Why Payments Belong at the Start of Procure-to-Pay

Payments are often treated as the final step in procure-to-pay, but that limits the value they can bring. In this episode, Paul McMeekin sits down with Kristian "KO" O'Meara, Chief Commercial Officer at PairSoft, a market leader in AI-driven AP automation, procurement, and B2B payments, to discuss why payments need to be considered earlier in the process.Together they explore how finance teams can reduce invoice processing costs, accelerate cycle times, increase touchless processing, and advance accounts payable automation. They also discuss where AI is creating real value across P2P, and where it still falls short. If you're looking to simplify payments, improve AP efficiency, and make automation work harder for your business, this is a practical, honest take on what's working today. #B2BPayments #P2P #ProcureToPay #AI
