Billie, the new standard for B2B payments and a leading provider of payment solutions for business customers, is expanding its availability on Stripe. After launching just last summer, Billie is now the first B2B Pay Later provider to reach general availability status on Stripe’s financial infrastructure. With this, any online shop or marketplace in more than ten countries can now offer Billie to their business customers easily. 

Initially available for merchants selling to business customers in Germany, France, and the Netherlands, eight additional markets have now gone live as part of the global partnership between Billie and Stripe. As of today, merchants can also offer Billie when selling to business customers in Austria, Switzerland, Denmark, Finland, Norway, Sweden, Spain, or the United Kingdom, with more markets to follow soon. 

With Billie, business customers can make purchases and defer a payment for up to 30 days. At the same time, merchants receive payment upfront, making Billie’s payment method a beneficial tool for cash flow management of both merchants and business buyers. Billie makes this possible with real-time approval of buyers at checkout while providing default and fraud risk protection for merchants. Through partnering with Billie, Stripe expands its own offering and enables merchants to offer more payment options and flexibility to business buyers while reducing their credit risk and the administrative burden of collection and dunning processes to zero. 

Next to Pay Later, Billie is offering additional payment solutions and features including Installments, Trade Accounts, Consolidated Statements, and Recurring Payments.

Billie’s solution is seamlessly integrated with Stripe’s platform, making the activation process a matter of minutes and requiring any merchant just to follow a few steps.

Mauro Miotto, Vice President Partnerships and Western Europe adds: “Being the first B2B Pay Later solution reaching the general availability status on Stripe is a testament to our shared vision. We are happy to now offer all Stripe merchants access to flexible payment solutions for their business customers. With this they can grow their customer base, modernize their B2B payment systems, and expand into new markets with ease.”

The expansion with Stripe comes in the wake of strong growth for the Berlin-based scale-up. In April, Billie reached the milestone of having served 750,000 unique business customers, at more than 5,500 shops and marketplaces across Europe. Among them are brands like Alibaba.com, Samsung, and Decathlon.
