Business Expense Cards
Business expense cards let you issue physical or virtual cards to employees, set spending limits by person or category, and pull all receipts into one place, without the lag of reimbursements or the risk of a shared company card. The choice comes down to how much control you want before the money leaves, and how much of the reconciliation you want done for you afterwards.
