  • Offers fast solutions for emergency purchases.
  • Reduces operational costs.

Enhanced Control of Business Expenses
  • Allows your company to focus on strategic purchases - those purchases representing 80% of your investments.
  • Simplifies the process for 80% of those transactions that represent only 20% of your investments.
  • Allows for better control of purchases because your company can establish flexible limits by Transaction, Month, Affiliate, Provider, and Department.
  • Each purchase is authorized according to the established control at the moment of transaction.

Flexible Data Processing and Supplier Administration

Business Travel Account
With the Business Travel Account, all airline tickets are conveniently billed to one account with centralized billing, so your company will only need to review one statement and make one monthly payment for air travel. This solution allows you to consolidate and control air travel expenses incurred by all employees, the individuals who travel occasionally on behalf of your company (and therefore, do not have a Corporate Card), non-employees (clients, vendors), or even groups.

How it works
  • Reservations are made through a designated Travel Agency.
  • American Express sends your company a detailed monthly statement and monthly file.
  • The company reconciles the American Express statement and those statements received from the Travel Agency.
  • The company makes one monthly payment to American Express for the amount invoiced.

Benefits of the Business Travel Account
  • Improves company's cash flow.
  • Allows greater control of business expenses.
  • Facilitates expense administration.
  • Provides Automatic Travel Accident Insurance* at no additional cost.
