What is Kolleno?
Kolleno is stretching from collections software toward the whole cash cycle.
Kolleno ships a bundled monthly update for finance and accounts-receivable teams. Since the June rebuild of its AI Task Manager, most releases have refined that hub, while the newest update adds automated payment matching, AP portal tracking and early-access cash flow forecasting.
What is Mollie?
Mollie's Payments API now supports embedded saved cards — a real concession to merchants who own their checkout.
Mollie just enabled saving cards during checkout directly via the Payments API, letting merchants build fully embedded 1-click flows without redirecting to Mollie's hosted page. Alongside it: partial credit notes for specific invoice items, a new Methods Component beta for custom low-code checkouts, expanded webhook reference with permission requirements, and integration updates (Prestashop 6.4.3, VirtueMart for Joomla). Several smaller dashboard ergonomics ship in the same window.
Kolleno vs Mollie: editorial side-by-side
Kolleno
6.3FINANCE
Kolleno is stretching from collections software toward the whole cash cycle.
◆ Current state
Kolleno ships a bundled monthly update for finance and accounts-receivable teams. Since the June rebuild of its AI Task Manager, most releases have refined that hub, while the newest update adds automated payment matching, AP portal tracking and early-access cash flow forecasting.
◆ Where it's heading
The product is moving outward from chasing invoices into reconciliation and forecasting, the adjacent jobs a finance team does with the same data. The Task Manager remains the operational center, with each release adding controls, notifications and e-signature forms around it.
◆ Prediction
Cash flow forecasting is in early access, so the next updates will likely broaden it toward general availability and connect it to the payment-matching data shipped alongside it.
Mollie
5.3FINANCE
Mollie's Payments API now supports embedded saved cards — a real concession to merchants who own their checkout.
◆ Current state
Mollie just enabled saving cards during checkout directly via the Payments API, letting merchants build fully embedded 1-click flows without redirecting to Mollie's hosted page. Alongside it: partial credit notes for specific invoice items, a new Methods Component beta for custom low-code checkouts, expanded webhook reference with permission requirements, and integration updates (Prestashop 6.4.3, VirtueMart for Joomla). Several smaller dashboard ergonomics ship in the same window.
◆ Where it's heading
Mollie is repositioning from a hosted-checkout payments processor toward a more developer-platform shape — saved cards in the Payments API, the Methods Component low-code SDK, and the Unmatched credit transfers API all point the same direction. The webhook reference work and Token ID search in logs suggest the team is building for serious integrators who run Mollie alongside other payment rails.
◆ Prediction
Expect more checkout primitives to migrate from hosted-only to API-accessible (likely subscriptions and recurring billing next), and the Methods Component beta to graduate with deeper customization. Continued European e-commerce platform integrations remain on the conveyor belt.
