Pleo business expense cards vs company credit cards
Take the stress out of business spending with expense cards from Pleo.
Visibility | Pleo cards See transactions in real-time – if something doesn’t look right, flag it immediately. | Company credit cards See transactions in a monthly statement – making it hard to spot problems in good time. |
---|---|---|
Control | Pleo cards Set individual spending limits for each card and easily adjust them if needed. | Company credit cards The card balance is the same as the account balance – which can mean unlimited access to funds. |
New hires | Pleo cards Issue virtual or physical cards to people immediately, so they can hit the ground running wherever they’re based. | Company credit cards Long application process (and lots of paperwork) to add someone to your account. |
Support | Pleo cards Proactive customer support, available via chat, email or phone. (Run by proper humans too.) | Company credit cards Long wait times for help, just when you need fast answers. |
The basics
A business expense card, often also called a prepaid business card is issued to someone who works for a company and needs a payment card for their work-related expenses. Instead of paying for these purchases with their own money, they use the card and then file a report to prove the cost was necessary for business reasons.
