Billtrust, a provider of B2B accounts receivable workflow and payment software, has introduced its AI‑driven Buyer Payment Portal and Cash Forecasting capabilities, along with expanded payment controls and international payment options. Together, the new capabilities help AR teams accelerate collections, improve buyer payment experiences, and gain earlier cash flow visibility from one platform.
As interest rates remain volatile and CFOs face continued pressure to improve cash predictability, many AR teams still rely on lagging indicators such as DSO averages and static forecasting models. Concurrently, buyers increasingly expect digital, self‑service payment experiences, which many B2B organizations struggle to meet with legacy portals and fragmented payment tools. Billtrust’s latest innovations address both challenges by directly connecting buyer payment behavior to cash flow intelligence.
Billtrust’s Buyer Payment Portal delivers a branded, self‑service experience where buyers can view invoices, manage balances, enroll in Autopay, and make payments across multiple methods with a single, unified checkout.
Smart payment recommendations guide buyers on what to pay and when. Based on live supplier policies, the portal highlights opportunities for early‑pay discount capture, surcharge avoidance, and optimal payment timing directly within the payment flow.
For suppliers, the portal is fully configurable within Billtrust workspace, enabling AR teams to manage payment methods, branding, and access without submitting support tickets.
Cash Forecast is a new analytics capability. The solution generates a self‑updating 13‑week AR cash forecast by ingesting Billtrust payment activity, invoicing data, and a daily open AR balance file, providing a more complete view of receivables across all payment channels.
An agentic alert layer continuously monitors buyer‑level behavioral signals such as days‑to‑pay drift, Autopay enrollment changes, and payment modality shifts. When material changes occur, finance teams are shown which buyers are driving the variance, along with the projected cash impact broken down by week to enable earlier, more confident liquidity decisions.
