Submit an expense claim (Requesters or Account Owners).

Before You Submit an Expense Claim

Activate the Expense Module

This section is for Account Owners.

To allow your employees to submit expense claims, ensure that the Expense module is enabled. Follow these steps:

  1. Go to Payment Methods.

  2. Toggle on the Expense Claim option.

Please note that expense claims must be submitted by the requester themselves, as it is not currently possible to submit a claim on behalf of another person.

Complete Your Bank Details

This section is for Requesters.

Before submitting an expense request, ensure your profile is complete and your bank details are added. Here's how:

  1. Click on your avatar in the bottom-left corner.

  2. Navigate to My Profile > Your Bank Info.

  3. Fill in your bank details to ensure timely and seamless reimbursement by your employer.

For security reasons, only the Account Owner can modify bank details once they are added. Additionally, bank information must match the wallet’s currency. For example, you cannot add US bank details to a EUR account.

Approval Policy and Expense Claims

This section is for Requesters.

Your expense claim will follow the approval policy associated with your profile. This can be viewed in the Personal Information section of your profile page. Depending on the policy, your request may be automatically validated or require approval based on the company’s approval scheme.
