Managing Amazon Business invoices is an essential part of your operations. Sending payments manually can be tedious, taking precious time away from other important tasks of running your business. From juggling multiple payment methods to tracking due dates and reconciling accounts, the process can be prone to errors and inefficiencies.

But there’s good news. If you’re a Pay by Invoice customer, you can now effortlessly pay your Amazon Business invoices with the Melio digital payment platform and:

Import your Amazon Business invoices to process payments in just a few clicks, however you choose, including by card*.
Streamline your workflow with batch, recurring, and partial payments.
Sync with select accounting software for easy reconciliation.

With the right approaches in place, you can improve operational efficiencies, simplify workflows, and unlock additional financial benefits for your organization.

Here are six benefits that using Melio can bring to your own organization in streamlining the payment of Amazon Business invoices:

1. Leverage flexible payment options

Pay in the way that works for you — via ACH or card* — by importing your Amazon Business invoices to Melio. You can now use a card to pay your Amazon Business invoices, giving your business more flexibility and control over your cash flow.

2. Hold onto cash longer to extend float

If the billing cycles of your company and your vendors don’t align, your cash flow can be strained. Remove the uncertainty of waiting for your vendor to cash a check for it to hit your account. By sending the payment through Melio, you get more visibility into and control of when funds are debited and cleared from your account. Schedule payments in advance to help ensure your suppliers are paid on time, while giving your business the flexibility to hold onto cash longer. This boost to your cash flow allows your business to handle unexpected expenses, or reinvest funding to other areas of your business.

3. Set it and forget it through automated payments

Streamline your invoicing process by setting up automated approval workflows tailored to your team’s needs. You can more effectively maintain payment control while delegating repetitive tasks with ease by simply setting rules based on payment amounts or schedules. Business owners and admins can quickly create or adjust workflows as priorities evolve, ensuring smooth operations. By eliminating bottlenecks, you can avoid late fees, protect valuable business relationships, and save team time to focus on what matters most: business growth.

4. Make all business payments from one place

Managing multiple payments across different systems can be overwhelming. With a unified payment platform like Melio, you don’t need to jump between different systems. You can consolidate all your invoices (including all your Amazon Business invoices) into a single dashboard, making it easy to track, manage, and ensure on-time payments. Plus, with everything in one place, you can categorize expenses, uncover cost saving opportunities, and reinvest those savings into growing your business.

5. Batch or combine payments

Melio lets you batch multiple bills or Amazon Business invoices into one workflow to reduce the time spent on back office tasks. You can also combine all your invoices or bills to the same vendor to reduce transaction fees, saving your business money and improving efficiency.

6. Simplify reconciliation with accounting software

Through Melio’s two-way accounting software sync with QuickBooks or Xero, your payment details will be automatically updated in both the Melio platform as well as your accounting software.** With this premium feature**, you can lighten your workload, reduce errors, and avoid duplicate data entry.
