Treasury management fintech company Embat announced on June 16 it has partnered with Sage to make its treasury management technology available to Sage Intacct customers in the UK, giving finance teams a way to connect ERP and banking data for real-time cash visibility, reconciliation, payments, and forecasting.
Embat said it is the first treasury management provider currently available to Sage Intacct customers. Sage Intacct Marketplace lists Embat—Treasury Management as a “intelligent treasury management platform” under Banking & Treasury Management for the UK.
The partnership is designed for midmarket businesses that have outgrown basic accounting tools and need stronger financial management, treasury, and accounting capabilities without replacing their core finance system. Embat said Sedna and Together Group are among the first UK companies to integrate its technology through the Sage partnership.
“UK midmarket finance teams are under pressure to move faster, deliver sharper insights, and do more with fewer resources,” said Theo Wasserberg, Head of UK & Ireland at Embat. “This integration gives Sage’s customers immediate access to treasury automation and intelligence that was once available only to large enterprises.”
Analysis
What this means: Treasury automation is developing in the midmarket ERP ecosystem. Embat’s Sage Intacct integration brings cash visibility, reconciliation, forecasting, and payments closer to the finance system used by growing UK businesses. The move shows how treasury capabilities are becoming part of the core finance platform conversation, not only a specialist enterprise add-on.

Treasury Now Closer to Core Finance
The integration connects Sage Intacct with Embat’s treasury platform to automate bank reconciliation, cash flow forecasting, accounting, and payment workflows.
Embat’s Sage Intacct listing page describes the product as a treasury and finance stack that combines Sage Intacct ERP data with real-time cash flow automation and control. It says customers can connect to more than 15,000 banks and financial products, manage treasury based on invoices or bank feeds, make payments for supplier invoices, automate accounting and reconciliation, and gain cash flow visibility without relying on Excel.
Further, Embat supports multi-entity structures, multi-currency operations, custom Sage dimensions, intelligent transaction categorization, cash flow forecasting, centralized payments execution, and audit-ready traceability. Embat’s TellMe AI agent executes inside treasury processes, including reconciliation, categorization, forecasting, and cash operations.
For Sage Intacct customers, the integration addresses a common finance gap. ERP and accounting systems can hold invoice, ledger, and entity-level data, while banks hold cash movements and balances. Treasury teams often bridge those worlds manually through spreadsheets, file uploads, and bank portals. Embat’s pitch is the integration brings those data flows into a single treasury operating layer.
Analysis
What this means: AI gains value when it executes inside finance workflows. Embat’s TellMe agent is positioned around transaction categorization, reconciliation, forecasting, and cash operations tied to Sage data and banking information. For finance transformation teams, the practical takeaway is AI in treasury needs operational context, audit trails, and ERP connectivity before it can reduce manual work reliably.
Partners Support UK Deployment
The announcement also places implementation partners around the integration.
Businesses can deploy Embat through Sage ecosystem partners including Percipient and Eaton Square. Percipient’s Sales Director Laurie Stanwick said the addition gives clients a way to automate manual workflows, achieve real-time cash visibility, and modernize treasury operations without “the usual integration headaches.”
Per Embat, the Sage Intacct implementation uses native integration through partner SenderID, does not require a Sage web services developer license, and requires Platform Services to enable webhooks. The integration is approved for the UK and supports Sage Intacct cloud, multi-entity, multi-currency, and custom dimensions.
That deployment detail matters because midmarket finance teams often lack the implementation capacity of enterprise treasury departments. A treasury platform that can be deployed through an existing Sage partner ecosystem may reduce adoption friction for companies that need better cash control but are not ready for a full enterprise treasury transformation.
Analysis
What this means: Partner ecosystems shape finance modernization speed. Embat’s deployment through Sage ecosystem partners such as Percipient and Eaton Square gives midmarket customers a lower-friction path to treasury automation. As such, adoption will depend not only on product capability but also on whether customers can implement the tool through partners they already trust.

Series B Funding Frames UK Expansion
The Sage partnership follows Embat’s €30 million (approximately $34.7 million) Series B funding round, led by Cathay Capital, with participation from existing investors including Creandum, Samaipata, 4Founders, and Venture Friends. Cathay Capital said the round brought Embat’s total funding since 2021 to more than €50 million (approximately $57.9 million) and would support international expansion, team growth, and its global go-to-market strategy.
Per Cathay Capital, Embat has offices in London, Madrid, Berlin, and Munich, and serves more than 400 corporate clients. The funding announcement positioned the UK and Ireland as a priority market for the company’s next stage of growth.
The Sage partnership fits that strategy. It gives Embat access to a defined base of Sage Intacct customers and puts its treasury tools into a marketplace environment where finance teams are already looking for adjacent applications to extend the core ERP.
For Sage, the partnership adds a treasury management option to a finance platform already used by growing companies with advanced accounting requirements. Lisa Mullen, Head of Tech Partnerships at Sage UKI, said Sage is focused on helping businesses work more efficiently and make confident financial decisions, and that Embat gives Sage Intacct customers access to treasury technology that can simplify operations and improve visibility.
