Turn Accounts Payable Into Revenue — Free Service for Our Clients
This is a free service we provide to help you earn money on payments you're already making.
No setup fees. No monthly costs. Just rebates on your accounts payable spend.
The Problem Most Companies Don’t Realize They Have
Accounts Payable is still one of the most manual, expensive, and inefficient parts of most finance departments:
- Cutting and mailing checks
- Chasing approvals
- Re-keying invoices
- Reconciling payments across systems
- Dealing with fraud exposure
- Missing rebates and incentives entirely
Checks, ACH, and wires cost real money — in labor, delays, and risk — but none of that shows up clearly on a P&L.
The Hidden Cost Nobody Talks About
When you pay vendors on Net 30 or Net 45 terms, you are financing their receivables at your own cost of capital. If your line of credit costs 8-9%, that financing is costing you real money every year — but it never shows up as a line item.
Here is the math: On $5 million in annual AP spend paid at day 45 instead of day 15, you are carrying approximately $45,000 in unnecessary financing costs annually. Virtual card payments at day 1 or day 15 eliminate that cost and generate rebates on top.
This is not theory. It is cash flow math that most finance teams have never calculated.

Why This Works So Well
Most vendors already accept cards — they just don’t advertise it.
Most companies are already paying these invoices — just inefficiently.
This simply redirects payments in a smarter way.
Is Virtual Card Payments Worth Exploring?
A few high-level questions help determine whether virtual card payments make sense for your accounts payable process. These don’t require detailed analysis — they simply help identify fit and potential value.
- How are you paying vendors today?
- (Check, ACH, credit card, or a mix)
- Roughly how much do you process in accounts payable each month?
- Are you looking to improve cash flow, payment controls, or earn rebates on AP payments?
