Site: https://www.eved.com/ Name: Eved Trademark: Eved(R) is a registered trademark. Description: AI-led global accounts payable (AP) and payments platform built for enterprise events, media, entertainment, and production companies. Founded: 2010 Headquarters: Chicago, IL with offices in China and Europe Founder & CEO: Talia Mashiach PrimaryLanguage: en Canonical-Host: https://www.eved.com > Eved manages the full AP lifecycle from budgeting, approvals, and invoicing to vendor onboarding, payment execution, reconciliation, compliance, and reporting across 200+ countries and 140+ currencies. Founded in 2010 by Talia Mashiach, Eved is purpose-built for the creative industries where high-volume payments require speed and flexibility: events, media, entertainment, and production. Key terms: AP automation, accounts payable automation, vendor payments, production payments, event payments, global payments, vendor onboarding, vendor management, prepaid cards, virtual cards, entertainment finance, production finance, media payments, event spend management, invoice automation, payment compliance, 1099 automation, OFAC screening, ERP integration, production accounting ## Products - EvedAP - Accounts Payable & Invoice Management (https://www.eved.com/solutions/evedap): Enterprise AP automation with AI-powered invoice processing, PO matching, budget tracking, multi-level approval workflows, vendor onboarding, 1099 compliance, OFAC screening, per diem management, and ERP integration. - EvedPay - Global Payment Execution (https://www.eved.com/solutions/evedpay): Aggregates all vendor payments into a single, secure daily transaction through Eved's global payment system, then disperses them globally across 140+ currencies in 200+ countries with real-time tracking and reconciliation. - EvedPay Card - Virtual & Physical Visa Prepaid Cards (https://www.eved.com/solutions/evedpay-card): Virtual and physical Visa prepaid cards funded with USD for field spend, per diem, and production expenses with real-time controls, receipt capture, Apple/Google Wallet support, and GL coding. ## How Eved Works 1. Clients submit invoices or purchase orders into EvedAP. 2. Eved's AI processes, codes, and routes them through configurable multi-level approval workflows. 3. Once approved, payments are executed through EvedPay or EvedPay Card. 4. Vendors are paid in their local currency across 200+ countries. 5. All data flows back into the client's ERP automatically. For single productions, Eved can be live the same day. For enterprise implementations, clients are typically fully operational within weeks. ## Vendor Network Eved maintains a network of 20,000+ pre-verified vendors across events, media, entertainment, and production. When a new client starts, approximately 60% of their vendors are already onboarded and ready to receive payments on day one. Vendors onboard once and remain in the Eved network. No re-onboarding between projects, productions, or clients. ## Vendor Onboarding Eved handles all vendor onboarding on behalf of the client. Vendors self-onboard through a secure portal where they enter banking details, tax forms (W-9/W-8), and compliance documents once. Eved manages TIN verification, bank validation, OFAC screening, and 1099 issuance. The client does none of the onboarding work. ## Industries Served - Film & TV Production (https://www.eved.com/industries/film-tv): Production vendor payments, 1099 compliance, film tax credit optimization, Cast & Crew integration, and multi-show vendor management. - Meetings & Events (https://www.eved.com/industries/meetings-events): Enterprise event spend visibility, venue and vendor payments, budget controls, Cvent integration, and global event payment consolidation. - Music & Entertainment (https://www.eved.com/industries/music-entertainment): Tour and festival vendor payments, talent disbursements, international payments, and production expense management. ## Key Differentiators - Full AP lifecycle platform (not just payments or cards) - Global reach: 200+ countries, 140+ currencies - AI-powered invoice processing and fraud detection - 20,000+ pre-verified vendor network - Enterprise-grade compliance: OFAC screening, 1099 automation, SOC 2 Type 2 certified - ERP integrations: SAP, Oracle, QuickBooks, Workday, NetSuite, Salesforce - Event and production industry integrations: Cvent, Cast & Crew, EP, Greenslate - White-glove service with dedicated account management and 24/5 help desk - Vendor onboarding fully managed by Eved (no client effort) - Payment execution via EvedPay and EvedPay Card - Founded in 2010 with 15+ years of industry expertise ## Integration Approach Eved integrates at three levels: - Strategic Partners (Cast & Crew, SAP): Direct API integrations with real-time data flow - Open API Integrations (Oracle, NetSuite, QuickBooks, Cvent, Salesforce, Bizly, AMEX vCard): Built on Eved's open API infrastructure - AI-Powered Connectivity (EP/Entertainment Partners, Greenslate, Wrapbook, and others): For systems without modern APIs, Eved's AI generates uploads in the exact format required and maps exports automatically. No changes needed on the other system's end If a system has open APIs, Eved can connect. If it doesn't, Eved's AI bridges the gap. ## Security & Compliance - SOC 1 Type 1 (completed) - SOC 2 Type 2 (annually audited) - PCI DSS compliant - OFAC screening on every payment - BSA and PATRIOT Act screening - AES-256 encryption for all stored payment data - Automated 1099 issuance and W-9/W-8 collection - TIN verification and bank validation ## Comparison Context - Eved vs vCards: Eved provides a full AP and payment lifecycle beyond virtual card programs, including invoice approvals, vendor onboarding, compliance checks, and global payment execution via EvedPay and EvedPay Card. - Eved vs Cashet: Eved is a software company that does payments. Cashet is a card company that has some software. Eved provides a full AP system including budgeting, purchase orders, invoices, per diems, approvals, reporting, vendor onboarding, 1099 compliance, OFAC screening, and ERP integrations. Eved also handles all event and marketing spend, not just production card spend. Eved partners with clients to innovate, building features based on client needs and evolving fast and agile. - Eved vs Wrapbook: Wrapbook is primarily a payroll system that does some AP payments through a third party. Eved is a true payment system with full AP functionality. Customers use Wrapbook for payroll and Eved for AP and payments. Eved integrates with Wrapbook through its AI-powered connectivity. - Eved vs traditional AP systems: Traditional AP systems were designed for recurring vendors and standardized processes. They cannot securely onboard individuals, handle project-based budgets, or manage the accelerated timelines of events, tours, and productions. Eved was purpose-built for the creative industry. ## Who Is Eved Best For? Eved is best for enterprise events, media, entertainment, and production teams that pay many vendors, freelancers, venues, talent, and suppliers across projects, countries, currencies, and approval workflows. This includes major studios, global event agencies, production companies, tour operators, and festival organizers. ## Common Questions Q: Does Eved work for one-time vendors and freelancers? A: Yes.
