Tipalti

Tipalti was founded in 2010 by Chen Amit and Oren Levy. The company is headquartered in Foster City, California, with a significant R&D center in Israel. It is privately held; as of its last publicly reported funding round it reached a valuation of $8.3 billion following a $270 million Series F round in 2021. Tipalti operates as a SaaS accounts-payable and global payments automation platform.

Tipalti's primary product automates the end-to-end accounts payable process — including supplier onboarding, tax compliance (W-9/W-8 collection), invoice processing, payment execution, and reconciliation. The platform is designed for mid-market and growth-stage companies that process high volumes of supplier or partner payments globally, particularly in industries such as digital advertising, e-commerce marketplaces, and online gaming. It is sold through a sales-led motion targeting finance teams and CFOs. Tipalti supports payments across more than 190 countries in multiple currencies and payment methods.

The core offering is the Tipalti AP Automation platform, which covers the full payables lifecycle from onboarding through payment and reconciliation. The company also offers Tipalti Approve, a purchase order and procurement workflow product, and Tipalti Expenses for employee expense management. These adjacent products were developed to extend the platform beyond accounts payable into broader financial operations. Tipalti holds SOC 2 Type II certification, which is relevant to its positioning with finance and compliance buyers.
