What does Spendesk cost?

Spendesk publishes no prices. The model is a fixed monthly subscription for platform access plus variable fees based on transaction volume across card purchases, invoice payments and expense claims. There is no per-user charge, and physical cards carry no order or monthly fee. Every quote is made on request.

Can an AI assistant work in Spendesk?

Yes, through Spendesk AI Connect, an official MCP connector that works with assistants such as Claude and Dust. It is read-only by design: an assistant can query wallet balances, payables, purchase orders, suppliers, users and cost centres, but cannot create payments, approve invoices, modify suppliers or change records.

Which plan includes Accounts Payable?

Accounts Payable is an add-on rather than part of the Foundations base plan, as are Procurement, advanced workflows and policies, multi-entity management, HR and ERP integrations and AI-based automation.

Overview

Spendesk is a spend management platform that puts company cards, expense claims, accounts payable, procurement and budgets in one place. Employees draw on unlimited virtual cards, request top-ups and upload receipts from the mobile app, while spend limits and approval workflows are set centrally so budgets are protected before the money moves. Spendesk keeps no ledger: transactions, receipts and invoices export to Sage, Xero, QuickBooks, NetSuite, SAP and DATEV. Pricing is modular and quoted, a base plan plus add-ons charged as a fixed monthly fee with no per-user charge.

Our take

Spendesk suits a European finance team that wants one system for cards, claims and supplier invoices and is prepared to go through a sales conversation to find out what it costs. Charging by transaction volume rather than per seat means the whole company can be given cards without the licence count becoming the deciding factor, which is the opposite trade to most tools in this category. The read-only MCP connector is a sober choice worth noting: an assistant can answer questions about the spend but cannot approve or pay anything, so it removes a category of risk instead of adding one. The gap to watch is the ledger, since the platform stops at the export and someone still has to keep the books.

Features

Invoicing and quotes: Incoming supplier invoices only, through the Accounts Payable module: invoices are collected, matched, routed for approval and paid, with Procurement covering the purchase request and order beforehand. Customer invoicing and accounts receivable are not among the listed modules
Bookkeeping and bank feeds: No general ledger of its own; transactions, receipts and invoices export automatically to Sage, Xero, QuickBooks, NetSuite, SAP and DATEV
Expenses and receipts: Yes, unlimited virtual cards and free physical cards with per-card limits and no monthly card fee, expense claims, and receipt capture from the iOS and Android app
Tax and compliance: VAT support rather than filing: Smart OCR reads merchant, date, amount and VAT from each receipt, the original image is kept in an encrypted, audit-ready archive next to the extracted fields, and the reconciled data syncs to Xero, QuickBooks and NetSuite for the VAT return itself
Payroll: No payroll module; the platform covers company cards, expense claims, accounts payable, procurement and budgets, with HR tools connected through integrations
Reports and exports: Yes, integrated budgeting and spend visibility across several entities, plus Spendesk AI Connect for querying spend data, building reports and checking budget variance in plain language through an AI assistant
Integrations and API: Yes, a public API documented at developer.spendesk.com for partner integrations and customer automation, plus an official read-only MCP connector exposing wallet balances, payables, settlements, purchase orders, suppliers, users, cost centres and expense categories

How we check reviews

Reviews are not published yet. The form on a tool's page works and reaches us, but nothing from it appears on this site, so no score here is based on a review. The rules below are the ones that will apply once reviews go live.

Every review is read by a person before it appears. We require a working email address and use it to come back to the author, so a review has a reachable sender rather than being anonymous. We publish positive and negative reviews alike, we pay nothing and offer nothing for a review, and we accept none that was bought or incentivised.

What we cannot do is verify a purchase. There is no shop here and no account, so whether the author really used the tool rests on what they tell us, plus the plausibility of what they write. We say so rather than implying a check that does not exist.

A vendor cannot have a review removed, cannot buy one, and cannot have one changed. Paid placement and a paid listing have no effect on which reviews appear or on any score.
