Qonto x Cleavr: Automated Reconciliation and Collections

Qonto manages your bank flows. Cleavr recovers your unpaid invoices.

Qonto is the reference professional account for European SMEs and startups. It centralises bank flows, incoming payments and wire transfers. But when a payment doesn't arrive, Qonto triggers nothing, and identifying which unpaid Qonto invoice corresponds to which wire transfer requires tedious manual reconciliation.

The Cleavr x Qonto integration automates this reconciliation and triggers Qonto collections the moment an unpaid invoice is detected.

What the Qonto x Cleavr Integration Solves

Manual bank reconciliation is one of the most time-consuming tasks for SME finance teams. Identifying which wire transfer corresponds to which invoice, detecting partial payments, spotting invoices unpaid at the due date: each step consumes time and generates errors.

According to the Intrum 2024 European Payment Report, 86% of European companies experience late payments, with the average B2B payment delay exceeding 55 days. Every undetected day of delay ties up cash unnecessarily.

With Cleavr connected to Qonto, every collection is automatically matched to the right invoice, and every Qonto invoice unpaid at the due date triggers a collections action without human intervention.

What the Integration Lets You Do

  • Synchronise Qonto bank flows with your client invoices in Cleavr
  • Automatically reconcile incoming payments with open invoices
  • Detect in real time invoices unpaid at the due date
  • Trigger multichannel reminders (email, SMS, AI call, WhatsApp) automatically the moment an unpaid invoice is identified
  • Manage partial payments: Cleavr automatically adapts the reminder to the remaining amount due
  • Maintain a receivables status always up to date, with no double entry

Set Up in 3 Steps

  1. Connect your Qonto account to Cleavr by authorising API access
  2. Automatic import of transactions and your outstanding receivables balance
  3. Cleavr acts: reconciliation, reminders, response management, escalation if necessary

Setup takes under a day, with no technical skills required.

Why Qonto Collections Changes Everything for European SMEs

Qonto is used by tens of thousands of European SMEs that don't have a complex ERP or a dedicated finance team. These companies manage their unpaid invoices manually, hours lost every week on reminders, reconciliation and tracking that could be entirely automated.

The Cleavr x Qonto integration gives them access to professional automated collections without heavy infrastructure. Cleavr acts as a dedicated AI collections agent, available 24/7, knowing every client and adapting every reminder to the context.

If a client doesn't respond, Cleavr escalates progressively, through to formal notice and litigation with our partner bailiffs and lawyers.
