Expense Management

Expense management software that pays people back on time

Snap the bill, submit the claim — tracked from receipt scan to reimbursement.

Employees raise receipt-backed claims from the app — Kredily can read the merchant, amount and date off the bill. Claims route through up to five approval levels with escalation, then land in a ready-to-reimburse queue that settles with salary or pays out standalone. No spreadsheets, no lost bills, no “where’s my money”.

AI works the queue with you

The claim fills itself — and the AI keeps watch

Less typing for employees, fewer surprises for finance. Approvals stay human.

Receipt scan

Drop a receipt (PDF, JPG or PNG) and Kredily reads the merchant, amount and date off the bill and fills the claim — employees just check and submit.

AI Copilot

“Where’s my ₹1,840 cab claim?” “What’s waiting in my approval queue?” — plain-English answers grounded in your real claims data, role-gated so everyone sees only what they should.

Anomalies flagged

Claims that miss a receipt, cross a category limit or arrive months late are flagged and routed for extra review — and Expense Intelligence surfaces fraud signals for finance.

From claim to payout

The whole reimbursement cycle, in one place

Everything finance chases over email today — structured, visible and on time.

Claims in seconds

Category, date, amount and a receipt — from the employee app or web. Merchant and notes optional; the claim lands in the approver’s queue instantly.

Categories & limits

Configure categories like Travel, Meals, Fuel or Software with sub-categories (Flight, Train, Cab…) and per-category limits that claims are checked against.

Soft flags, hard blocks

Policy controls decide: a missing-but-recommended receipt or a mild overage gets flagged for extra review; a required-but-missing receipt or a far-over-limit claim is blocked outright.

Multi-currency

Travelling teams claim in foreign currency with live conversion to your base currency — accepted currencies and rates are yours to configure.

Bulk actions

Approvers tick claims and Bulk Approve or Bulk Reject in one go — a bulk rejection applies the same reason to every selected claim.

Behalf claims

Finance can add an expense for an employee — category, amount, department, payment mode — and queue it straight for payout. Offline reimbursements, on the record.

Approvals that fit your org

From one manager to a five-level chain

Route by amount, escalate when someone sits on it, and record every decision with a reason.

Build the chain

  • Up to 5 approval levels, each assigned a role: Manager, Dept Head, HR Executive, HR Admin, Finance Admin or CEO
  • Threshold routing — claims below the amount need the manager only; at or above it, the full chain
  • Flagged claims route for extra review even under the threshold

Keep it moving

  • Auto-escalation — a claim unactioned for N days (default 7) moves to the next approver automatically
  • Auto-finalize after manager approval for lower-risk claims
  • Restrict managers from approving their own reports’ claims; allow skip-approval where you want it

Decisions on record

  • Partial approval — approve ₹900 of a ₹1,200 meal; the employee sees exactly what was and wasn’t paid
  • Rejections require a reason, shown to the employee — nothing disputed later
  • Chain history on every claim — see exactly where it sits (e.g. Manager · L1/2)
Reimbursement

A ready-to-reimburse queue, not an inbox

Approved claims wait in one payout queue, filtered by financial year and month — finance runs the batch, employees see the status.

The payout queue

Every approved claim with employee, category, amount, payment mode and payout status — and a ready-to-reimburse banner totalling what’s due this cycle.

Pay your way

Bank transfer by default, or UPI, cash and cheque per claim. Use Mark paid to record payouts made outside Kredily, and Check status to refresh one in flight.

With salary, or standalone

Push approved claims to payroll so reimbursements land with salary — or run a standalone reimbursement batch any day of the month.

Status, end to end

Unpaid → Initiated → Pending → Paid, with Failed and Hold handled explicitly — and the employee’s claim reflects the payout, so they see it too.

Finance automation

Finance only touches the exceptions

Risk scoring, GST intelligence and fraud signals run over every claim — Autopilot clears the low-risk queue so your team reviews what actually needs eyes.

