Middle market and large corporations that operate in the logistics, haulage, distribution and delivery sector, along with taxi fleets and organisations with car fleets, all face unique challenges when it comes to managing expenses and optimising financial processes for their employees on the road.
Traditional purchase cards like fuel cards have one specific purpose: buying fuel. They do not provide the flexibility, controls and credit limits needed to work across the entire corporate group, irrespective of where employees are travelling and the transport method they use.
Fuel cards and purchase cards, also known as fleet cards, have been widely used by businesses and government agencies to manage and control fuel expenses and vehicle-related purchases. However, in recent years, there has been a noticeable decline in their usage, with credit cards emerging as a preferred alternative.
That's where Numarqe credit cards come in. Offering the best possible replacement for fuel cards and purchase cards, the Numarqe credit platform provides you with a powerful credit Swiss army knife of features that address the specific needs large firms encounter. We insist on excellent customer service and account management for the numerous benefits highlighted below:
Numarqe credit cards provide logistics and delivery firms the flexibility they need to navigate their complex financial landscape. With our credit cards, businesses can access an unsecured line of credit that allows them to purchase beyond what is available in their bank accounts in multiple currencies. This added flexibility ensures that companies can meet their financial needs without limitations. Cards can be issued with variable credit limits and in multiple currencies, and where required, spending controls can be applied to specific merchants such as fuel retailers.
Fuel and purchase cards are limited to specific vendors they are linked to, so why put employees through the pain of looking for particular fuel outlets or accommodation providers, with no guarantee of obtaining the lowest price? This wastes time and money. Embrace the flexibility of a credit card that is accepted globally in over 210 countries and territories and at any merchant. Give your employees more flexibility but with customised spending controls in place to prevent overspending.
Managing expenses is crucial for UK businesses, which is why Numarqe credit cards offer advanced spending controls. Companies can set limits on individual cardholders' spending, such as maximum spend limit per transaction, or applied to a particular merchant, such as a fuel retailer, ensuring that expenses stay within budgetary constraints. This level of control helps firms manage their finances more effectively while keeping a close eye on costs and available credit, yet still providing flexibility to employees.
With advanced expense management features, Numarqe's virtual and physical credit card solutions are built to streamline operations for large firms. Real-time transaction tracking provides businesses with up-to-date visibility into their spending, while detailed reporting allows for comprehensive expense analysis and capture of the associated VAT. These tools enable firms to monitor and optimise their expenses more efficiently, saving both time and money.
Numarqe's corporate credit cards are not just financial instruments but pivotal components of an integrated financial management ecosystem. By offering seamless bi-directional integrations with leading accounting software, Numarqe ensures that all credit card purchases are automatically captured and categorised, facilitating:
Automated Expense Reconciliation: Minimise manual data entry and reduce administrative burdens, allowing your finance team to focus on strategic analysis and decision-making.
Receipt capture and VAT coding: No more chasing receipts; users are prompted at the point of transaction to instantly upload an image of their receipts and ensure the correct ledger and VAT coding.
Insightful Financial Analytics: Gain immediate access to comprehensive spending data, empowering your business with the insights needed to drive cost-efficiency and financial optimisation.
Understanding the diverse needs of mid-market businesses, Numarqe offers the flexibility of both virtual and physical corporate credit cards. This approach not only caters to various operational requirements but also enhances security and spending oversight:
Instant Access with Virtual Cards: Facilitate immediate transaction capabilities for urgent expenditures, ensuring your business remains agile and responsive.
