Paying for the materials and services that keep a property running smoothly has never been simpler or more convenient. That’s because Yardi Bill Pay now allows payments with Mastercard-branded virtual credit cards. Property managers can execute the entire vendor payment transaction process with a single-use virtual card number. The process embeds transaction-level controls and leverages existing workflows, which saves time and money previously required to process paper checks, complete payment file uploads and retrain staff. Built into Yardi Voyager, the system requires no interaction with other data sources. Property managers gain full control and visibility over spend while avoiding per-transaction fees associated with checks and ACH.
