Orla vs Tipalti: neither counts users, and only one fits a company of three
Tipalti's payables plans start at $99 a month with unlimited users, then add transaction pricing, modules and an implementation. Orla does not count seats either, and its whole price is on one page.
Tipalti's prices below were read on its own pricing page on 26 September 2026.

The arithmetic
What the price is made of
A starting price and a whole price are different numbers.
Fair is fair
Where Tipalti is stronger
A comparison you can trust has to be able to say this.
- Reach on its own rails: 200+ countries and territories, with currency accounts and FX handled in the product. Orla pays from your connected bank or wallet.
- The supplier side: a self-service portal in 27 languages, W-9 and W-8 collection, and tax ID validation across 62 countries. On Orla a person keeps the contact card.
- Multi-entity accounting and the big ERPs: NetSuite, Sage Intacct, Microsoft Dynamics and SAP. Orla keeps one company per business space and hands the accountant a file.
- Mass Payments as a product of its own, and the Tipalti Card for paying bills with cash back.
If you have a finance team, an ERP and thousands of payees in a hundred countries, Tipalti is the right size of tool, and its price is the cost of that reach.
Where Orla is different
Priced for a company of three
If any of this is your company, the comparison decides itself.
- The whole price on one page: plans and packs with their prices, and no call to learn what next month costs.
- A company of one: a sole trader, a three-person studio, an agency with a dozen contractors, on a free plan with no card and no clock.
- Both rails in one book: a contractor paid in USDC, an exchange balance and a Safe, priced at the minute they moved and handed to the accountant with the bank.
- Bills that read themselves without trusting the email: the amount and due date come off the file, where to pay comes from the contact card.
- A rule and a batch of up to 200 rows on every plan, the batch checked on its total.
The short answer
Who should pick which
Two cases, and why there is no third.
There is no both case worth building: the two tools do the same job at different sizes of company.
Questions
The questions the table does not answer
Is Orla a Tipalti alternative for a small company?
Yes, that is the size it is built for: one person to a few dozen, with no finance person. Tipalti's pricing page starts at $99 a month with transaction pricing and modules on top and no free tier; Orla starts free, and the paid plans are priced for the company, not per seat.
Does Orla charge per transaction the way Tipalti does?
No. On payouts and bills Orla takes nothing: a payout leaves from your own bank or wallet and carries that rail's own cost, the bank's fee or the network's. Orla's own fee sits in three places: a crypto swap and a card top-up, each named on the screen before you confirm, and what an AI agent's wallet spends on its own.
Can Orla pay suppliers in 200 countries like Tipalti?
Orla has no rails of its own. It pays from a bank you connect as a payout rail (Revolut Business, Airwallex, Slash, Mercury), from PayPal Payouts, or from a wallet on EVM, TRON or Solana. Its reach is your bank's reach plus any chain it supports. Tipalti pays on its own rails to 200+ countries and territories.
Does Orla have a supplier portal?
No. A supplier sends a bill to the space's own email address, or you forward it or file it from a document; Orla reads the amount and the due date, and a person approves the draft. Bank details come from the contact card you keep, never from the email or the PDF.
Which one has a free plan?
Orla: no card, no clock, a ledger with statement imports, one card, a few invoices a month and the month's checklist. Tipalti's pricing page says it does not offer a free tier.
