flag-us.png Procore Pay icon-external-link.png  is available in the United States. It is designed for General Contractors and Owner-Builders who act as their own General Contractors on a job. Procore Pay extends the Invoice Management icon-external-link.png functionality in the Procore web application to handle the payment process between general and specialty contractors.

Objective

To invite payees to join Procore Pay. 

Background

When using Procore Pay to pay subcontractor invoices, it's recommended that an invoice administrator invite the invoice contact on a commitment to join Procore Pay. Once invited, the invoice contact can then link their bank account and complete the account verification process to receive invoice payments. The account that the payee links to Procore Pay is called a beneficiary account in the Payments tool. 

An alternative method for inviting payees to join Procore Pay is also available in the Beneficiaries tab of the Payments tool. With this method, a Payments Admin or Payments Beneficiary Approver invites company contacts to set up Procore Pay and add beneficiary accounts. 

After adding a beneficiary account, a Payments Admin or a Payments Beneficiary Approver for the payor must approve the account. Later, as part of the subcontractor invoice process, invoice administrators can invite downstream invoice contacts to submit their invoices in Procore using the Commitments tool.

Steps

Invite a Beneficiary from the Payments Tool

A Payments Admin or a Payments Beneficiary Approver can invite a beneficiary company to set up Procore Pay and add beneficiary accounts from the Payments tool. 

  1. Navigate to the company's Payments tool. 
  2. On the Beneficiaries tab, click Invite Company. 
  3. In the Invite to Procore Pay prompt, take the following steps under Invite Beneficiary Company:
    • Select the payee's company record from the Company drop-down list. 
    • Select one (1) of the company's employees from the Send Invite To drop-down list. You can invite up to 20 companies.  
       Tip
      • Company already connected? If the connected-icon.png icon and gray banner appears above the Company drop-down list, the company is already connected to the system, the system preselects the company's authorized contacts for you. 
      • Can't find the company or person in the drop-down lists? If a company has already received an invite, they won't appear in this list. If you need to add a new company, see Add a Company to the Company Directory. 
      • Want to invite company contacts in bulk? If so, click the Add Another Company button and repeat the steps above for each company to add. You can invite up to ten (10) companies at a time. 
  4. Click Invite.

An email message with the subject line 'Invitation to Procore Pay' or 'Link Bank Account to Receive Payments' is sent to the invoice contact. The message sent depends on whether the 'Contract Company' on the commitment already has a free or paid Procore account (and also if the company doesn't have a Procore company account). The invoice contact can continue with the next step.
