Billtrust, a B2B accounts receivable (AR) automation and digital payments Fintech, surpassed $100 billion in payments volume in 2022, a 35% year-over-year increase and a first for the company.
In addition, with CFOs and finance leaders seeking to bolster their financial resilience amid an economic downturn, Billtrust‘s client base “grew to exceed 2,400 customers globally, as Billtrust enabled them to present over 423 million bills to 13 million buyers.”

“More companies are turning to Billtrust to fortify their businesses through an accounts receivable digital transformation. Not only does creating a new generation of B2B digital payers support CFOs and other financial professionals by allowing them to maximize and forecast cash flow, it reduces dependence on paper checks and the U.S. mail, helping to future-proof businesses as uncertain times continue. More companies are turning to Billtrust to fortify their businesses through an AR digital transformation.”
