Bill.com Launches New Android App for Streamlined Mobile Payments

Bill.com, which offers tools and apps for managing online payments and receivables, has launched a new mobile app for Android. With the app, accounting professionals and their business clients can easily review, approve and pay bills on the go using their Android devices.

The release of the app helps digitize and mobilize bill payments by expanding access to Bill.com to the more than 84 million Android users in the United States.

“Growth-focused accounting firms are turning to new technologies for traditionally labor-intensive services like bill payment in order to attract more clients and increase profits. Imagine getting a call from a business client about a bill and being able to resolve the question in a few simple swipes on your mobile phone. That’s the level of simplicity, access and convenience the suite of Bill.com mobile apps offers for accounting firms,” said Konstantinos Giannakis, Director of User Experience and Mobile Product Lead at Bill.com.

The new Android app gives accounting firms and their clients a new level of convenience and collaboration for bill payments. With it, users can eliminate time-consuming manual processes such as chasing down approvers, printing and getting checks signed and stuffing envelopes.

Instead, accountants can securely access their firm’s account upon opening the app, giving them the ability to review new bills, original invoices, the trail of approvers, notes, previously approved or denied bills and payment history for all their clients. Bills can be sorted by due date, vendor names, amount or time pending in the approval queue. A simple swipe left or right serves to approve or deny a bill for payment.

Accountants with multiple clients using Bill.com can easily switch organizations while signed in and security is supported through passcode authentication.

The Android app is free for existing Bill.com users and is available on Google Play.

In June of last year, Bill.com released its iOS mobile app. The iOS version is also free for existing Bill.com users and can be accessed via iPhone, iPad, and iPod Touch.
