Case Study: Leading Gaming Company automates global invoice payments and reclaims team time with Tipalti

How a European Family Office Is Investing in a More Sustainable World

A first-generation European family office, founded by a retired gaming‑software CEO, invests in climate-technology startups (over $10M deployed and 12+ companies in Iceland) and runs a small, tech‑forward team focused on decarbonization. As the firm expanded globally it began receiving 180+ vendor invoices per month, all processed manually via email—an inefficient workflow that cost roughly half of a full‑time equivalent’s time and caused payment delays and missed approvals.

To fix this, the team documented the process in a project-management app, evaluated platforms, and implemented Tipalti’s accounts‑payable automation integrated with QuickBooks and Microsoft Navision. The result: all invoices and international payments are automated (including local currencies), delays and missed approvals dropped, the team reclaimed weekly hours for strategic work, and the firm is now positioned to scale operations confidently.
