What most Tipalti reviews leave out

The $99/month entry price is Accounts Payable, not PO approval; procurement is a quoted add-on.

Complex or multi-ERP setups may need paid professional services.
Procurement came from the Approve.com acquisition (April 2021)
No per-user fees, so approvers are free to add.
