Remember when you turned thirteen and all of a sudden you couldn’t stop growing? Your ankles peered awkwardly out from the bottom of your pants and your wrists got cold peeking out from the sleeves of that middle school hoodie. Well, that’s kind of what 2017 has looked like at Expensify, only less awkward and more exciting! We’re in the midst of a growth spurt, and we’re thrilled to share some numbers from the first half of the year.
Business travel might seem fun and glamorous on the surface, but road warriors know that the behind-the-scenes logistics involved in booking a business trip are just the opposite. Scheduling flights and hotels, collecting receipts, and trying to work on a flight when your neighbor is hogging the armrest are just a few of the hassles that get in the way of enjoying a business trip, not to mention the hundreds of emails that pile up while you’re out of the office.
If there’s one task as tedious as using spreadsheets to track expenses, it’s trying to find a parking spot when you’re running late for a meeting. SpotHero eliminates that problem by making it easy to reserve parking in advance, so we’ve teamed up so that you can expense your SpotHero reservations with the click of a button.
It’s been an exciting year at Expensify, with our international expansion in Europe and Australia, new features and integrations, countless new partners, and more. A lot has happened, but here are just some of the biggest highlights of 2016!

If you know anything about the Expensify team, you know that we’re travelers. Not only do we dedicate our lives to an app that simplifies business travel, but we can be found typing away from a warm beach on our yearly offshore or flying around the world for conferences. In the last six months, we’ve taken our global presence one step further by opening two shiny new offices in London and Melbourne.
What does this mean for you?
With offices on three continents, we can truly offer 24/7 support to our customers.

Here at Expensify, we’re always dreaming of ways to make expense reports more lovable, and that also means making receipts less hateable. Today, we’re thrilled to launch our first batch of receipt integrations – making sure you never forget your receipts again!
