    But don't take our word for it. Take a look at our 2023 Fall Season Capterra and G2 results to see how we are delighting our customers across software features, usability, customer success and more.

    G2 high performer in invoice management

    As a Payhawk customer, you could streamline your financial processes and reclaim over two hours of manual work daily through intelligent automation.

    Our invoice management software, powered by OCR data extraction and machine learning, automates data extraction in over 60 languages, digitises bookkeeping, and captures crucial invoice details like supplier names, dates, due dates, countries, VAT numbers, and amounts across multiple entities and currencies.

    Here's what our users had to say on G2:

    “Now we can control all the expenses across the company; the invoice payment is outstandingly defined, and you can pay all your pending vendor invoices and expenses in bulk. I can also control the monthly subscriptions and define the categories and departments, and automatically synchronise them with my accounting software.”

    Need to effortlessly track company expenses and transactions in real time? With our expense management software, you can prioritise payment traceability by linking corporate visa cards to specific employees and enabling individual and team spending, complete with approval flows.

    You can also simplify budget management with cost-centre or project-based budgets linked to cards and monitor real-time spend for valuable insights and adjustments. Plus, never miss payments or subscriptions again, with automated reminders for insufficient card funds and missing receipts.
