Stampli Adds Friction. Centime Works Seamlessly Inside Your ERP.

Make the switch to the only AP and AR solution that goes beyond basic bill payment and turns your vendor payments into a profit center.

Stampli Users are Switching to Centime. Here’s Why.

Stampli operates outside your ERP, relying on third-party connectors that introduce sync delays and IT headaches.

Centime is embedded directly into NetSuite and Sage Intacct for seamless, real-time data flow — no duplication, no lag, no middleware required.
BILL promotes itself as a full cash solution, but its focus is AP—with limited AR capabilities and no true cash management tools. Centime gives you better cash visibility across all your finance operations.

Built for Forward Thinking Strategic Finance Teams

Stampli solves a narrow slice of the AP process — but when your business needs more than invoice approvals, it starts to fall short. Without native ERP integration, multi-line invoice support, or embedded payments, workflows get fragmented fast. There’s no built-in forecasting, no AR, and no way to scale your financial operations from a single platform.

Centime changes that. We offer true ERP integration, end-to-end payment automation, and the flexibility to manage AP, AR, and cash flow in one place — all backed by fast implementation and real human support.

FAQs

Is Centime the right fit for my business?

Centime is designed for mid-market businesses that need advanced AP & AR automation, real-time ERP integration, and full cash flow visibility. If you use NetSuite, Sage Intacct, or QuickBooks with $1M+ in revenue, Centime is a great fit.

For very small businesses (<$1M revenue) with simple AP/AR needs, BILL or QuickBooks alone may be enough—but if you're scaling and need smarter automation, better cash management, and seamless ERP integration, Centime is the better choice.

How does Centime compare to BILL for AP automation?

BILL profits off your AP by holding payments for days to earn interest—Centime lets you keep your cash longer and even earn up to 3.0% APY++.

Centime also offers same-day ACH, real-time ERP sync, and AI-powered fraud detection, while BILL relies on delayed syncs and manual approvals. If you want faster payments and better cash control, Centime is the clear choice.

What makes Centime’s NetSuite and Sage Intacct integration better than BILL’s?

Unlike BILL, which relies on basic connector integrations that cause sync delays and manual workarounds, Centime is fully embedded in NetSuite and Sage Intacct.

This means real-time data sync, no duplicate entries, and no reconciliation headaches, ensuring a seamless, more reliable experience.

What does it mean that Centime pays you to Automate AP?

Traditional AP processes focus on managing vendor payments efficiently, but they often overlook the potential for generating financial returns on the funds held in AP accounts. Centime offers a groundbreaking solution: an AP bank account that earns interest on deposits.

By simply maintaining a target balance, businesses can turn their AP function into a profit center. This innovative approach allows businesses to leverage their existing vendor payments to generate additional income, offsetting costs and boosting working capital.

What’s the difference between Centime and BILL for AR?

BILL offers basic invoicing and reminders but lacks true AR automation. Collections still require manual follow-ups, and payments don’t sync in real-time with your ERP.

Centime automates invoicing, collections, and cash application, ensuring faster payments, smart escalation workflows, and real-time reconciliation. If you need a fully automated AR process that connects to AP and forecasting, Centime delivers.

Can I use Centime just for AP or AR?

Yes! You can start with AP automation, AR automation, or both, depending on what your business needs most. Many customers begin with AP, then expand into AR and cash forecasting once they see the benefits of a unified solution.

How long does it take to switch from BILL to Centime?

Most businesses are up and running with Centime in 7–21 days. Our team handles the migration, data sync, and ERP setup to ensure a seamless transition with minimal disruption.

What are the benefits of Centime outside of AP? How does it integrate with Centime AR, Banking, and Expense Management?

Centime is more than just an AP tool—it’s a fully integrated finance platform. Unlike BILL, which is AP-only and requires third-party payment processors, Centime combines AP, AR, cash flow forecasting, and banking into a single, seamless system.

This means businesses can manage cash flow, automate AR collections, and optimize vendor payments—all from one platform.
