Funding Account Payor

In Procore Pay, a funding account is a bank account where money is held by a financial institution and controlled by the payor. This is the 'Pay From' account.

How does it work? After the account owner authorizes the disbursement in Procore Pay, the financial institution for the deposit account:

  • Submits a 'drawdown' request to the funding account for the disbursement amount.
  • Withdraws the disbursement amount from the funding account. This is the 'drawdown of funds.'
  • This is a bank account that you open with your financial institution.
  • You can add one (1) or more funding accounts. 
  • A funding account must be mapped to a deposit account.

  • Transmits the authorized disbursement amount into the deposit account to complete the 'drawdown of funds.'
  • Processes the authorized payment orders for each invoice in the disbursement.
  • Withdraws each invoice payment from the deposit account. 
  • You must open at least one (1) deposit account during the Procore Pay implementation process.

Beneficiary Account Payee

In Procore Pay, a beneficiary account is a bank account where money is held by a financial institution and controlled by the payee. This is the 'Pay To' bank account. 

How does it work? After the invoice payment is withdrawn from the deposit account, each payee on the disbursement: 

  • Receives their invoice payment as a deposit in their beneficiary account.
  • This is the payee's invoice payment that completes the payment transaction. 
  • For payees, a beneficiary account is termed a bank account. 
  • For payors, it is termed a beneficiary account.
  • Payees can add multiple beneficiary accounts to their Procore account. 
  • Payees can only designate one (1) bank account to receive payments.
