The company offers these capabilities with its new ERP-native global payment solution for end-to-end accounts payable (AP) automation, Zone AP Payments, according to a Thursday (Nov. 20) press release.
Zone AP Payments was built in partnership with TransferMate, a provider of embedded B2B payments infrastructure, according to the release.
The solution handles invoice and payment processing for domestic and international vendors, enabling users to move money to more than 200 countries and in 140 currencies, the release said.
“We designed Zone AP Payments to unify every step of AP and empower our customers to scale with confidence,” Zone & Co CEO Thomas Kim said in the release. “Partnering with TransferMate has enabled our global customer base to access same-day payments both domestically and internationally, with one-click vendor payments and highly competitive [foreign exchange] rates—all within their ERP.”
TransferMate CEO Gary Conroy said in the release that by bringing his company’s global payments network directly into the ERP, Zone AP Payments turns a multistep process into a single action.

“Finance teams no longer have to choose between speed, control and visibility,” Conroy said. “Together with Zone & Co, we’re making it possible to move money anywhere in the world instantly, securely and with complete transparency.”
The new solution joins Zone & Co’s other offerings, which include its ERP-native financial operations platform, its NetSuite invoice capture solution ZoneCapture and its NetSuite approval automation solution ZoneApprovals.
The company added enterprise optical character recognition (OCR) capabilities to its procure-to-pay solution in July 2024, when it acquired Staria’s AP automation solution, Staria Flow.
Before that, Zone & Co acquired financial reporting solution provider Solution 7 and payroll and employee-centric solution provider Infinet Cloud.
The PYMNTS Intelligence report “From Back Office to Strategic Powerhouse: AP’s Transformation in 2025” found that AP departments are adopting automation solutions that cover the entire procure-to-pay cycle.
The report also found that integrating automation with ERP systems ensures real-time data synchronization across finance, procurement and other departments.
