Centime helps mid-market companies simplify finance operations by bringing payables, receivables, expenses, forecasting, and banking into one connected platform. Rather than managing a patchwork of systems, finance teams work directly in their ERP—NetSuite, Sage Intacct, or QuickBooks—with Centime fully embedded for a seamless experience. The platform is designed to deliver both efficiency and financial return. Accounts Payable is transformed with AI-driven invoice capture, PO matching, and approvals, while vendor payments generate 3.0% APY—effectively turning a cost center into a source of yield. Accounts Receivable automation speeds collections through intelligent workflows, customer portals, and faster cash application, cutting DSO and improving visibility into future cash inflows. Expense reporting is mobile-first and policy-driven, providing real-time control without the need for separate software. Forecasting tools include a rolling 13-week view and scenario modeling, equipping finance leaders with clarity on cash position and potential risks. Business banking features such as high-yield checking, FDIC-insured sweeps, account aggregation, and secure transfers are built directly into the same system. Centime is recognized for rapid onboarding—most clients are live within weeks—and consistently praised for best-in-class support. By combining automation and modern banking in a single solution, Centime enables finance teams to save time, reduce complexity, and make smarter decisions about working capital.
