Connect your corporate cards
You can connect your 3rd-party corporate credit cards to Tipalti.
The Tipalti Support team can set up the Tipalti Hub to import your corporate credit card transactions from Visa, MasterCard, and American Express. This process brings all these transactions into the Tipalti Hub, making them easier to manage, and helps you collect and organize receipts for these transactions. Employees and finance teams can review them and sync the information with your ERP system, along with your regular expenses and Tipalti Card transactions.
To connect, ensure you have a corporate card, not a business card.
Before you start, we recommend confirming with your bank that they can enable a card feed according to the guidelines below.
