New solution puts employee expense reporting in the express
lane
SAN
MATEO, Calif., Jan. 24,
2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Coupa Software (NASDAQ: COUP), a
leader in Business Spend Management (BSM), and Uber for Business,
Uber's enterprise arm, today announced a new collaboration to
significantly enhance end-user experiences and compliance with
expense policies. The integration will be available in
February.
Coupa is the first BSM platform to utilize Uber for Business'
Receipts API for expense automation. Through Uber for Business'
Receipts API, Coupa automatically will generate expense reports for
trips through Uber for Business, with the receipt already attached,
saving employees valuable time. This step also helps eliminate risk
for companies fighting incomplete or inaccurate compliance
reporting. This leapfrogs other integration models that require
employees to manually find and attach receipts for trips completed
with Uber for Business.
"At Uber for Business we are committed to creating magical
experiences for companies and their employees," said Susan Anderson, Global Head of Uber for
Business. "We're excited for our latest business expense innovation
to come to life with Coupa. With this easy-to-use integration, the
expensing experience becomes seamless for all. Reports are
conveniently generated automatically, ensuring that employees don't
have to waste time finding and attaching individual receipts for
rides ordered with Uber for Business. Companies stand to benefit
too. The new integration can provide a better understanding of
company expenses, which can lead to opportunities to smartly
navigate the current economic landscape and cut costs
accordingly."
"User-centricity is at the heart of Coupa's travel and expense
management solution," said Raja
Hammoud, Executive Vice President of Products. "From using
voice for expense line creation to automated mileage tracking, we
have a history of innovation that delights business travelers by
eliminating manual effort."
"Coupa's data shows that Uber is one of the most expensed
merchants of all time on the Coupa platform. This new integration
with Uber will drive immense value for our users and customers by
making expensing rideshare trips easier than ever. The days of
attaching receipts manually for Uber trips are over," said
Hammoud.
