Managing vendor payouts is chaotic and time-consuming due to fragmented invoice submission methods, hidden fees, and outdated payment platforms that require manual data entry and tech support.

Current B2B payment platforms have poor UX, lack centralized invoice collection from multiple channels (email, text, DM), and fail to provide transparent fee structures or reliable transfer status updates.
