Gusto is the latest in a growing list of financial institutions, SaaS providers, and e-commerce platforms to choose Melio’s embedded accounts payable and receivable solution to offer their customers seamless pay-in and pay-out solutions. Melio’s comprehensive financial management platform provides control, automation, and flexibility, making it the ideal solution for institutions seeking a one-stop shop for key financial services that help their business customers operate and grow.
Today’s small and mid-sized business owners have two main expenses: payroll and vendor payments. For more than a decade, Gusto has enabled businesses to quickly and compliantly hire, pay, onboard, and manage their teams. Now, Gusto is launching Bill Pay to help customers easily manage and pay all vendor payments and business expenses, directly within its platform.
Using Melio’s embedded accounts payable technology, Bill Pay will enable Gusto customers to keep all of their payments in one place, while maintaining control and visibility over their cash flow.

Melio’s technology provides more flexibility for SMBs since they can pay suppliers or vendors with an ACH transfer or credit card, even if the vendor does not accept a credit card payment. Vendors can choose how they want to receive the payment, whether it’s through check or bank transfer. Additionally, bills can be uploaded to the platform by taking a picture, automatic extraction from a user’s email, or syncing with leading accounting software, eliminating the need for manual entry.
Melio also provides Gusto users with an integrated accounts receivable solution, Gusto Invoicing, which enables businesses to send invoices to their buyers and get paid quickly, helping to manage cash flow.
B2B payments are the bedrock for buyer-supplier relationships, but many SMBs still use disparate or manual accounts payable and receivable processes that create inefficiencies. Melio’s solution simplifies the entire payment and collection process, strengthens relationships with vendors and customers, and gives businesses more cash flow control and visibility into expenses.
