I have been with Kashflow about 11 years and initially the system worked, it was sold to me at a networking event but over the years it hasn't kept pace with other vendors, the only thing I like is the dashboard has stayed the same, Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
IRIS Pay has some serious operational flaws that create unnecessary risk for any business relying on it.
Invoice branding is broken
Even after updating our account to a Limited Company and changing all settings in the dashboard, invoices are still being issued in the original account holder’s name. This isn’t cosmetic—it’s a compliance and credibility issue. Clients see the wrong entity, which undermines trust and creates avoidable confusion.
Direct Debit logic is fundamentally flawed
If you cancel or disable an invoice, you would reasonably expect any associated Direct Debit to stop. It doesn’t.
IRIS Pay continues to collect unless you manually cancel the collection in a separate system.
That means:
You cancel a service
The client still gets charged
You then have to deal with the fallout
Worse, you can’t cancel collections within 3 days of the due date, so even if you catch it late, you’re stuck.
This isn’t a minor UX issue—it’s a structural problem. The system separates invoicing from payment execution without enforcing logical safeguards. The burden is entirely on the user to prevent incorrect billing.
The result?
Unnecessary admin, reputational damage, and frustrated customers asking why they’ve been charged for cancelled services.
For a payments platform, that’s not acceptable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
