Accounts Payable Automation
The City of McMinnville uses a third party vendor payment program to add efficiencies for the City while offering additional payment options to our vendors. The new options becoming available allow for the opportunity to reduce the amount of time it takes for funds to get to vendors as well as potential administrative efficiencies associated with electronic payments.
Note to our vendors: You will continue to send your invoices directly to City of McMinnville. Once we have approved your invoice(s) and submitted the payment request, our new payment processing partner, Nvoicepay, will release the funds with remittance details via the form of payment option you have chosen. Should you have any technical questions regarding Nvoicepay and the payment process, please contact the Nvoicepay Payment Support Team at vendorsupport@nvoicepay.com.
