NASHVILLE, TN – October 22, 2026 – Billtrust, the B2B Cash Generation Platform, today announced it has been named a Leader in three IDC MarketScape reports published in September 2026:

The IDC MarketScape Vendor Assessments considers key factors in evaluating vendors including market presence, product maturity, enterprise customer adoption, functional depth, integration breadth, global capabilities, operational scale, governance, and the vendor’s ability to support complex revenue-to-cash environments.

“The next phase of enterprise AR is about coordinating the decisions that determine when revenue becomes cash, while giving finance the visibility and control to know why those decisions were made,” said Kevin Permenter, Senior Research Director, Financial Applications at IDC. “As finance teams look to bridge legacy collections with autonomous workflows, Billtrust’s underlying transaction data, existing supplier network, and agentic capabilities give it the necessary foundation to deliver that level of operational coordination.”

The triple recognition spans the full range of B2B companies Billtrust serves, from complex enterprise environments managing multi-ERP operations and growing midmarket businesses that need to shorten the distance between the invoice and usable cash, to organizations evaluating how direct payment acceptance, cash application, and collections work together. The following strengths were highlighted by the three IDC MarketScapes:

  • According to the IDC MarketScape for AR Automation Software for SMB, “Data advantage from transaction scale: Billtrust’s AI models are trained on a large proprietary data set built over roughly 25 years of AR-exclusive operations. Every transaction processed across the customer base is intended to make the underlying AI models more accurate over time.” That foundation now spans over 20 million buyers and $1 trillion in annual trade credit volume.
  • According to the IDC MarketScape for Embedded Payment Applications in AR, “Core AR workflow capability is consistently robust, reflecting a company built around AR alone: Billtrust’s billing and invoicing; its embedded AR collections and payments; its collections, disputes, and credit risk management; and its AR analytics and collections intelligence, alongside its reporting and analytics, reflect two decades of focus on a single workflow rather than AR as one module among many.”

According to the IDC MarketScape for AR Automation Applications for the Enterprise, “Consider Billtrust if you’re looking for a pure-play, AI-supported order-to-cash platform with a large, pre-enrolled buyer network and integrated payments economics, particularly if consolidating off multiple point tools is also a goal.”

“Processing more B2B trade credit volume than any pure-play AR company on earth and applying that intelligence to release the cash already on our customers’ books is what Billtrust delivers,” said Grant Halloran, Chief Executive Officer at Billtrust. “Finance leaders who choose Billtrust gain a network and a data foundation that releases trapped cash faster and at better economics than they could achieve any other way.”
