Addressing Challenges in Corporate Expense Management

Historically, managing corporate card transactions posed significant hurdles for users. Traditional methods of reconciling transactions manually or relying on bank feeds proved time-consuming and error-prone, particularly at scale. However, untracked expenses contribute substantially to financial leakage within organizations, as noted by studies from the Association of Certified Fraud Examiners (ACFE). On average, businesses lose around 5% of their annual revenue to fraud, with a significant portion attributed to unmonitored or unverified expenses, impacting the bottom line and posing compliance risks.

Moreover, the manual reconciliation process, as revealed in a Deloitte survey, consumes an average of 27% of finance professionals' time, hindering strategic financial planning and analysis, thereby reducing overall productivity and efficiency.

With the launch of the Ampla Visa Corporate Card last year, we provided consumer brands with the spend power they needed to fuel growth while earning cash back. The launch of our expense management feature makes our card offering even more competitive, providing operators with the limits and scale they need, and CFOs and accounting teams the tools necessary to save time closing the books. 

Key Features Alleviating Expense Management Challenges

Review and Categorization

Our intuitive platform allows users to promptly review and categorize transactions, mitigating the risk of untracked expenses. Users can approve automated categorization or make necessary adjustments, ensuring accurate financial records and minimizing the chance of fraudulent or erroneous expenditures.

Seamless Synchronization

Synchronizing categorized transactions with accounting software significantly reduces the time spent on manual reconciliation. According to Aberdeen Group, companies automating expense management reduce expense reporting time by 42%, resulting in substantial cost savings and enhanced efficiency.

Effortless Receipt Management

Our platform simplifies receipt management, enabling seamless receipt uploads, aiding compliance, and accelerating the reconciliation process, thereby saving valuable time and effort.

User Role Customization

Individual cardholders have access to their personal card transactions within the platform, allowing categorization, receipt uploads, and transaction editing. Meanwhile, administrators and owners possess broader permissions, ensuring greater oversight and compliance within the organization.

This latest feature strengthens our competitive position in the corporate card market. By integrating expense management as a value-added benefit, we address crucial pain points for businesses, significantly enhancing our corporate card's appeal and functionality. This feature, coupled with our leading 1.5% cash back and higher limits (up to 11x the national average) make the Ampla Visa Corporate Card a standout among the competition.
