Why Tipalti Users Prefer Centime

4 Reasons Tipalti Users Make the Switch

No Middleware. No Sync Failures.

Centime connects natively to Intuit QuickBooks, Oracle NetSuite, and Sage Intacct — live on day one. Tipalti bolts on third-party sync tools that break under pressure, causing failed go-lives.

No Fees for Missing Deadlines

Centime gets you live in 7–21 days, without penalizing your team for needing time. Tipalti's 60–90 day rollout comes with fees if you miss their deadlines — even when they're the cause.

See how it works

No Holding Accounts. No Delayed Payments.

Centime pulls funds directly from your bank account — no pre-funding, no float. Tipalti requires you to preload funds, then takes up to 6 days to pay your vendors.

See how it works

More Than Payables. End-to-End Finance Automation.

Centime gives you AP, AR, and real-time cash forecasting in one platform, plus AP yield through interest or cashback. Tipalti stops at invoice payment — no forecasting, no AR, no cash insight.
