Brex and Zip now let AP teams pay approved invoices with an automatically generated virtual card. Once an invoice is approved in Zip, a unique virtual card is created and locked to the invoice amount, currency, subsidiary, and time window, keeping the payment tied to that specific bill.

Approvers can send the card securely to the vendor or assign a cardholder to pay on their behalf. When the card is used, the transaction is automatically matched to the invoice, synced to your ERP as a bill payment, and the invoice is marked paid.

The result is a faster, more controlled way to pay invoices in Zip with less manual reconciliation.

To enable this feature, reach out to your Brex rep.
