Pros
I love that I can set up recurring payments to my contractors.
Cons
The online platform is not the most user-friendly for me, but I can usually figure things out after reading through their help files.

We started using Melio when they integrated with Quickbooks Online and they made it so simple to pay our high-cost vendors quickly; after the integration ended, we found them on their own and have been ecstatic that the separate site functions almost exactly like it did in Quickbooks. It's truly one of the best payment systems I have.
Pros
How quickly it connects with our Intuit account, which meant that I didn't need to load every single bill in our system into Melio so I could start payments to vendors.
Cons
I do not have any cons with my use of Melio.

No Longer An Asset to My Clients or Practice

Terrible!!
Terrible!!
Pros
There is absolutely nothing I like about Melio anymore. This payment service is not ideal. Most of my clients do not use it. And for the one's who do, I am working to remove them from the platform.
Cons
Melio declines all expedited payments no matter the amount. Payments that they used to allow to be expedited that have not changed in dollar amounts or vendors, or payment accounts, are all of a sudden being declined consistently causing issues for my clients and causing my payments to be late. Again I am working to remove the remaining few from this platform and encouraging them to use other AP platforms that come with bill pay or simply use their banks. So far I've removed 13 clients and I now need to remove 4 more and I can be done with the nightmare.
Response from Melio
Hi Toni, thanks for sharing this feedback. We're so sorry this has been your experience. We would like to take a look into your client's accounts and see why these payments have been declined. However, we understand if you've already stopped using Melio. Should you decide to use Melio again down the line, please don't hesitate to reach out to us at [email protected] with any questions or feedback. We want to make this a better experience for you.

Pros
I love the ACH payments that we can make to vendors for free. It is super simple and easy! I also like it integrates with our accounting software, QuickBooks.

They recently raised prices on bill pay, which I understand, but has made us move away from them for bill pay items.
