Manage your spend on the road with Expensify
Ah, the life of a business traveler!
Hustling between connecting flights, bouncing between conferences, getting lost in rental car parking lots, booking an Uber (or Lyft!) just in time to make that client dinner downtown. It’s a beautiful dance to some, and controlled chaos to others.
But whether you’re a road warrior or an airline loyalist, a points hound or a “convenience-at-all-costs” type, the last thing you probably want to think about on a business trip is how to get paid back for all the money you’re spending.
So, why not make it easy on yourself and find a tool that works automatically in the background, catching all those expenses that might otherwise fall through the cracks? That’s where Expensify’s receipt scanning app comes in.
