Does Telleroo integrate with Xero and QuickBooks?

Yes. Telleroo integrates directly with Xero and QuickBooks. Payment information syncs straight from your accounting software so there is no need to export files and re-upload them to a banking portal. Telleroo also connects to leading payroll software including Employment Hero, Staffology, SafeHR, FreshPay, and Buddy. New or updated payee details are flagged automatically before any payment goes out.

How many suppliers can I pay in a single batch?

You can pay up to 200 suppliers in a single payment batch via Telleroo's Xero and QuickBooks integrations. If your business needs to pay larger volumes, you can do this via CSV upload or through the Telleroo API, which supports thousands of payments at once. Both options give you full validation, approval workflows, and fraud prevention features.

How quickly can urgent supplier payments be made?

Urgent payments can reach a supplier's account in as little as 5 minutes using the UK Faster Payments System, which operates 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

Can Telleroo handle weekly, fortnightly, and monthly pay runs?

Yes. Telleroo is designed to handle multiple pay run schedules, so you can process weekly agency staff payments, fortnightly payroll, and monthly supplier settlements from the same platform. Each run is independent with its own approval flow and full audit trail.

Do I need to be an accountant to use Telleroo?

No. Telleroo is built for business owners and finance teams, not just accountants. You can connect your own Xero or QuickBooks account and start processing payments yourself. If your accountant manages your payments on your behalf, they can also access Telleroo as part of the same workflow, with approval stages that give you full visibility and control over what goes out.

The challenge.

Manual payments put your supplier relationships and cash flow at risk

Restaurants, cafes, pubs and hotels juggle large volumes of supplier invoices alongside weekly, fortnightly, and monthly employee pay runs. Doing this manually through online banking is slow, error-prone, and leaves you without the visibility you need to stay in control.

Late supplier payments halt orders

A late payment to a key supplier could put your orders on hold. That directly impacts your ability to meet customer demand and maintain service standards when it matters most.

Multiple pay run schedules are complex to manage

Paying permanent employees monthly, temp staff weekly, and zero-hours workers fortnightly through your bank is time-consuming and leaves too much room for mistakes at every step.

No payee verification on bank transfers

Manually entering or copying and pasting supplier bank details exposes you to errors and fraud. New or updated payees need checking before a payment is released, and most banking portals give you no help with this.

No visibility over outgoing payments

When everything is processed through online banking, it is hard to see what has gone out, what is pending, and what impact your payments are having on cash flow at any given moment.

Paying suppliers one by one is not sustainable

As your supplier base grows, manually processing each payment through your bank takes hours. At 50, 100, or 200 suppliers, the process becomes a serious drain on your finance team's time.

Urgent payments take too long

When a supplier needs paying immediately to release a delivery, processing it manually through your banking portal can take time you do not have. Speed matters in hospitality and your payment process needs to keep up.

The solution.

Pay hundreds of suppliers and staff in minutes. With full fraud checks and built-in approval flows.

Telleroo syncs payment data directly from your accounting or payroll software. No exporting files, no keying in bank details. Just check, approve, and fund.
