Stop Vendor Payment Fraud Before It Hits Your Ledger
Your AP team isn't a fraud prevention unit — but every day, that's exactly what they're being asked to be.
Graphite Connect puts a verified, fraud-resistant onboarding process between every supplier and every payment, so Finance can stop chasing suppliers and close books faster.
The Finance and AP Problem Most Platforms Ignore
Bank detail change fraud — the #1 source of B2B payment loss
Manual W-9 / W-8 collection — endless email chains, missing fields, expired forms
Tax ID mismatches that don't surface until 1099 season
Slow supplier setup blocking POs and frustrating the business
Duplicate vendor records causing duplicate payments
No audit trail when something goes wrong with a payment
Most "vendor management" tools just hand suppliers a form. Graphite Connect actually verifies what they enter.
How Graphite Connect Helps Finance and AP teams
Multi-layer bank account verification — automated
Every bank account a supplier provides goes through a verification gauntlet before it ever reaches your ERP:
- Automated bank ownership verification against the actual account holder
- Network Protection — cross-checks against the 800,000+ suppliers in Graphite's verified network
- Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) and Telecom check of supplier contacts
- Document and identity verification through cutting-edge technologies trusted by the leading financial institutions and TSA.
- White-Glove Specialist callbacks within 24–48 hours for high-risk changes
The result: $250 billion in payments processed using Graphite data in 2025 and ZERO fraud.
The Diamond Guarantee — up to $250K in payment protection
Graphite is the only supplier management platform that backs its verification with a financial guarantee. Eligible vendor payments are covered up to $250,000 against fraud-related loss. That's the level of confidence we have in our verification stack — and the level of confidence we want your CFO to have in yours.
AI-driven tax form collection and validation
- W-9, W-8BEN, W-8BEN-E documents collected, validated, and stored automatically with our leading AI extraction process
- Real-time TIN matching against IRS records
- Multi-jurisdiction tax ID validation (VAT, GST, ABN, and more)
- Automatic re-collection when forms expire
1099 season stops being a fire drill.
ERP-native supplier master data
Graphite syncs verified supplier records directly into the ERP your team already lives in:
- SAP S/4HANA (direct and via MDG)
- Oracle Cloud, EBS, JDE, PeopleSoft
- Workday (REST, SOAP, Studio, EIB)
- NetSuite
- 50+ more, plus iPaaS support for SAP CPI/BTP, MuleSoft, and Boomi
No more re-keying. No more "is this the same vendor?" Golden Records ensure every supplier exists exactly once across every customer they work with.
Onboard 85% faster — and unblock the business
Graphite customers report onboarding times dropping from months to days. That means POs get cut faster, projects get unblocked, and AP stops being seen as the team that says "no."
“Our supplier onboarding went from three months to under 10 days.”
A complete, exportable audit trail
Every field change, every approval, every bank update is captured with 7 years of immutable audit logs. SOX evidence is one export away. So is the internal audit's monthly request.
