Employee expense cards in place of out-of-pocket claims

Out-of-pocket claims are slow for everyone. The employee waits to be reimbursed, the approver signs off a stack of receipts weeks after the spend, and finance keys the lot into the ledger.

Employee expense cards take the waiting out.

With Fyorin, each employee who needs to spend gets a card with rules set by finance. Payments are visible as they happen, and every transaction posts to your ERP. It is the core of Fyorin’s business expense cards.

A virtual card, straight away

Create a virtual card in GBP, EUR or USD in under a minute. Virtual cards cost nothing to issue or use and are valid for up to 3 years.

A physical card for the road

Order a physical card for travel and in-person spend. Physical cards are valid for up to 5 years and generally carry a creation fee, a delivery charge and a monthly maintenance fee.

Prepaid or business debit card

Run each card as prepaid, with a balance guaranteed to it, or as a business debit card with a limit on the linked account.

Spending limits by role, from €5,000 to over €200,000

Each employee card gets a real-time spending limit set for the role. Default limits start at €5,000 and can go over €200,000, so a field engineer and a regional director can each hold a card that fits the job.

Approvals that follow your structure

Approval permissions can be value-based and cross-entity, and approvers can sign off on mobile. Multi-level user permissions define who can perform which actions, and approvers need no ERP licence in each entity to sign off.

Controls that match how people spend

  • Merchant controls, so a card works where it should
  • Geography controls for teams that travel or stay local
  • Time windows for spend tied to an event or a trip
  • Prepaid or debit mode, chosen per card

Where the budget is fixed, use prepaid cards for employees.

How do employee expense cards collect receipts?

Employees add receipts and invoices on the go, so the evidence is captured when the money is spent. If a receipt is missing, you can block the card instantly.

With one claim, one budget, finance reviews only where needed.

  1. Name a claim. A sales trip, a site visit or a client event.

  2. Set its coverage period. The dates the claim covers.

  3. Link a card. Everything spent on it is added to the claim automatically.

  4. Let it route. The claim goes for approval to the person who should see it.

Cards in a minute, limits by role, receipts as people spend.

What happens to an employee’s card when they leave?

Fyorin cards outlive the employee, so there is nothing to reissue when someone leaves or changes role. Revoke or reissue access instantly and the card carries on with its next holder.

When this happensCards that belong to the cardholderFyorin company expense cards
Someone leaves The card is cancelled and a new one ordered for the next person Access is revoked instantly and the card stays
A role changes A new card for the new role Access is reissued to the person in the role
Subscriptions on the card Every vendor needs new payment details Vendors keep charging the same card

Subscriptions are the clearest case, and virtual cards for business show how one card per vendor keeps them running.

VAT recharging and ERP sync with NetSuite or Xero

Map VAT, entities and countries once, and employee card costs are recharged across entities the moment they are submitted. Card transactions then post and reconcile in NetSuite, Xero or another ERP through a native two-way sync. Procurement and PO approval stay in the ERP.
