Medius vs Tradeshift (2026): which should you pick?

Pick Medius if

• Fits if you run a finance team on one of the listed ERPs and approve a lot of invoices
• Works for firms that want fraud checks on invoices

Look elsewhere if

• Pricey if you can't see a price, as both plans are quoted by sales
• Too light for expense reports on its own, as expense management is an add-on at extra cost
• Tight if you have several entities, as AP Essentials covers 1 and AP 360 covers 3
• Watch out: Copilot and fraud detection are AP 360 only
• Skip it if your ERP isn't on its list of five

Pick Tradeshift if

• Fits if you run a large accounts payable team that needs e-invoicing compliance
• Works for companies that want suppliers on one invoicing network

Look elsewhere if

• Skip it if you need employee expense reports or receipt capture, as it handles neither
• Not for you if you want a quick sign-up, since rollout is a customization project
• Pricey if you hope to learn the cost up front, because no price is published
• Watch out: suppliers can be charged separately; the support centre has a Supplier Subscriptions topic, details not read

Medius

• No prices are published; both AP Essentials and AP 360 are quoted through sales.
• AP Essentials covers 1 entity and standard support; AP 360 covers 3 entities and adds Copilot and fraud detection.
• Expense management, procurement and payments are separate add-ons at additional cost.
• The site lists ERP connections to Microsoft Dynamics, Oracle NetSuite, Oracle Fusion, Oracle JDE and SAP S/4HANA.

Tradeshift

• No prices are published; the site asks visitors to request a demo or contact sales.
• It handles invoices and payables, not employee expense reports or receipt capture.
• The site says most customers need extensive customization, so rollout is a project rather than a sign-up.
• Suppliers can be charged separately: the support center lists a Supplier Subscriptions topic, details not read.
