Official factConfidence 88%2 linked sources

Core AP is sold by quote with unlimited invoice capture, entities/locations and vendors. Semi-automated two-/three-way PO matching is included; Billy full automation is available subject to the agreed scope. Onboarding and a dedicated Customer Success Manager are included in the AP package. Procurement, Direct Pay, Cards and Advanced Vendor Management have separate product scopes. AP fees and the initial subscription term follow the Order Form. The default term renews for a period equal to the initial term unless either party gives at least 30 days’ notice of nonrenewal; service fees are non-refundable. Direct Pay has its own payment-fee arrangements.

Official pricing page
Pricing cautions
  • Confirm the AP quote and module boundaries: The quote must distinguish core AP from Procurement, Payments, Cards and Advanced Vendor Management; availability of full Billy matching automation does not by itself establish its price.
  • Confirm the initial term and renewal notice: The Order Form controls the initial term and fees; default renewal repeats the initial subscription period unless nonrenewal notice is given at least 30 days before expiry.
  • Review non-refundable fees: The Master Subscription Agreement makes service fees non-refundable.
  • Budget Direct Pay separately: Direct Pay has its own pay-as-you-go or payment-bundle fee arrangements; unused monthly bundle payments expire, and payment terms must not be applied to the AP subscription.
  • Confirm the ERP matching configuration: Two-/three-way matching depends on the configured workflow and available ERP data; confirm the scope of full automation separately.

  • 8 of 8 weighted claims have evidence links.
  • 2 A1 documentary official sources and 5 A2 official product sources are linked.
  • 1 independent review sources are retained, including 1 professional sources with an explicit hands-on method.
  • No weighted claim is past the review window.
  • No blocking evidence conflict was identified.
Approval workflow control20%
82

Approval routing, configurable controls, role-based access, and approval history support controlled invoice review; buyers should confirm how their own delegation and escalation rules are configured.

Coding and matching accuracy20%
75

ERP-context coding suggestions and semi-automated two- or three-way PO matching support coding and matching, while full Billy automation depends on agreed scope and ERP configuration; confirm field coverage and exception handling for the selected setup.

Invoice capture quality20%
78

Invoice capture includes duplicate detection and ERP-context coding suggestions, giving AP staff signals to review during processing; buyers should validate capture accuracy and document handling for their invoice mix.

Accounting and ERP integration15%
66

Stampli connects AP processing to supported accounting systems while the ERP remains the system of record; buyers should validate field mapping, invoice and payment status updates, reconciliation, and integration-error handling for their specific ERP.

Vendor payment management15%
54

Direct Pay provides a distinct vendor-payment workflow with its own fee arrangements, but the core AP offer does not establish payment execution as included; buyers should scope payment methods, remittance, and status visibility separately.

AP exception visibility10%
76

Duplicate flags, invoice audit history, reports, and dashboards give teams several ways to review processing activity; buyers should verify how matching failures, missing information, and aging unpaid items appear in their configured workflow.

Detailed strengths and purchase cautions
Pros

Why it is worth considering

  • Invoice capture flags duplicates and uses ERP context to suggest coding and route approvals, which can support a review process centered on each invoice.
  • Invoice discussions and audit history keep related collaboration and decision records with the invoice workflow.
  • The core AP package states that invoice capture, entities or locations, and vendors are unlimited, while onboarding and a dedicated Customer Success Manager are included.
Cons

What to confirm before buying

  • Core AP is quote-based, and the Order Form sets its fees and initial term, so buyers need a written scope and commercial proposal to compare total costs.
  • Semi-automated PO matching is included, but full Billy automation depends on agreed scope and ERP configuration
  • verify which matching steps are automated for your workflow.
  • Direct Pay is a separate module with its own payment-fee arrangements, so the core AP offer does not by itself establish that payment execution is included.
