JAGGAER has partnered with Conferma to integrate virtual card payments into its source-to-pay platform, enabling organisations to simplify supplier payments, improve spend control and automate procurement workflows.
Embedded Payments Streamline Procure-To-Pay Processes
JAGGAER has announced a new partnership with virtual payments specialist Conferma to embed virtual card payments directly into procurement workflows, helping organisations simplify supplier payments and reduce manual processing for long-tail spend.
The integration allows organisations to generate virtual cards within the JAGGAER platform to pay suppliers at the point of order, while also issuing virtual cards to employees for purchasing and travel expenses.
The capability expands the JAGGAER Pay portfolio and creates a more connected procurement and payments process by enabling supplier transactions to be completed without leaving the procurement platform.
Virtual Cards Improve Procurement and Payment Efficiency
Part of the JAGGAER One platform, JAGGAER Pay is designed to connect procurement and payment within a single workflow rather than relying on separate financial systems.
The partnership with Conferma also marks the expansion of JAGGAER Pay into European markets, making embedded virtual card functionality available to customers outside North America for the first time.
Using their existing corporate card programmes, organisations can generate secure virtual cards for approved purchase orders, helping automate payment and reconciliation while improving spend controls.
The approach simplifies supplier payments, supports working capital management and increases opportunities to generate rebate revenue through greater use of corporate card programmes.
Purchase Order Payments Reduce Invoice Processing
The embedded payment capability is intended to improve the management of high-volume, lower-value and time-sensitive purchases, where traditional invoice processing can create administrative complexity.
By linking virtual cards directly to approved purchase orders, organisations can reduce manual invoice handling and reconciliation activities that typically occur after an order has been placed.
Alastair McMullan, Vice President of Product Management at JAGGAER, said: “When procurement teams highlighted the need to close a critical gap in the procure-to-pay process, JAGGAER listened. By enabling virtual card payments at the point of order, organizations gain greater control and efficiency across purchasing and payments, while continuing to leverage their existing banking relationships.”
Integration Strengthens Supplier Payment Visibility
The solution is powered by Conferma’s network of more than 100 card issuers, allowing organisations to use their existing corporate card programmes as an embedded payment method within procurement workflows.
Customers can activate virtual card payments at the point of order to improve working capital flexibility, reduce supplier payment risk and support more automated reconciliation.
Mark Ledsham, CEO of Conferma, said: “Supplier payments are one of the last major friction points in the procure-to-pay process. By embedding virtual cards directly into approved purchase orders, we’re enabling organizations to pay suppliers faster, with greater visibility and control. Our partnership with JAGGAER reflects a broader shift toward embedded, supplier-centric payments that truly connect procurement and finance.”
New Capability Supports Procurement Transformation
JAGGAER said organisations adopting Purchase Order Payments can benefit from faster supplier payments, reduced reliance on manual invoice processing and reconciliation, enhanced security through tokenised virtual card credentials, improved visibility by linking purchase order and transaction data, and increased rebate opportunities by directing eligible spend through corporate card programmes
The capability is now available globally and has been designed for streamlined implementation, enabling organisations to modernise supplier payment processes while maintaining their existing banking relationships and procurement operations.
