To date, over four million doxo users, across more than 90% of US zip codes, have paid bills through the doxo payment network. As more consumers in large cities, small towns, and rural areas continue to participate, doxo’s Directory has expanded by over 25% over the past year, with payment activity across more than 45 different service categories.

“Every single household in the country has a unique mix of billers, and typically half of these are local. By empowering our users to continually suggest the providers and services they need to pay, the doxo Directory continues its rapid expansion. With local biller coverage that is every bit as comprehensive as our national biller coverage, doxo ensures every household can pay every bill, addressing the needs of consumers and billers that are often overlooked by traditional enterprise software and payment networks,” said Steve Shivers, doxo Co-founder and CEO. “As pleased as we are with reaching this milestone of 75,000, we know we’re still just getting started in our mission to enable simple, secure payments to every biller – ultimately covering hundreds of thousands of national and local service providers – across the country.”
