Strategic B2B Payments
in the Digital Age

Results from the Strategic B2B Payments in the Digital Age B2B payments survey conducted in partnership with Financial Executives International (FEI) indicate that nearly half of all companies say their B2B payment processes need major improvement. Over 70% still rely on manual AP workflows, and nearly 60% of suppliers cite high acceptance costs as a top concern.

This research provides a comprehensive view of the current state of B2B payment operations, outlining structural challenges, gaps in efficiency, and the realities finance teams face in day-to-day execution. It also examines how leading organizations are modernizing their payment environments and offers a structured framework for transforming payment operations into a strategic driver of business performance.

Highlights include:

  • 70% of respondents indicated the B2B AP processes were at least half manually operated, and almost 70% for AR.
  • 51% of B2B payments were made via ACH/Bank transfer, followed by checks (22%), wire transfers (13%), static commercial cards (8%), virtual commercial cards (3%), and other (2%).
  • 64% are interested in automating AP processes further.
  • 80% of companies with the most significant need to address B2B payment processes are unable to, citing budget concerns, insufficient executive buy-in, and other priorities.
