Shopify has tapped Israeli B2B payments startup Melio to launch a new bill payment tool that has been designed to give US merchant customers the ability to manage their expenses and vendors via its platform.
The company‘s global head of merchant services partnerships, Shruti Patel, claimed it was another step in Shopify’s plan to become the first port of call for fintech and commerce merchants.
Shopify hopes that if merchants can spend less time on tedious tasks such as consolidating their invoices and paying bills, they can spend more time focusing on growing their businesses on the platform.
