Case Study: BrandMuscle achieves 30 hours/month AP time savings and streamlined payment processing with Edenred Pay

Eliminating manual payment processing results in improved efficiencies and time saved for leading integrated marketing company

BrandMuscle, a leading integrated marketing company that supports local and partner marketing for hundreds of major brands, was burdened by a manual accounts payable process—printing and mailing over 1,000 checks monthly—creating significant staff time drains and operational risk. To modernize their ERP-connected payables, BrandMuscle implemented Edenred Pay’s AP automation and virtual card solution, integrated with NetSuite.

Edenred Pay automated ACH and virtual card payments, eliminated manual check stuffing, and streamlined approvals, enabling a seamless work‑from‑home transition in March 2020. The change delivered measurable impact: roughly 8 hours saved per week (about 30 hours per month) in AP, faster bank reconciliation with fewer outstanding checks, and additional revenue from virtual card rebates, freeing the team to contribute across the business.
