Key Takeaways

Written by the SkillEngine team

BILL is a strong choice when you want to automate both sending invoices and paying bills, with tight accounting sync. It is aimed at businesses with regular billing volume rather than occasional invoices.

Our Verdict

BILL works best for growing businesses and accounting firms that want to streamline AR and AP together. Freelancers with simple needs may not need its full feature set.

What is BILL?

BILL is a financial operations platform used by many small and mid-sized businesses and their accountants. On the receivables side, it lets you create and send invoices, offer online payment options and track who has paid.

On the payables side, it captures bills, routes them for approval and pays vendors. Two-way sync with accounting systems such as QuickBooks, Xero and NetSuite keeps records up to date.
