How Pennylane and Melio stay secure with Well

Well connects to Pennylane through its MCP server, which issues short-lived access tokens via Dynamic Client Registration. Well never holds a long-lived Pennylane secret; the server refreshes its own tokens on each session. Well processes records per the storage region configured for your workspace; only fields strictly required by the write surface are ferried across regions.

Frequently asked questions about Pennylane and Melio on Well

01What Pennylane data does Well pull into Melio?
Pennylane streams supplier and customer invoices, contacts, and VAT detail read over Pennylane's MCP server to Well over its MCP server. After Well resolves the counterparty and assigns a confidence score, the matched record posts to Melio as bills via email-in at @invoicesmelio.com, with vendor, amount, and due date populated by Smart Bill Capture, with the Pennylane event ID preserved on the entry for audit.
02How often does Pennylane data sync to Melio?
Pennylane pushes events to Well over its MCP server, so most records land within seconds of the underlying action. Each event is matched immediately and reaches Melio within a confidence window: above 85% it posts, 55-85% queues for review, below 55% is refused.
03How does Well match Pennylane records to entries in Melio?
Well scores every candidate match between Pennylane records and existing Melio entries on counterparty name, amount, date proximity, currency, and reference. Above 85% the record links to the historical entry and Melio updates; between 55% and 85% the candidates are queued for sign-off; below 55% the record stays open with the candidate list available.
04Does Well handle multi-currency records between Pennylane and Melio?
Pennylane carries the original transaction currency on every record, but Melio ledgers in a single base; Well preserves the source currency, attaches the FX rate at the timestamp of the event, and the converted figure and the source amount both travel on the document Well forwards to Melio, so both sides of the trade are visible when you post.
05How does Well prevent duplicates when posting Pennylane records to Melio?
Pennylane sends each event with a stable resource ID that Well tracks against the Melio ledger. Webhook replays (which Pennylane can issue for delivery retries) are recognised by ID and either skipped or used to update the existing Melio entry. Distinct records that look similar are caught by Well before posting, with the candidates surfaced in the review queue when confidence is ambiguous.
06How does Well authenticate with Pennylane and Melio?
Pennylane's MCP server handles authorisation directly; Well receives an access token through Dynamic Client Registration and never sees raw user credentials. For the delivery side, Well forwards the reconciled document to your Melio email-in address once it clears the matching threshold; Melio creates the draft record from it and you confirm and post it. Well holds no write credential to Melio. Tokens are encrypted at rest and in transit under TLS 1.3. Pennylane hosts in the EU and Melio hosts outside the EU; Well processes records per the storage region configured for your workspace.
