Expense Mate

Expense Mate is a platform that aims to lower business travel costs by changing how employees think about spending. It gives each traveller a budget and rewards them when they come in under it. The vendor says the approach pushes people to treat company money like their own.

What Expense Mate offers

• Smart custom budgets: set from live pricing together with the company's travel policy.
• Savings rewards: employees receive a share of the saving when they beat the budget.
• Policy alignment: budgets follow the rules the company already uses for travel.
• Cost reduction: the vendor claims cuts of up to 30 per cent.

Who it works with
