While I usually use QBO for my A/R and A/P, there are times when it is either too slow, too expensive, or doesn't give me the workflow I need. When that happens, I turn to Forwardly.com for instant payments.

Forwardly's team really gives the impression that they care about their product and the customer experience, and they've proven that to us time and again. Their product, as it is today, is probably a 4 or 4.5 star product, and is a huge improvement from when we started with them (just 10 months ago). Their customer service, however, is easily 10 or 15 stars, and we love them for it.

Frequently asked questions

What is accounts payable automation?

Accounts payable (AP) automation is the use of software to digitize and streamline the entire bill payment process; from invoice capture and approval workflows to payment execution and reconciliation. Instead of manual data entry, paper invoices, and back-and-forth emails, AP automation uses tools like AI-powered OCR, real-time smart approvals, and integrated payment systems to handle everything faster and with fewer errors. For businesses, this means quicker invoice processing, improved cash flow visibility, reduced fraud risk, and stronger vendor relationships through on-time payments. Modern AP automation platforms also support multiple payment methods (ACH, instant payments, cards) and sync seamlessly with accounting and ERP systems, making financial operations more efficient and scalable. In short: AP automation replaces manual, time-consuming tasks with a faster, smarter, and more reliable way to manage business payments.
