What is Plooto?

Plooto is a cloud-based payment automation platform that helps accounting firms, bookkeepers, finance teams, and SMBs manage accounts payable and accounts receivable from one connected workspace. It is designed to replace manual payment processes, spreadsheets, email approvals, paper checks, and disconnected reconciliation workflows with automated controls. The platform helps users pay vendors, collect customer payments, manage approval chains, track payment status, and sync transaction data with accounting software. Plooto’s accounts payable tools automate bill payment workflows, route approvals to the right people, and help ensure vendors are paid accurately and on time. Its accounts receivable tools support invoice sending, payment collection, recurring payments, and clearer visibility into incoming cash. Businesses can use multiple payment options, including EFT, ACH, credit cards, foreign exchange, and international payments. Plooto also helps teams simplify cross-border payments with transparent fees, competitive exchange rates, and built-in compliance support. Accounting firms can manage multiple clients from a single dashboard, review approvals, and support client payment workflows without taking on unnecessary manual work. Two-way accounting software sync reduces duplicate entry by keeping suppliers, customers, bills, invoices, payments, and reconciliation details updated. Custom approval workflows and audit-friendly controls help businesses maintain safeguards while reducing bottlenecks. With AP automation, AR automation, international payments, client management, approval routing, and accounting integrations, Plooto helps teams save time, reduce errors, and improve control over cash flow.
