Pay Out overview

Learn more about Payabli's Pay Out features, and find all the guides in one place

Applies to:DevelopersPartnersPaypoints

Pay Out is the accounts payable (AP) side of your payment program — outgoing vendor payments, not the settlement you receive from your processor.

Most merchants handle AP in separate tools: bills in one place, payments sent another way. Pay Out brings it together: merchants manage vendors, track bills, and send payments from a single place. Virtual card payouts earn interchange, so the AP they’re already doing becomes a revenue stream rather than just a cost center. These guides cover vendors, bills, and payout transactions.

Payabli’s Pay Out capabilities include:

Managed payables to make frictionless and secure payments to your vendors.
Billing engine to centralize your pay-out tasks in Payabli to track, manage, and monetize payments to vendors.

These guides help you make the most of Payabli’s Pay Out features.
