Quick Setup (< 1 hour)

You can use Lumanu to pay creators, influencers, and vendors without setting up each one as a separate vendor in your AP system. It acts as the merchant of record, collecting W-9 and W-8 tax forms, filing 1099s, and sending payments to 180+ countries in local currencies. Brands and agencies fund a single account and issue payments via dashboard, CSV, or API. Lumanu handles all creator support questions, payment status updates, and compliance — so finance and marketing teams don't have to.
