Spending smarter is easier than ever.

Create spend limits for things like stipends, travel, and procurement. Embedded policies are auto-enforced, giving employees confidence in every transaction.

Quickly enable and allocate spend.

Set up pre-built policies for common spend types like travel and stipends. Then assign them to individuals or teams for spending via card, ACH, check, wire, or reimbursement.

Spend limits- Enforce

Enforce your policy automatically.

Fine-tune rules and policies by role, vendor, and amount. Brex will auto-enforce them across Brex card, bill pay, travel platform, and reimbursements — giving you more control.

Simplify approvals with AI.

Don’t waste time reviewing every transaction, every month. Brex AI automatically approves expenses that are in-policy, and flags those that need a closer look.
