cat memes
ApproveThis + Nomod gives you:
- Audit trails for every decision (No more "I thought YOU approved it!")
- Real-time dashboards showing what's stuck
- Auto-reminders that nudge approvers without you playing secretary
