Description

Employers are often reluctant to give their home-bound employees the same sort of flexibility in payments tools they enjoy on a personal level. And for good reason: Consumer technologies lack the rigor for compliance in the workplace. But more powerful, yet easy-to-use, workplace tools are finally surfacing. Virtual Cards paired with financial technology software allow employers to customize access to and use of payments with enhanced compliance, including:

• Approval and proper coding prior to purchase
• Limited-use cards with a dedicated purpose
• Every purchase tied to the right employee
• Tools for post-purchase reconciliation

This 60-minute presentation is open to end-user Procurement and Accounts Payable (AP) professionals who understand the value and flaws of a P-Card program, as well as finance compliance and audit leadership interested in next generation control solutions for a decentralized workforce.
