Reduce the time, effort, and cost of settlements.
Outsource settlement processing to reduce hands-on control of contractor deductions, save administrative time, lower misclassification risk, and improve efficiency.
Third-party contractor settlement and deduction processing
Contractor settlement payments
Easily complete settlement cycles and give contractors the choice of receiving their settlement payments by check, ACH, or debit card, however they prefer. Our system calculates the net settlement to disburse to contractors and the deduction and reserve amounts to remit to vendors.
Cloud-based software
With SettleUP, there is no costly accounting system or software to purchase and install. Our SaaS application allows for payment and deduction files to be uploaded and recurring items to be scheduled for each period. Local managers can upload payment and deduction information anywhere, anytime.
Real-time view of settlements
Pending payments and deductions are displayed online in real time for greater transparency and so that accounting personnel, local managers, contractors and vendors can resolve any issues before settlements are finalized. Reduce your accounting team's workload with our comprehensive reports that show all settlement activity.
Third-party processing
We enter into agreement with both parties to show how contractors authorize their vendor payments and that the onus for processing deductions is not with your company alone.
