About
Melio is an accounts payable tool built to simplify bill payments, boost workflow efficiency, and optimize cash flow for businesses of all sizes. To get started, try all of Melio's features free for 30 days!
Pay vendors online through bank transfers or credit/debit cards, even if they typically accept checks—Melio manages the manual work for you. Effortlessly integrate with QuickBooks and Xero to ensure your financial records stay current.
With Melio, pay by bank transfer or card to extend cash flow and earn rewards. Adding vendor or bill details is a breeze—input them manually, upload files, or take a photo of invoices. Schedule payments to align with your cash flow, and let Melio handle the rest. International vendor payments are made easy by paying in their local currency for products and services your business needs.
The Melio mobile app, available for iOS and Android, lets you monitor and manage payments anytime, giving you full control over your finances on the go.
