Industry-Leading B2B Payments Platform partners with Premier Expense Analytics Solution to Drive Unprecedented Value for Hotels, Resorts, and Restaurant Groups
ORLANDO, FL / ACCESS Newswire / December 2, 2025 / Finexio, the pioneering Accounts Payable Payments-as-a-Service platform, today announced a transformative strategic partnership with RipplePoint, the hospitality industry's premier SaaS expense analytics platform trusted by hundreds of properties for over 20 years. This landmark collaboration delivers an end-to-end financial transformation solution that empowers hospitality operators to achieve 30-60% cost reductions while converting accounts payable from a cost center into a profit generator.
The $570 billion hospitality industry faces unprecedented operational complexity, managing thousands of supplier relationships across multiple locations while navigating diverse ownership structures and brand requirements. With labor costs at historic highs and operational efficiency paramount, forward-thinking hospitality groups are seeking integrated technology solutions that deliver both immediate cost relief and sustainable competitive advantages.
Transformative Solution for a Critical Industry Need
RipplePoint's comprehensive evaluation of the payments landscape identified Finexio as the only partner capable of delivering the sophisticated, embedded infrastructure required for true financial transformation. The partnership addresses a critical industry pain point: hotels and restaurants currently spend 10-15 hours weekly on manual AP tasks while leaving millions in potential revenue on the table through inefficient payment methods.
Through this collaboration, hospitality operators gain access to institutional-grade payment capabilities previously available only to Fortune 500 companies. The integrated solution delivers:
Revenue Generation: Transform AP spend into cash back earnings through optimized virtual card programs, directly improving bottom-line profitability
Operational Excellence: Reduce AP processing time by 70% through intelligent automation and seamless supplier onboarding
Enterprise Security: Bank-grade fraud protection powered by JPMorgan's infrastructure shields operations from payment fraud and cyber threats
Actionable Intelligence: Combined analytics and payment data provide unprecedented visibility into spend patterns and optimization opportunities
"In today's hospitality landscape, operational excellence and financial optimization are not just competitive advantages, they are survival imperatives," said Ernest Rolfson, CEO and Founder of Finexio. "By partnering with RipplePoint, we're delivering a solution that fundamentally transforms how hospitality businesses manage their financial operations. Our combined platform doesn't just reduce costs; it creates new revenue streams, enhances security, and provides the financial intelligence needed to thrive in an increasingly complex industry. This partnership represents a paradigm shift in hospitality financial management."
"Our partnership with Finexio represents a watershed moment for the hospitality industry," said Dustin Reineke, President and CEO of RipplePoint. "For over 20 years, we've helped hospitality operators achieve dramatic cost reductions through our analytics platform. By providing Finexio's best-in-class payment capabilities to our customer base, we're now able to deliver a complete financial transformation solution that addresses every aspect of expense management and payment processing.
