To build more efficient systems and processes that could support the company’s growth, Pigment identified the need for a centralised spend management solution.

As an international company with offices in France, the UK, and the United States, Pigment needed an all-in-one tool that could be used globally. After thorough research and comparison, Spendesk stood out as the obvious choice, offering both the required features and global capabilities.

Pigment’s challenges

Before implementing Spendesk, Pigment faced several challenges in managing company spend.

The company relied on manual processes, with payments made individually through Revolut and receipts sent by email. This approach was inefficient and offered limited control, making it difficult to track and manage expenses effectively. As the company grew, the need for a more streamlined and centralised spend management solution became clear.

A transformed spend management process

Spendesk transformed Pigment’s spend management by providing a streamlined and efficient solution. With Spendesk, Pigment was able to centralise payment management, remove manual processes, and reduce the risk of missing receipts. The finance team gained greater control and visibility over spend, ensuring a smoother month-end close.

In addition, the ability to set spend limits and use virtual cards allowed Pigment to decentralise decision-making without losing control or oversight.
