Key Features

Travel booking

Expense automation
Zoho Expense moves expense management from automation to autonomy, capturing expenses, organizing them into reports, and routing approvals automatically.
Card feeds
Keep your bank. Keep your card program. Zoho Expense connects to your existing cards and starts working the moment the card is swiped.
Spend intelligence
Powered by Zia, Zoho's AI engine, Zoho Expense works across travel, expenses, cards, and compliance to keep spend captured, governed, and moving automatically in the background.
Expense reports
Receipts, mileage and card transactions automatically turn into categorized expenses and ready-to-submit reports.
Policy review
Zia reviews every expense against company policies to flag duplicate claims, risky merchants, and unusual spend patterns.
Spend overview
Travel, card feeds, reimbursements, and accounting activity come together into one connected view of spend across the organization.
Spend forecasting

Spend visibility
CFO summary views, manager drill-downs, and team-level spend trackers provide real-time visibility into spend across the organization.
