The Expense reimbursement feature is available by default in the Smart, Premium, Business and Enterprise plans. Starting from 01/10, these features are also available for those who switch to Essential plan according to the new pricing (more details here).
Expense reimbursement allows team members to submit reimbursements for any company expenses paid with personal funds. Expense reimbursement requests can be approved by Owners, Admins, and Managers with the transfer permissions activated.
What do I need for submitting an Expense reimbursement request?
-
Receipt of the expense
💡 Digital receipts that are uploaded to Qonto have the same legal value as their paper counterpart (probative value). This means your organization no longer needs to keep the paper receipt.
-
Expense amount
💡 The amount and VAT should get filled out automatically thanks to our OCR technology (which stands for Optical Character Recognition). You can also manually add or edit the amount.
-
Expense description: give more context to your Admin or Manager on your expense
-
IBAN: to get your reimbursement, you will need to fill out your IBAN of your personal bank account. You can add your IBAN directly when making a request or fill it out in your personal profile.
💡 IBAN is stored in the profile and can be added/updated directly in your profile.
