Fast. Flexible. Streamlined.

PayPal’s Bill Pay can help businesses save time and operate more efficiently:

Flexibly fund payments

Optimize cash flow by using different funding sources to pay bills on time. Like credit cards, ACH, and PayPal balances. With PayPal balances, there are no delays or multiple transfer steps. Funds can be used as soon as they are received.

Pay vendors how vendors want

Different vendors have different payment preferences. ACH deposits, paper checks, and domestic wire transfers are all possible with Bill Pay. For example, you can fund a payment with a credit card and the vendor can receive it as a paper check. And there’s no need for a vendor to have a PayPal account.

Streamline payment operations

Schedule and send payments, view past activity, and track the status of every outgoing transaction all in one place. Already using PayPal to create and send invoices? Bill Pay will fit seamlessly into your existing workflow.

Backed by PayPal’s robust security infrastructure

PayPal’s Bill Pay is backed by PayPal’s security standards. All transactions are encrypted to help keep sensitive details secure. Vendors will never see a business’s banking or credit card information. And since they don’t need a PayPal account to get paid, there’s no sign-up process.

Businesses can be confident that bills are paid how they want and how their vendors prefer.
