Connect to Business Applications with Tipalti’s Powerful and Secure Supplier Payments API

Streamline and automate accounts payable and supplier payment data processes by integrating with Tipalti’s unique platform. Deep API access keeps additional ERP and account systems in-sync and reconciled.

Full-Featured SOAP APIs Power Integrations

Our data source expertise and SOAP APIs help you integrate Tipalti to existing systems to automate AP data syncs, payment, and reconciliation processes. Separate API calls exist for payee and payer functions. You can use the Tipalti sandbox environment for development and testing and the production environment for API deployment.

Highly Secure API Calls

All API calls, including calls to obtain a short-term key, are white-listed and authenticated for maximum security with cryptographic signature of the API parameters. Keys contain a randomizing component so repeat calls have different keys with a limited lifetime. IP restrictions provide another layer of security, giving you confidence that all API calls are completely secure.

Detailed Audit Logs

All actions are logged with the IP and username of the performing user for full transparency and visibility. Tipalti can also send notifications to an endpoint of your choosing for actions such as when a payment is submitted or when a payee changes details.

Granular API Roles

User roles are required to perform specific API functions and can be segmented by payee and payer actions. Users can be assigned to one or more roles and permission functions include updating or creating payee information, custom fields, GL accounts, and invoices; processing payments; and testing payment files.
