SEATTLE–(BUSINESS WIRE)–doxo today announced its inclusion on the Deloitte Technology Fast 500™, a ranking of the 500 fastest-growing technology, media, telecommunications, life sciences, fintech, and energy tech companies in North America, now in its 27th year. The innovative web and mobile bill pay service helps empower consumers to improve their financial health by offering secure, all-in-one bill payment to any biller, with any payment method, on any device.
Many U.S. households struggle to stay on top of bills, a challenge that has only grown more pronounced with the ongoing impact of the pandemic. doxo’s core value has proven to be especially timely — the all-in-one bill management app simplifies the task of staying on top of bills and helps improve financial health. doxo’s disruptive, customer-centered bill pay experience is independent of any individual bank or biller, giving users the freedom to pay their bills with multiple payment accounts; manage all due dates in a single view; schedule automatic payments; and check payment status with real-time tracking on a mobile phone or device. doxoPLUS adds 5 essential financial protections including $1M in protection from potential losses to identity theft or online financial fraud.
As people shifted more bill payments online and to mobile over the past year, the company experienced rapid organic growth, vastly expanding both its customer-base and the number of billers on the doxo network. To date, over six million doxo users across 97% of U.S. zip codes have paid bills through the payment network, across more than 45 different service categories. This consumer demand and accelerated growth drove doxo’s placement on the list, at #352 out of 500 of North America’s highest growth companies. With more than 100,000 payable billers, doxo’s proprietary, crowd sourced provider directory is uniquely representative of how all consumers pay their bills no matter where they live. doxo grew its user base by more than 70 percent in the past year and is expanding its team to further accelerate growth and change the bill pay landscape to focus on the customer.

These efforts underscore our commitment to simplifying payments and saving money for consumers and billers nationwide.”
“Each year the Technology Fast 500 shines a light on leading innovators in technology and this year is no exception,” said Paul Silverglate, vice chair, Deloitte LLP and U.S. technology sector leader. “In the face of innumerable challenges resulting from the pandemic, the best and brightest were able to pivot, reinvent and transform and grow. We celebrate the winning organizations and especially the talented employees driving their success.”
“The pandemic has underscored the urgent need for tech solutions in a variety of areas across health care, fintech, energy tech, entertainment, to name a few, so reliance on innovators like the winners of the Technology Fast 500 is more important than ever,” said Christie Simons, partner, Deloitte & Touche LLP and industry leader for technology, media and telecommunications within Deloitte’s audit & assurance practice. “These companies are not only at the cutting edge, transforming the way we do business, but most importantly, recognize the strategic importance of ongoing innovation, especially in the ever-changing world of technology.”
