MINNEAPOLIS - U.S. Bank, a prominent player in the banking industry with a market capitalization of $75.5 billion, introduced a new accounts payable solution for small businesses that integrates with business checking accounts, according to a press release issued by the company. According to InvestingPro analysis, the bank currently appears undervalued based on its Fair Value estimates, with 10 analysts recently revising their earnings expectations upward.
The platform, called "U.S. Bank bill pay for business," offers features including streamlined cash flow management, bill payment capabilities, and accounting software integration. The service is now available for new users with any U.S. Bank business checking account.

The solution allows business owners to manage payments in one place within their existing banking dashboard, set up recurring payments, automate vendor invoices, and sync with select accounting software. Users can also receive notifications about payment due dates and access the platform via mobile devices.
According to research cited in the press release, nearly three-quarters of small business owners consider cash flow management and bill payment to be ongoing challenges, while 88% value the ability to centralize bills and invoices into a single process.

The bank developed the platform in collaboration with Fiserv and Melio, integrating Fiserv’s CashFlow Central solution within the U.S. Bank online banking platform.
