When you centralize and automate business payments in Bottomline’s cloud-based Payments Hub, you can also proactively reduce errors and identify and stop payments to suspect businesses with Payee Management.
Set up your own workflows and approval processes for both payees and payments. Once in place, you can have confidence that your payments are only going to approved parties, and only after they’ve gone through your pre-configured SOPs.
