Set custom limits based on team or title

Every team member needs access to company funds, but they also need clear rules. Spendesk lets you set limits for all employees, plus custom rules for specific cases. And if the rules don’t fit, employees can request a top-up anytime, from anywhere.

Automate bookkeeping

Create rules and let AI suggest how to categorise your expenses, based on thousands of past transactions and patterns. Save time and close your books much faster.

When you’re a fast-scaling company, lots of people have requests, lots of people need funds, lots of people need to expense or need to spend. Suddenly, you lose efficiency, you lose control, and you have a lack of visibility. Spendesk keeps us in control of things.
