### "Don't do it"

April 10, 2026

1.0

Payhawk has been a major disappointment for us. During the sales process, the platform was presented as being “almost free,” while the actual costs turned out to be nearly €3,000 per month. In hindsight, only part of the pricing and contractual obligations were disclosed transparently. They managed to convince our controller with an incomplete picture, while important commercial and contractual details were not properly highlighted. Once signed, you are locked into a very restrictive 3-year contract with little to no flexibility. Our experience: extremely expensive, lacking transparency, and highly aggressive commercially. Our advice to other businesses: think carefully before signing with Payhawk and have all pricing and contractual terms thoroughly reviewed before committing. Not a pleasant company to work with.

Pros

Easy to make a credit card for your employees, but that's it. But at companies like Revolut you can do this for free.

### "Great All-In-One Solution"

February 4, 2025

5.0

Great product, especially for companies with entities in different countries and having to pay in multiple currencies.

Pros

\- Can be used for multiple entities and provides several currency wallets and payments - Accounting integrations (Xero, DATEV) - Easy to set-up - Multiple features besides spend management such as expense management

Cons

\- receipt forwarding only works for user accounts - would be great to be able to deduct non-compliant payments directly from the Employee

### "Brilliant - can't recommend enough"

February 4, 2025

5.0

We have been well supported, right from the set up stage. The system is really easy to use, the how guides have been really useful when we did get stuck on something, and your customer service is responsive and helpful. Having recently moved over from one of your competitors, Payhawk is hands down the leading spend card system for us

Pros

Really easy to use. Our guys on the road were up and running with minimal training because it was so intuitive. The ability to have virtual cards means that new starters aren't having to submit expense claims any more.

Cons

Would be nice to be able to hide some of the payment categories depending on users. Not all staff need to see Office expense categories, for example.

Switched from

[Spendesk](https://www.capterra.com/p/157515/Spendesk/)

The system was lacking, and their customer support was unresponsive, even when we experienced business critical issues. Their pricing structure also meant that their product would get more and more expensive the more we grew

### "Streamlined Expenses, Top-Notch Support!!!"

February 5, 2025

4.0

Payhawk simplifies expense management, saving us time and effort. With a few modifications, it could offer greater flexibility, but overall, it’s an excellent tool!

Pros

The best way to record our company expenses and is a very User-Friendly "tool"

Cons

While there is nothing currently to dislike, there is always room for small improvements on any platform.

### "Really good spend management SaaS"

June 16, 2025

5.0

Overall - great experience, Payhawk as a product has improved over the last few years so we are happy with this SaaS.

Pros

Its easy to use and the app is great. Integration with NetSuite works well too as well as the platform overall is user friendly.

Cons

No USD bank to bank transfers yet, sometimes there are bugs with integrations. When they update cards - theres no easy way to move subscriptions.

### "Excellent tool for expenses management"

February 5, 2025

5.0

The overall experience is positive, it allows to manage all the expenses in a simple way and effective. It also has a good synchronization with many ERP systems.

Pros

It is easy to handle to all the receipts and invoices and centralize everything in one single space in a user-friendly dashboard.

Cons

I would like to be able to make transfers internationally to all countries. There are some invoices from certain countries for which I have to use a regular bank to pay the invoice that is already in Payhawk. If Payhawk opens the possibility of sending the money directly from Payhawk worldwide it would be great.

### "Decent platform but approval workflows and invoice matching need some work"

February 5, 2025

3.0

Works ok for multi-entity, very easy to issue, manage and use cards, AP is ok, reimbursements are good

Pros

Good multi entity AP/expense management. Additional users don't cost extra unlike some other expense platforms so we can have more non-card users on the platform for reimbursements etc, Cash back on card spend

Cons

Approval workflows are a bit clunky, receipt match is not very good (probably get a 50% match rate)

### "Smooth process for submitting office expenses"

May 8, 2025

5.0

This is my first time using this system at my current workplace. And I like having clear visibility of expenses being submitted internally and approved by the respective managers. This helps both Finance and Sales to keep a track to not exceed the budget for the year or month.

Pros

Nice and easy to keep track of monthly expenses. Streamlined process of submitting and approving expenses/reimbursements.

Cons

An expense settled picks up the Supplier name in the invoice as default which ideally should be Payhawk.

May 8, 2025

5.0

Pros

Lo que más me gustó de Payhawk es la facilidad para controlar los gastos de empresa en tiempo real, así como la integración con otras herramientas contables que agiliza muchísimo los procesos administrativos. La interfaz es intuitiva y permite a los equipos financieros tener mayor visibilidad y control sin esfuerzo.

Cons

Lo que menos me gustó fue que la configuración inicial puede ser un poco compleja si no estás familiarizado con plataformas de gestión financiera. También hay ciertas funciones avanzadas que podrían estar mejor explicadas o documentadas para nuevos usuarios.

### "Expenses simplified"

February 4, 2025

5.0

Payhawk has made expense submission for me efficient and has removed the usual pain I have. The auto populate from images of receipts is probably the best I've experienced for expenses software.

Pros

The AI feature that can pull information and prepopulate expenses. Super handy and helps with expenses submission

Cons

I cannot edit an expense once submitted if I notice a mistake. Would be useful if this can be added as an option prior to approval

May 1, 2025

5.0

Experience with Payhawk has been good so far. I use it everyday. It's easy and a timesaver to manage our accounting.

Pros

Payhawk is easy to use, very logical so no need to train people for use. The accounts can be customized to a big extent, so all users have different levels of what they can or can't do.

Cons

No downsides so far. In case of issues or questions they are very reachable via the chat.

### "Payhawk saves time"

February 5, 2025

5.0

I like the virtual card experience. It helps to add the card to they payment methods and use it without any additional manual information entering while purchasing.

Pros

It helps to pay for things from my learning budget, e.g., buying books whenever needed. Even though it could be better, the auto-classification of the purchases saves time.

Cons

When I get a refund (e.g. a lost package from Amazon), I still have to upload the refund invoice even though the transfer to the card already contains all the information.

February 5, 2025

5.0

My experience with Payhawk has been overwhelmingly positive. It has streamlined our financial processes, reduced manual work, and provided valuable insights into company spending. Highly recommended for businesses looking to modernize their financial operations.

Pros

What I liked most about Payhawk is its seamless integration of expense management, corporate cards, and accounting. The platform is incredibly user-friendly, and the real-time tracking feature helps maintain full control over company spending.

Cons

What I liked least was the occasional delay in customer support response times. While the platform is robust, quicker support would enhance the overall experience, especially during urgent issues.

February 4, 2025

5.0

Payhawk is a great tool for managing expenses efficiently. The automation features and integrations help simplify tracking and approvals, making it a convenient solution for daily use.

Pros

Payhawk makes expense tracking incredibly easy with its intuitive interface and automation features. I love that I can add my company card to Google Pay, which makes payments more convenient. The receipt scanning and approval workflows also streamline our processes, saving time on reimbursements and reconciliation.

Cons

The receipt scanner could be more accurate and responsive when capturing details.
