Flywire Acquires Invoiced to Bolster its Global B2B Payment Network with Award-winning Accounts Receivable SaaS Platform
August 06 2024 - 4:05PM
Today, Flywire Corporation (Flywire) (Nasdaq: FLYW) a global
payments enablement and software company, announced that it has
acquired Invoiced, a SaaS platform that enables B2B finance teams
and the “Office of the CFO” to automate the critical order-to-cash
process. The acquisition is expected to build on Flywire’s existing
B2B payments business by enhancing the software suite it provides
to its global clients and target segments. Flywire plans to expand
on Invoiced’s successful track record of providing invoicing
software to a diversified client base across industries and
geographies, and reinforces its commitment to powering software and
payments to its target B2B segment, which Flywire estimates to be
responsible for approximately $10 trillion in global payment
volume.
Invoiced’s SaaS platform empowers B2B finance teams to automate
A/R processes by managing invoices, communicating with payers, and
reconciling payments to their Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP)
systems. Invoiced does this through deep integrations with leading
accounting systems and ERPs, including Oracle’s NetSuite, Sage
Intacct, and Microsoft Business Dynamics. With a diversified global
client base, Invoiced has a successful track record of delivering
mission-critical software, having recently been named the #1 2024
A/R Automation Software by G2 Crowd. The combination of Invoiced’s
A/R automation software with Flywire’s proprietary global payment
network - which supports diverse payment methods in more than 140
currencies across 240 countries and territories around the world -
is expected to provide the B2B payments industry with a combined
full-suite software and payments solution that streamlines
workflows for finance departments.
“We seek M&A opportunities that will help us enhance our
value proposition and strengthen our financial performance, while
underscoring our core thesis that software drives value in
payments,” said Mike Massaro, Flywire CEO. “We believe Invoiced is
an ideal software complement to our existing B2B payments business.
Invoiced will help us significantly accelerate our product roadmap,
and its Accounts Receivable product focus has strong alignment with
Flywire’s global payment acceptance capabilities.”
Digital transformation efforts drive demand for
automated A/R processes
Businesses are increasingly investing in Accounts Receivable
(A/R) solutions to improve their financial operations and cash flow
management. According to industry research, the global Accounts
Receivable Automation revenue market size is estimated to grow from
USD 3.3 billion in 2022 to USD 6.5 billion by 2027, at a compound
annual growth rate of 14.2% during the forecast period. This
investment includes expenditures on software, cloud services, and
integration with existing financial systems, underscoring the
critical role of A/R solutions in enhancing efficiency, reducing
errors, and supporting better financial decision-making.
Additionally, the global push for compliance with tax regulations
and the need to streamline cross-border transactions further
enhance the demand for sophisticated invoicing solutions.
Complements strong organic growth
The acquisition of Invoiced is a continuation of Flywire’s
long-term plan to supplement its strong organic growth and expand
across business lines. Flywire expects Invoiced to add
approximately $2M of revenue with software-like gross margins in FY
2024, and while Invoiced has healthy Adjusted EBITDA margins,
Flywire expects to reinvest the majority of the margin dollars this
year to grow the combined business. More details will be shared on
the upcoming earnings call scheduled for August 6, 2024.
