A corporate card is a credit or debit card issued by a company to employees for business expenses. Rather than paying out of pocket and seeking reimbursement, the employee charges expenses directly to the card. Zoho Expense connects to corporate card providers to automatically import transactions, eliminating manual data entry.
Admins can add corporate cards to Zoho Expense and assign them to specific employees. Once connected, card transactions feed into the system at regular intervals. Employees receive notifications to review and categorise new transactions, attach receipts, and add them to expense reports. Unmatched transactions remain flagged until actioned.
Corporate card expenses do not require employee reimbursement since the company pays the card bill directly. Zoho Expense tracks these separately from personal card or out-of-pocket expenses, giving finance teams a clear view of each payment type and ensuring the correct reconciliation path is followed for each.
Zoho Expense supports integration with major corporate card networks and can also accept statement imports in standard CSV or OFX formats from banks that do not offer a direct API connection. Check the Zoho Expense integrations page for the current list of supported providers.
The employee can flag the transaction as disputed in Zoho Expense. This marks it for review by the finance team, who can investigate with the card provider. The disputed transaction is excluded from expense reports until the dispute is resolved.
