Building a Better Payment Experience in Construction: Foundation Software + Basys

Powering Payments Through Partnership 

At Basys, we don’t believe in one-size-fits-all payment solutions. Instead, we partner closely with software providers to create tailored, seamless integrations that work within their platforms—enhancing both their product offering and their customers’ experience. Our recent collaboration with Foundation Software, a leading construction accounting solution, is a perfect example of how the right partnership can transform an industry.

The Challenge: Construction Businesses Needed a Better Way to Accept Payments 

Before integrating with Basys, Foundation Software’s customers had no streamlined way to accept and reconcile payments. Manual processes meant wasted time, inefficiencies, and frustration for contractors who needed a seamless way to get paid. Foundation had explored other payment providers, but none could truly integrate into their ERP system in a way that made sense for their users. 

The Solution: A Deeply Integrated Payment Experience 

Basys took a hands-on approach, working directly with Foundation’s technical and leadership teams to design a custom payment integration that eliminated manual entry and fully automated invoicing and reconciliation. Through close collaboration, we: 

• Developed a seamless integration that allows contractors to accept payments online with ease. 

• Eliminated manual processes, saving Foundation customers an estimated 540 labor hours. 

• Enhanced the platform with over 30 product improvements based on real user feedback. 

• Reduced onboarding time by 44%, giving users faster access to their funds and improving cash flow. 

• Provided ongoing support, ensuring the payment experience continues to evolve and improve. 

The Impact: A Smarter, More Efficient Way to Get Paid 

With 91% of Foundation’s integrated payment clients onboarded and new businesses adopting the solution each week, the results speak for themselves. Contractors now have a frictionless way to accept payments, improve cash flow and reduce administrative burdens—while Foundation strengthens its value proposition with a fully integrated payments solution. 

Lessons from the Partnership: What Other Businesses Can Learn 

Foundation Software’s journey with Basys highlights the importance of choosing a payment partner that prioritizes seamless integration and ongoing collaboration. Key takeaways for other software providers include: 

• Prioritize User Experience: A payment solution should enhance—not complicate—your platform’s workflow. 

• Look for a True Partner: Choose a provider willing to invest in understanding your technology and business model. 
• Continuous Improvement Matters: The best integrations evolve with user feedback, ensuring long-term success.
