What you get
Expense claims are small but there are a lot of them. We make it easy to submit, check them against your policy automatically, route them for approval and post them to your books without anyone retyping.
In South Africa that means working with VAT201 returns, PAYE/UIF/SDL through EMP201, and B-BBEE reporting. We connect straight into Sage Business Cloud, Xero and Pastel, which covers most of the Johannesburg businesses we talk to.
- Receipt capture from phone, email or WhatsApp
- Policy checks and approval routing
- Budget tracking by team and project
- Reimbursements batched and posted to the ledger
Why Johannesburg teams need it
Joburg, and Sandton especially, is where South Africa's banks, mining houses and telecoms run their head offices. The paperwork volume is huge. SMEs and finance teams here run into the same problem: the work grows faster than the team. Organisations like Standard Bank, MTN and Discovery set the pace locally, and the suppliers and smaller firms around them need to keep up without adding headcount.
