So my org uses BILL/Bill+Spend (aka Divvy) for our company credit cards.

Because of ease of use +setup, more nonprofits have been coming onto the BILL platform.

I just learned that BILL is quietly rolling out Persona (a Palantir company) within BILL/Bill+Spend to force users to use biometric and ID verification to update or change user info. Account admins can't revert back to MFA and users are being locked out of their access.

There was zero notification to acct admins and I only know this because I'm on a listserv with other nonprofit finance teams.

This paired with that nonprofit Exec Memo from September 2025 makes me wave all the red flags in the world for the nonprofit sector.

I've dropped a rather crackpot-sounding note to the National Council on Nonprofits and a more rational note to my state association of nonprofits.

@DeliaChristina any way to notify the org employees without taking the fall yourself?

@vex

there's no issue of me taking the fall for anything.

I'm taking this up with my external accounting/finance team. They're going to need to find a plan B for this.

Once upon a time the non-profit term was encompassing the whole organization. But once Sauron's minions come for an org, serving on its board has become a highly lucrative venture. Look-up the remuneration of board members from before the tech-nazi’ rise with that of today.
