Key features include approval process control, invoice management, receipt management and spend control. Expend’s custom Mastercards for employees help businesses to keep track of individual employees’ expenses and manage credit card limits and overdraft charges. Businesses can also connect these cards to Expend’s application for iOS and Android devices, decide individual limits and budgets and sort account numbers for recurring payments. Expend offers a way for staff to make essential purchases without the need for a credit card, while allowing admins full oversight and control through a cloud dashboard. Advanced automation algorithms manage the entire expenses process from the initial transaction (on the Expend prepaid MasterCard) through to the accounting software entry. Expend's mobile app allows employees to add further details, such as receipts, and submit completed reports in seconds. Services are offered on a monthly subscription basis that includes support via phone, email, product guides and live chat. > > Verdict: Rated **4.9/5** by 9 users.
