The fintech, provides cloud-based software that simplifies, digitises, and automates back-office financial processes for small and mid-sized businesses (SMB) with customers such as company calling service Dialpad, benefits and human resource manager Gusto and local professional search engine Thumbtack.
With $347.1 million already in the bank according to Crunchbase, the 2006-founded company has gathered investors as big as MasterCard, Silicon Valley Bank (SVB) and BofA.
Talking about how the procure-to-pay landscape is converging, Mercator Advisory Group’s commercial and enterprise payments director Steve Murphy says: “That’s led technology companies such as Bill.com to add virtual cards to automate accounts payable for small businesses through partnerships with Amex and Mastercard.”
Set up by PayCycle’s co-founder René Lacerte, Bill.com now has more than three million members and processes $60 billion in yearly payments, according to its announcement in April 2019 following its most recent funding round of $80 million.
