Sabeer Nelli on How Payment Automation is Helping SMBs Compete with Larger Enterprises

Fintech leader explains how payment automation tools are enabling small and mid-sized businesses to manage payments as efficiently as large corporations.

TYLER, TX, USA – January 1, 2026 – Sabeer Nelli, CEO of Zil Money, said today that payment automation solutions are playing a critical role in helping small and mid-sized businesses (SMBs) compete with larger enterprises by providing the same speed, efficiency, and operational control over their financial processes.

Sabeer explained that, traditionally, SMBs have been at a disadvantage when it comes to managing payments. Large corporations have the resources to automate their payment workflows, integrate various financial systems, and leverage enterprise-grade tools. In contrast, SMBs often rely on fragmented, manual payment systems that slow down cash flow, create unnecessary errors, and waste valuable time.

However, with the rise of advanced fintech tools, payment automation is leveling the playing field. Solutions like those offered by Zil Money allow SMBs to automate payment approvals, process invoices instantly, and manage payments across multiple platforms – from ACH to virtual cards – without needing to hire additional finance staff or invest in costly software.

According to Sabeer Nelli, “payment automation is no longer a luxury for large businesses; it’s essential for SMBs to stay competitive.” “Today, small businesses are expected to operate at the same speed as their larger counterparts. Automation is allowing them to streamline their financial operations and reduce the manual burden that has traditionally held them back.”

The benefits of payment automation for SMBs are clear. By automating payment workflows, businesses can eliminate the risk of late payments, improve cash flow management, and reduce the administrative costs associated with manual transaction processing. Additionally, automated systems provide more visibility into the financial operations of a business, allowing owners and decision-makers to make data-driven decisions more quickly.

Sabeer believes the role of payment automation in SMBs will only continue to expand. As more businesses adopt digital payment platforms and automated financial solutions, the line between SMBs and large corporations will continue to blur, with small businesses gaining access to the same level of efficiency and operational control.
