Bank of America Merrill Lynch continues to move forward in the development of payment tools for corporate customers.

In 2011, the bank’s ePayables product achieved a significant milestone when it passed the $10 billion mark in payments processed, firmly establishing BofAML as one of the leading providers of automated payment solutions.
Many large corporations have not yet adopted card-enabled payments to the extent that card issuers might have hoped, but Bank of America’s delivery of the ePayables functions is an important step forward.
