What is Mail-to-Pay?
Mail-to-Pay is part of amnis Payment AI and allows you to create payments directly from emails.
Instead of uploading invoices manually, you can email an invoice attachment to your dedicated Mail-to-Pay email address.
amnis automatically processes the invoice and prepares a payment draft that you can review and approve in the platform.
This helps teams turn incoming invoice emails into ready-to-review payments with minimal manual work - without needing to log in to initiate the process.
How does Mail-to-Pay work?
The workflow is simple:
Send an email with an invoice attachment to your unique Mail-to-Pay email address
amnis automatically extracts the payment information
A payment draft is created in amnis
You review and, if needed, edit the data
You approve the payment
AI helps prepare the payment, but you remain fully in control of approving it.
Is Mail-to-Pay included in all subscription plans?

What happens after I send the email?
Once your email is received, payment details are extracted, and a payment draft is created in amnis.
You and relevant approvers will receive an email update about the payment draft and its status.

This ensures both flexibility and control over payment creation.
