| Pricing | Base: starting at $7 per report, unlimited users (includes Concur Expense) · free tier: No free version; free trial available (per Capterra) | $0 user/month (Essentials); first paid tier $12 user/month · free tier: Essentials at $0 user/month — global card acceptance and 1 local card program, AI custom rules, up to two entities (1 global entity), accounting integrations, local currency wires, free travel booking, real-time reporting, Brex API access, bill pay and reimbursements |
| Pricing model | Subscription priced per expense report, with volume-tiered rates based on monthly commitment | Subscription (per user/month, freemium entry tier; Enterprise custom) |
| Best for | Enterprises and upper-mid-market firms with heavy business travel, multi-entity or multi-country operations, strict per-diem or government-contracting compliance requirements, an existing SAP or major-ERP footprint, and finance-ops headcount to run the configuration. | US-centric startups wanting a genuinely free card, expense and bill-pay stack, and mid-market finance teams (roughly 50-1,000 seats) that need policy enforcement, multi-entity US+international operations and ERP/HRIS syncs at $12 user/month. |
| Avoid if | You are a small business or startup wanting fast self-serve setup, you rank employee experience highly, you need transparent all-in pricing before engaging sales, or you cannot commit to a multi-year contract with defined termination terms. | You have heavy international card spend that cannot absorb an FX markup of up to 3%, a large population of occasional spenders (uniform-plan rule), a hard requirement for SSO and audit logs on a free-tier budget, or a procurement process needing fixed published pricing before engagement. |

A higher TOP SCORE means more of the evidence favours that platform on this methodology — it is not a recommendation, and it does not account for your specific requirements. Advertisers are never declared the winner of a comparison.
