About
Melio is a fintech platform designed for small businesses to streamline B2B payments and receivables, launched in 2018 by Melio Payments Inc. Headquartered in New York, with offices in Denver and Tel Aviv, it serves businesses globally with a team of over 600. Accessible via meliopayments.com and mobile apps (iOS, Android), Melio offers free ACH transfers and integrates with QuickBooks for seamless accounting. It supports payments via ACH, credit/debit cards (2.9% fee), and checks, even for vendors not on the platform. Melio’s mission is to enhance cash flow and simplify payment workflows, allowing businesses to focus on growth. It powers bill pay for major brands and was named to the 2024 Forbes Fintech 50 and CNBC’s top 250 fintech companies. Security features include PCI Level 1 certification, multi-factor authentication, and 24/7 monitoring. Melio supports international payments to over 80 countries, though only in USD. A promotional offer provides a $300 gift card for international payments over $1,000 by May 31, 2025. The platform’s intuitive design and robust support make it a reliable choice for small businesses.

Melio, founded in 2018 by Matan Bar, Ilan Atias, and Ziv Paz, is a B2B payment platform tailored for small businesses, headquartered in New York with a global presence. Accessible via meliopayments.com and mobile apps for iOS and Android, it simplifies accounts payable and receivable, enabling businesses to pay vendors via ACH bank transfers (free), credit/debit cards (2.9% fee), or checks, even if vendors don’t use Melio. Its seamless integration with QuickBooks automates payment reconciliation, reducing manual errors. Melio supports international payments to over 80 countries, though limited to USD, with competitive exchange rates and transparent fees. The platform’s mobile app allows users to scan invoices, approve payments, and track transactions on the go, enhancing flexibility. Security is a priority, with PCI Level 1 certification, multi-factor authentication, and 24/7 monitoring ensuring safe transactions. Melio’s user-friendly interface and automation features, like bill capture and recurring payments, save up to 50% of bill pay time, per user reviews. Recognized in the 2024 Forbes Fintech 50, Melio powers payment solutions for major brands and supports tax compliance with W-9 collection and Tax1099 sync. Despite positive feedback (4.2/5 on Trustpilot), some users report slow payment delivery. A $300 gift card offer for international payments over $1,000 by May 31, 2025, adds appeal. Melio’s focus on cash flow optimization and simplicity makes it a vital tool for small businesses.

I have no clue why they would reject payment request, requested by freelance artist but they do. Please do not waste your time if you are not a legit business. Go to PayPal.

They didn’t offer an intro promo and they don’t offer any kind of promotions to encourage additional use age. I use other payment providers as a result when I can do more business with Melio.
