Dynamic Discounting Capabilities
Marco Polo offers configurable sliding-scale discount engines that adjust offer rates based on real-time liquidity demand, funder utilization, and cost of capital — enabling buyers to capture 2–4% additional cash savings versus static discount programs. Suppliers see personalized discount offers in real time via a self-service portal, increasing acceptance rates.
AI-Driven Cash Flow Analytics
The platform leverages machine learning to forecast cash position impact, model DPO changes, and recommend optimal payment timing across suppliers and currencies. What-if scenario analysis allows treasury teams to simulate payment term changes and funding strategy adjustments before execution.
Supplier Financing Flexibility
Beyond dynamic discounting, Marco Polo facilitates reverse factoring and approved payables financing, allowing suppliers to monetize invoices without requiring individual bank relationships. Multi-funder routing automatically routes financing requests to the lowest-cost funder, improving net cost of capital for both buyer and supplier.
Deployment Speed
Pre-built ERP connectors and a standardized supplier onboarding workflow enable go-live within 3–6 months, faster than legacy supply chain finance platforms. Cloud-native infrastructure and API-first architecture reduce custom integration overhead.
Global Banking Network
Marco Polo's network includes 50+ participating banks and alternative funders globally, enabling buyers to access diverse funding sources and optimize cost of capital by geography and supplier tier. This ecosystem density reduces reliance on single-bank relationships.
Real-Time Payment Visibility
Blockchain-based invoice recording and payment tracking provide immutable, real-time visibility into invoice status, discount offers, and payment timelines for all stakeholders. This transparency reduces disputes, accelerates dispute resolution, and improves forecast accuracy.
Multi-Currency & Cross-Border Support
Native support for 50+ currencies and automated FX handling enable seamless cross-border supplier financing. Currency conversion is optimized within the platform, and multi-currency funding pools reduce intermediary costs.
Dynamic Discounting Capabilities
Medius offers a sliding-scale discount engine that automatically calculates and presents discounts based on invoice amount, payment speed, and supplier tier, enabling rapid decision-making without manual offer generation.
AI-Driven Cash Flow Analytics
The platform includes AI-powered working capital dashboard and DPO impact modelling that forecasts cash flow scenarios and recommends optimal discount levels to balance buyer cash benefit with supplier adoption.
Supplier Financing Flexibility
Medius supports multiple financing models—dynamic discounting, reverse factoring, approved payables finance, and virtual cards—with flexible funder allocation rules by supplier tier, geography, and currency, allowing buyers to tailor programs to supplier needs.
Deployment Speed
Pre-built connectors to major ERPs and P2P platforms, plus template-based banking partner setup, reduce deployment time to 3–6 months versus 6–12 months for custom-build competitors.
Global Banking Network
Medius has established relationships with leading global banks and alternative funders across North America, Europe, and APAC, enabling buyers to structure multi-currency programs without managing individual bank negotiations.
Real-Time Payment Visibility
The supplier portal and buyer dashboard provide real-time visibility into offer status, payment timelines, and cash released, with automated notifications to both parties on acceptance and execution.
Multi-Currency & Cross-Border Support
Native support for multi-currency invoices, FX hedging options, and cross-border payment routing, allowing enterprises to run global programs without managing separate regional platforms.
Dynamic Discounting Capabilities
AvidXchange's dynamic discounting engine supports sliding-scale discounts with cost-of-capital trade-off calculations, enabling buyers to offer real-time incentives tied to early payment windows and supplier liquidity profiles.
AI-Driven Cash Flow Analytics
The platform uses predictive analytics to model DPO impact and forecast working capital release under various payment-term scenarios, helping CFOs optimize cash conversion cycles without harming supplier relationships.
Supplier Financing Flexibility
Support for multi-funder programs (bank and non-bank lenders) combined with supplier segmentation rules allows buyers to customize program eligibility by tier, geography, and cash sensitivity, maximizing participation rates.
Deployment Speed
Pre-built connectors to Coupa, SAP Ariba, Basware, and Oracle Fusion accelerate integration, with typical go-live in 3–6 months for organizations using standard P2P platforms.
Global Banking Network
Established partnerships with Tier-1 banks and alternative lenders in North America, Europe, and APAC enable multi-currency, cross-border financing; the platform supports local payment methods and regulatory requirements.

Dashboard views of supplier acceptance status, offer timelines, and funding drawdowns provide end-to-end transparency into program performance and cash release.
