Bill payment built for commercial contractors
Track your subcontractors payments against their original bid, retention, and approved change orders. Verify compliance before scheduling a payment.
We'll do the heavy lifting by sending payment notifications to your subcontractors and requesting bank information when needed.

Add your subcontracts
Add accepted bids for each of your trades.
Add or request bills
Consolidate mailed and emailed invoices on Beam. Ask subcontractors to invoice you on Beam for faster processing & payment.
Schedule payments
Once scheduled, subcontractors receive notifications to track payment status or securely add their bank information.
Automate lien waiver collection
Collecting lien waivers shouldn’t slow down your draw process. Allow your subcontractors to e-sign documents before and after payment, and get real-time visibility into compliance status.
