Strengthen your back office by simplifying your preaccounting process with Expensify. Our bill payment automation feature offers all the benefits of a traditional bill pay app within the same Expensify app that’s received 4.5 stars on G2.

Read on for more information on why bill pay automation is so important and how we can help.

What is bill pay?

Bill pay is a fast, easy, and convenient way to pay a bill automatically (and typically online). Many banks, service providers, and other companies offer bill pay options through their website or mobile app, including Expensify.

What is a bill payment app?

A bill payment app is a mobile application where you can make payments, automate your payment schedule, change account information, and much more.

Bill payment apps take the struggle out of going to several websites to pay all your bills. Instead, you can just go to one app and set up recurring payments for most services you pay for.

With the Expensify bill payment feature, you can simplify your bill payments in the same interface you use for spend management, travel management, and more.

How to track and pay bills with Expensify

Finding a bill pay solution is as easy as signing up with Expensify. Once you’ve got an account, just follow these simple steps:

  1. Ask your vendors to send bills to your Expensify Bill Pay Address, which can be found in your Expensify account under Settings > Account > Account Details.

  2. Bills sent to your Bill Pay Address will land in your Expensify Inbox for easy access.

  3. Click into your bills and follow the steps to review, approve, and code each one.

  4. Then, choose your payment method, such as credit card, Venmo, PayPal, and more.

  5. You can also set up automatic payments for specified amounts and invoices. For any invoices that meet the criteria you set, Expensify will automatically pay and close out the invoice for you.

Benefits of using a bill management app

Everything is going mobile these days, including financial services that were once a desktop-only process.

But just because you have a mobile app doesn’t mean the automation process will be smooth sailing. For that, you need the right mobile app.

The benefits of using a bill management app such as the Expensify app include:

  • Time saved through bill pay automation settings

  • Increased organization by way of our Inbox so you never miss a payment again

  • Payments through your preferred choice: Venmo, PayPal, and more

  • Improved productivity with SmartScan automatic uploading

  • Easy access for all team members and clients you’d like to include on your account
