Accounts Payable Management

End-to-end accounts payable that pays the right vendor, on time, every time.

Overview

What we deliver

We manage the full invoice-to-pay cycle so vendors are paid accurately, approvals are tracked, and your cash position stays under control.

We run accounts payable as a controlled process, not a scramble. From invoice capture and coding through approval routing, payment runs, and vendor statement reconciliation, we handle each step with documented controls. Our team uses OCR and rule-based coding to reduce manual entry, then routes invoices through your approval matrix before scheduling payments. We monitor due dates, capture early payment discounts where they make sense, and keep duplicate or fraudulent invoices out of the queue. Payments are reconciled back into your general ledger under US GAAP, IFRS, or UK FRS, and 1099 or CIS tracking is maintained where applicable. You get a clear view of liabilities, upcoming cash needs, and vendor relationships, plus the audit trail required for IRS, HMRC, CRA, or ATO reviews. We adapt to your existing AP tool or help you select one.

Client stories

What clients say

"

Holiday season was about to break us. We needed 22 agents in six weeks and our internal hiring pipeline could not move that fast. They staffed it, trained on our tone guide, and ran nesting alongside our senior reps. CSAT actually went up by three points during peak. First Q4 in four years my support lead took her vacation.

Two weeks before our seed round we still did not have a defensible model. Their fractional CFO rebuilt our three-statement forecast, pressure-tested the assumptions, and walked me through every line before the partner meeting. We closed 1.4M on the terms we wanted. The investor specifically called out how clean the financials looked compared to the last five decks she had seen.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Quick answers to the questions we hear most.

Do you actually release payments from our bank account?
We prepare and schedule payment runs in your AP platform. Final release stays with your authorized signatories unless you specifically delegate that step.
How do you prevent duplicate or fraudulent invoices?
We use system controls for duplicate detection, verify changes to vendor bank details out of band, and apply three-way matching against POs and receipts where available.
Can you handle 1099 and CIS reporting?
Yes. We track reportable vendors throughout the year and prepare data for 1099 filings with the IRS or CIS submissions with HMRC.
What if we do not have an AP platform yet?
We can recommend and implement a fit-for-size tool, or run AP directly inside your accounting system if volumes are low.
How do you handle international vendors?
We support multi-currency invoices, collect appropriate tax forms, and coordinate cross-border payments through your banking partner or platform.