Risk scoring & Autopilot

  • Every claim scored; the queue ranks by risk with a plain-English "why"
  • Autopilot clears low-risk claims — in policy, receipt present, no duplicate
  • A risk dashboard shows pending claims by level and flags by type

GST intelligence

  • GST identified on receipts per category — with input-tax-credit eligibility
  • GSTIN status tracked per merchant; missing GST flagged for finance
  • Stop leaking input tax credit on employee-paid expenses

Fraud signals & merchants

  • Advanced fraud screen: duplicates, split claims and pattern signals — scored, with linked claims
  • Merchant analytics: top merchants, spend, average per claim, health
  • A finance sign-off queue for everything the signals catch

Intelligence built in

Expense Intelligence for finance

Every claim feeds Kredily’s leadership cockpit — spend included.

Spend, decoded

Expense spend by category, department and merchant — computed from actual claims, with merchant analysis on top.

Fraud signals

A finance review queue surfaces flagged claims and fraud signals — missing receipts, limit breaches and unusual patterns — before they’re paid, not after.

Connected to payroll

Reimbursement outflow alongside payroll cost, per team and per month. Explore the full cockpit in Workforce Intelligence.

How it works

Three steps to reimbursed

1

Employee submits

Snap the receipt; the scan fills merchant, amount and date. Pick a category, submit — status starts at Submitted.

2

Approvers decide

Approve in full or in part, reject with a reason, or bulk-action the queue — threshold routing and escalation keep claims from going stale.

3

Finance pays

Run the reimbursement batch — with salary or standalone, by bank, UPI, cash or cheque — and every payout status is tracked to Paid.

FAQ

Expense management questions, answered

How do employees submit expense claims?
From the Kredily employee app or web: attach the receipt (PDF, JPG or PNG), pick a category and optional sub-category, set the expense date and amount, and submit. Only category, date and amount are mandatory. The claim lands in the approver’s queue instantly with status Submitted.
Can Kredily read receipts automatically?
Yes. With receipt scanning turned on, Kredily reads the merchant, amount and date off the uploaded bill and fills the claim form — the employee just checks the values before submitting.
Can a manager approve part of a claim?
Yes. Approvers can edit the approved amount to pay less than claimed — for example trimming an over-limit meal — and the employee sees exactly what was and wasn’t paid. Rejections always carry a reason.
How many approval levels can I set up?
Up to five, each assigned a role — Manager, Dept Head, HR Executive, HR Admin, Finance Admin or CEO. An approval threshold routes small claims to the manager only, while claims at or above it go through the full chain.
What happens if an approver sits on a claim?
Auto-escalation moves a claim that has sat unactioned for a set number of days (default 7) to the next approver automatically. You can also auto-finalize lower-risk claims after manager approval so they skip the later levels.
Does Kredily enforce expense policies?
Yes — through policy controls on categories and receipts. A claim missing a recommended receipt, mildly over a category limit, or older than your allowed window is soft-flagged and sent for extra review; a claim missing a required receipt or far over the limit is blocked outright.
How are reimbursements paid out?
Approved claims wait in a ready-to-reimburse queue, filtered by month and financial year. Finance runs the batch by bank transfer, UPI, cash or cheque — settled alongside the salary run or standalone — with every payout tracked from Unpaid through Initiated and Pending to Paid.
Can finance raise a claim on an employee’s behalf?
Yes. Add Expense lets finance create a claim for an employee — category, amount, department and payment mode — and queue it straight for payout. Useful for reimbursements raised offline.
Can employees claim in foreign currency?
Yes. Claims carry a currency picker with live conversion to your base currency, and admins configure the accepted currencies and exchange rates in Settings.
Can Kredily detect duplicate or fraudulent claims?
Yes. Every claim is risk-scored, and the fraud screen surfaces duplicates, split claims and unusual patterns with a score, the specific signals and links to the related claims. Low-risk claims can be cleared by Autopilot; flagged ones queue for finance sign-off.
Does Kredily identify GST and input tax credit on expenses?
Yes. GST intelligence reads GST off receipts by category, marks input-tax-credit eligibility, and tracks merchant GSTIN status — so finance recovers ITC on employee-paid expenses instead of losing it in shoeboxes of bills.
Is expense management included free?
Kredily’s Free Forever plan covers core HR for unlimited employees. Expense payouts and approval workflows ship with the Professional plan (₹1,749/mo) and Enterprise. See Pricing for the full matrix.
