Phosphates are esters of phosophoric acid, $\ce{HO-P(O)(OH)2}$, when one or more its $\ce{OH}$ groups are replaced by (substituded) alkyloxy (alkoxy) groups. E.g. Ethyl phosphate, $\ce{CH3CH2-O-P(O)(OH)2}$. In biochemistry, where the ‘alkyls’ are very complicated, the names are based on the alcohols: ethanol phosphate.
A compendium of various IUPAC books info, IUPAC Gold Book, lacks ‘phosphoryl’ term, however, for ‘phosphorylation’, states:
phosphorylation
A process (catalysed by enzymes) involving the transfer of a phosphate group from a donor to a suitable acceptor; in general, an ester linkage is formed (…)
See, not ‘phosphoryl’, but ‘phosphate’ group.
Phosphoryl is very different group. Cite from IUPAC Nomenclature of organic chemistry, preferred names (2013):
P-67.1.4.1.1.2 Fundamental acyl groups for substituent derived from mononuclear noncarbon oxoacids
(…)
$\ce{-P(O)<}$
phosphoryl
It's the same in inorganic chemistry. E.g. phosphoryl chloride, $\ce{POCl3}$. Cite from IUPAC Nomenclature of Inorganic chemistry, 2005:
Table III, Suffixes and endings
(…)
oryl
Ending of prefixes for substituent groups formed by removing all hydroxy groups from ‘oric’ acids, e.g. phosphoryl, P(O), from phosphoric acid.
I honestly don't know why the process of introducing the phosphate group is called phosphorylation. I guess is sounded much better than e.g. ‘phosphatization’ to the term designer, and analogous to e.g. 576
‘methylation’, but he/she did not realize, that ‘phosphoryl’ already has a (different) meaning. Btw, the $\ce{-P(O)(OH)2}$ group is ‘phosphono’ group, see e.g. this answer or this question.
UPDATE
… and the (di)anionic form of the phosphono group is named phosphonato group.

There's also biochemistry related document[1], effectively discouraging the use of “phosphoryl” for phosphate group names of biochemicals:
Phosphoric esters, $\ce{RO-PO(OH)2}$, are named as O-substituted phosphoric acids or as substituted alcohols (Table I). Thus, choline O-(dihydrogen phosphate) and O-phosphonocholine are both appropriate names. The latter may be contracted to phosphocholine, but not changed to phosphorylcholine; “phosphoryl” is defined as OP and requires, if used, the naming of all three groups attached to the phosphorus atom. However, “phosphoryl” is retained in derived terms such as the names of enzymes (e.g., phosphorylase) or of processes (e.g., phosphorylation).
(…)
Table I (I won't reproduce it for technical reasons), lists many examples of (1) phosphate names, (2) O-phospho/phospho names, (3) systematic names (the first two types marked as recommended for biochemical usage), and (4) abbreviations. No name uses “phosphoryl”; some examples:
*
1. D-Fructose 1,2-bis(phosphate)
2. 1,6-Di-O-phosphono-D-fructose;
1,6-Bis(phospho)-D-fructose
3. D-Fructofuranose 1,6-bis(dihydrogen phosphate)
4. Fructose-1,6-P2
