What do you dislike about Melio?

I dislike Melio's speed of payment for some payments, but I am not sure if that is a Melio issue or a receiver issue.

What problems is Melio solving and how is that benefiting you?

I am using Melio fo my ACH transactions because my bank does not readily offer it.

"Hassle free way to pay!"
What do you like best about Melio?

Melio is so easy to use and I love the option of being able to schedule payments. Just set it and it's taken care of!

What do you dislike about Melio?

No downsides at all. It's a great solution to keep track of payments!

What problems is Melio solving and how is that benefiting you?

Melio solved my problem of keeping track of my subcontractor invoices/payments. I just load em up and then they alert me when one is coming due! We pay our rent also and it's always on time because of Melio! Scheduling out recurring payments is awesome!

"Melio has made my life so much easier!"
What do you like best about Melio?

Ease of use - intuitive design - no hidden fees - exactly as advertised - looks professional to recipients - allows for the easiest, no hassle wire transfers -

What do you dislike about Melio?

I don't have anything in particular to criticize - as someone who uses a small, boutique internet bank for business (one that doesn't allow wire transfers) Melio has been a lifesaver.

What problems is Melio solving and how is that benefiting you?

I use a bank that doesn't allow for any direct transfers, and my wholesaler will ONLY accept direct wire payments. So, Melio has been an easy and wonderful solution.

"I love Melio Payments!"
What do you like best about Melio?

I love the flexibility of payment options, the ability to pay contractors via credit card, and the useful tool of just forwarding the invoices to the inbox! It's truly great!

What do you dislike about Melio?

Nothing to note here. There has been nothing so far that has dissatisfied me!

What problems is Melio solving and how is that benefiting you?

One way that it stands out is being able to select for the payor of an invoice in Accounts Receivables is deciding where to delegate the processing fee if they use a credit card.

"Reliable Payment Portal"

I like that Melio is extremely easy to navigate and use for AP.

What do you dislike about Melio?

I do not like having to reach out to the support team to void a payment or a check.

What problems is Melio solving and how is that benefiting you?

It wasn't as easy to bulk pay bills in our other payment portal as it is while using Melio - that is the best part.

"The best way of keeping track of contract workers payments and easy billing!"
What do you like best about Melio?

The simplicity of sending out payments to vendors that I use especially for those that I hire multiple times throughout the year. I'm able to pay them and also keep track of how much I pay them throughout the year for tax time ease.

What do you dislike about Melio?

My vendors can't add in their W-9 so I can consolidate all of their tax information in one area for my CPA. I would like them to be able to fill in their contact information themselves as well.

What problems is Melio solving and how is that benefiting you?

Keeping track of 1099s for contract workers! I know what I need to send to my CPA for taxes much more easily. I have one less thing to worry about every year when compiling my taxes to hand over to my CPA.

"Ease of use bill payments"
What do you like best about Melio?

I'm able to schedule multiple payments in advance and later balance my account on the go. I could pay vendors by ach or I could use their check payment option but it comes with a fee

What do you dislike about Melio?

Some glitches the software had in the past, after initiating a payment to a vendor account it automatically sent out the payment to a single use card even when the vendor didn't set up.

What problems is Melio solving and how is that benefiting you?

Melio transformed how I do accounts payable from having to manually write checks to click and pay. It simplified vendor payments and shortened the time I used to spend managing.

"ACH + Contributor permissions as it should be"
What do you like best about Melio?

Let's be honest: As owner of a small company, life can be hectic and challenging and traditional banks don't necessarily have your back. Depending on who you are banking with, Melio is an excellent value add on and provides functionalities most regular bank or won't. In a nutshell: you can finally schedule ACH payments for free. Secondly, you can assign "collaborators", being Admin, Accountant or Contributor with varying permissions. Meaning, you can delegate payments to someone in your organization, without them having access to everything and set security thresholds for transfers, etc.

What do you dislike about Melio?

There is a little trick to make payments go out faster that is not well explained: If you add a "bank account", outgoing payments will take a few business days. If you find the "add debit card" under "add bank account" (instead of under "add credit card" where you instinctively might think it is), then payments go out the same or the next business day if scheduled before the cut-off time of 12pm EST. This could be explained a little better. You have to kinda stumble on it to find out.

What problems is Melio solving and how is that benefiting you?

Melio is an excellent Payment solution that allows scheduling of payments at future dates. My regular bank is a little backwards and doesn't provide that feature.
