ApprovalMax Pay (beta) is available to businesses, accountants and bookkeepers using Xero in the UK
ApprovalMax Pay is a new add-on that enables users to manage payments securely in one place. It uses the open banking technology to pay approved Bills directly from ApprovalMax.
With built-in approvals and audit trails, ApprovalMax Pay reduces the risk of fraud and costly mistakes while ensuring full visibility and tight control.
- First, create a Batch Payment for Bills whose due dates are within a close range:
You can review, sort and approve Batch Payments with just a few clicks. Once a request has been submitted for approval, it will run through the predefined approval workflow, and the respective Approvers get notified. - When all approvals have been collected, the Batch Payment is ready for payment by authorised Payers: log in to your banking app with ApprovalMax Pay and confirm the payment.
- The Payment will be created in Xero and automatically reconciled once a bank feed is imported into Xero.
You can find out more about ApprovalMax Pay here - it is currently available in beta to businesses, accountants and bookkeepers in the UK that use Xero. Please get in touch if you’d like to join the beta phase.
