Thryv Enhances Its Platform With Tap-to-Pay And Document Capabilities

Thryv Holdings Inc., a fintech credit card issuer and provider of small-business management software, has rolled out a suite of new apps for its platform, including tap-to-pay. The new features will enable small businesses to speed payments, streamline document management, and improve communications, Thryv says.

Users of Thryv’s platform can now accept tap-to-pay transactions initiated with a contactless card as well as with digital wallets on devices running Apple Inc.’s iOS or Google LLC’s Android operating systems. Small businesses will pay 2.6% plus 30 cents per transaction for each tap-to-pay transaction. In addition, Thryv has launched the ThryvPay Mobile Card Reader for customers in the United States.

Beyond adding tap-to-pay capabilities for in-person transactions, Thryv is rolling out “Signatures,” a document-management application that enables small businesses to view and upload commonly used agreements, proposals, contracts, and other items requiring signature via a dashboard, and send them to their Thryv customer relationship management (CRM) contacts for an e-Signature.

Signed documents are stored and can provide a centralized view of each customer. The Signatures app has a limit of five free signatures per month. Users can upgrade to up to 100 signatures for $49 a month, with a per-signature overage if that threshold is exceeded, Thryv said. Signatures is available in the U.S., Australia, and Canada.

Thryv said it has also added TeamChat to its platform. The app, which is integrated within the Thryv customer relationship management software, enables businesses to tag or mention any contact, payment, booking, or invoice. The annotation feature within the app enables employees to comment and add context to any photos shared, making it easier to share status and complete projects, Thryv said. Launched in November 2022, TeamChat services more than 850 accounts and 2,800 users.

“The new features and product updates are born out of our collaboration with customers to efficiently develop products that solve their real-world challenges,” Thryv’s chief product officer, Ryan Cantor, says in a prepared statement. “As consumer needs continuously evolve, small businesses are under pressure to transform quickly to keep up with the rapid pace of change without missing out on growth opportunities.”
