Juggling paper receipts, chasing down employees for submissions, and waiting for reimbursements–traditional expense management can be a time-consuming nightmare for both employees and finance teams. 

But what if there was a modern solution that could streamline the entire process, boost security, and free up valuable time?

Enter virtual cards. These digital payment tools are revolutionizing expense management by offering a faster, simpler, and more secure way to handle business spending. 

The Efficiency Edge Of Virtual Cards

Virtual cards offer a multitude of benefits that translate into a smoother, more efficient expense management experience. Here’s how: 

Goodbye, Manual Reports

Wave goodbye to tedious data entry and manual reports. Virtual cards allow for real-time expense tracking, providing a clear picture of spending and enabling faster reimbursements, keeping employees happy and cash flow healthy. 

Real-Time Tracking and Reimbursements

Employees can say goodbye to waiting for reimbursements. Virtual cards allow for real-time expense tracking, providing a clear picture of spending and enabling faster reimbursements, keeping employees happy and cash flow healthy. 

Enhanced Security

Virtual cards come with built-in security features that traditional cards simply can’t match. Many virtual cards are single-use, minimizing the risk of fraud when the card details are compromised. Additionally, spending limits and merchant category restrictions can be set, ensuring compliance with company policies and preventing unauthorized purchases. 

“For middle market companies, I generally see around 15-20% in total process cost savings when payments shift from manual to automated through virtual card adoption. So a company issuing 5,000 vendor payments a year could potentially save $40,000 to $60,000 or more annually. The savings quickly justify the investment in virtual card technology.”
