Case Study: Scribd achieves 60% faster financial close and automated procure-to-pay with Tipalti

How the World Reads Through Digital Transformation

Scribd, the world’s leading digital library with millions of pieces of content and a global footprint, faced a rapid scaling challenge: a lean finance team was overwhelmed by high volumes of invoices, manual data entry (tax documents, banking details, GL codes), and fragmented global payments, creating error-prone accounts payable and limited spend visibility.

By implementing Tipalti’s connected procure-to-pay solution—automating PO matching, supplier onboarding, multi-currency payouts, and NetSuite OneWorld reconciliation—Scribd eliminated manual work, avoided hiring two full‑time AP staff, accelerated the financial close by 60%, and gained stronger spend controls and real-time transparency, allowing the finance team to focus on strategic relationships and reporting.
