BlueSnap and BigCommerce unveil B2B payment integration

BlueSnap, renowned for its global payment orchestration platforms, has joined forces with Commerce, the Nasdaq-listed parent of BigCommerce, to introduce an unprecedented integration. This partnership brings forth a B2B payments and AR automation solution crafted solely for BigCommerce B2B Edition users.

The BigCommerce B2B Edition, tailor-made for sectors like manufacturing, distribution, and wholesaling, now boasts advanced functionalities. Through a seamless integration with top-tier ERP systems such as NetSuite, Sage Intacct, Microsoft Dynamics Business Central, and QuickBooks, merchants are set to benefit from groundbreaking AR automation and two-way ERP connectivity.

The solution facilitates streamlined operations, optimises payments, and ensures a consistent customer journey across e-commerce and financial platforms.

The integration introduces several advantages for BigCommerce B2B merchants, outlined as follows:

• Unifying E-commerce and ERP: The real-time synchronisation of customer and invoice data between BigCommerce and prominent ERPs, notably NetSuite, Sage Intacct, Microsoft Dynamics, and QuickBooks, minimises manual tasks and reduces reconciliation errors.
• Streamlining the Buyer Experience: A branded portal allows buyers to view and settle e-commerce orders alongside ERP invoices, accepting payments via credit cards, flexible terms, deposits, and part payments.
• Automating AR Workflows: Features like autopay, incentives for early payments, invoice alerts, and real-time updates serve to accelerate receivables while improving cash flow.
• Simplifying the Tech Stack: The elimination of third-party middleware, consolidation of payment gateways, and reduction of tech debt consolidate a complete integrated front-to-back solution.

“With BlueSnap enhancing B2B Edition, merchants get a single solution for payments and AR that drives efficiency and enhances the buyer experience,” attests Henry Helgeson, BlueSnap's CEO. This collaboration highlights the significance of ERP-driven e-commerce and concurrent dedication to innovating within the B2B commercial landscape.
