Candex
Provider Directory
Candex was founded in 2011 to solve the tail spend problem by removing complexity from purchasing and payments. They enable businesses to engage, collaborate, and exchange payments in a compliant way without setup in each other’s financial systems.
Candex removes thousands of provider records from financial systems while delivering control, speed, tax compliance, and visibility. They simplify how buyers and sellers trade goods and services by acting as the trading partner for both sides. Buyers authorize each order to Candex for the benefit of a specific seller, sellers invoice Candex, and Candex invoices the buyer after verifications and compliance scans before settling payment.
