In today’s rapidly evolving business environment, efficiency and control over expenses are more crucial than ever. This calls for strategies that not only empower employees but also align with the company’s financial goals. One powerful tool that achieves this harmony is a corporate credit card. Now, some might be scratching their heads, wondering, “A corporate credit card? Isn’t that just another thing to manage?” But let’s dive into the world of corporate credit cards and see why they’re not just beneficial but essential. 

Imagine a startup embarking on its first business adventure, pinching pennies, and counting every expense. Or picture a multinational giant with thousands of transactions flying around the globe every day. Both organizations need something to bring order to the chaos, something to replace the proverbial manila envelope filled with paper receipts.

That’s where the corporate credit card comes in, a beacon of simplicity for businesses at all levels.

Business travel has changed dramatically over the past few years. How often, where, and when people travel for work has been upended due to work-from-home opportunities and flexible schedules. Deloitte produced a travel study earlier this year which predicted, “full recovery to 2019 spend volume appears likely by late 2024 or early 2025, adjusting for lost growth and inflation indicates that in real terms, corporate travel will likely be smaller than it was prior to the pandemic.”

As companies adjust to this new normal and possibly look to ramp up employee travel in the near future, they need innovative solutions for controlling their employee’s travel spend. Luckily, Expensify customers can look to the Expensify Card to simplify the entire process of managing spend and receipts before, during, and after a trip. Let’s take a look at all the ways the Expensify Card can assist your team during their next business trip.
