“Nearly 500,000 businesses trust BILL to move, manage and maximize their money, and that trust depends on removing friction without sacrificing accuracy and security of supplier payments.”

“For too long, supplier portals have been friction points, requiring a person to manually complete what should be an automated step.”

Archana Prasad, SVP of Payments and Financial Services, BILL

“With Visa and Billtrust, BILL’s AI-powered payments technology is closing that gap: the payment gets done, the supplier gets paid faster, and finance teams get their time back.”

Kunal Patel, SVP Payments, Billtrust

“Agentic commerce will only move forward if businesses can trust agents to operate across systems with the same clarity and accountability they expect from people.”

“By connecting buyer-side invoice approval with supplier-side payment acceptance, this pilot shows how authorized agents can complete business transactions, releasing trapped cash faster while adhering to a complex acceptance policy and preserving visibility and control for both sides.”
