Travel expense reports can be so easy

You have a high-performing team. You’re on the road a lot. So much, that the piles of receipts keep getting bigger? That’s no good – you’ll be waiting forever to get refunded, and your company doesn’t know what their budget actually looks like. But when would you have time for all those invoices? After all, you’re hardly ever in the office. The Rydoo cloud service lets you settle your receipts from wherever you might be. Just create a trip, use your phone to photograph your receipts, check over the scanned receipt data, add any details you want and send. That’s it! With text recognition, automated functions and predefined accounting processes, you hardly have to lift a finger, and your travel expense reporting is practically done for you. If you like numbers, take a look at these: This takes 87% less time and in-house processing costs by 81%. Pretty cool, right? About half a million users at 3,000 companies in over 60 countries already think so. Rydoo saves them 805,000 work hours a year. And it’s fun to use, too!

The solution for travel costs

Always there – in your web browser or as a mobile app

To use Rydoo, all you need is a basic web browser. For even more convenience, try the mobile apps for Android and Apple iOS. Rydoo is right at your fingertips – anytime, anywhere. Log your trips and receipts as you go. It takes less effort and makes your expense reporting much more accurate, given that digital receipts aren’t nearly as easy to lose.

On the road in real time

Rydoo processes travel expenses in real time. As a cost center manager, you can keep track of the budget as it develops. With the additional reports on travel expenses or reimbursements, you’ll also have insight into how costs are trending over time. Print the reports out or export the numbers to convert them into graphics.

Want to stay always in the loop when it comes to travel expenses? With Rydoo, you can do it without ever coming into the office. The mobile app lets you use your smartphone or tablet to see how much money your company spends on business travel, how much they pay in trip advances or how much time employees spend on the road. You’ll have a better understanding of your team’s spending habits, so you can make the right decisions when it comes to contract negotiations or cost cutting.

It doesn’t get any easier than this

Still copying receipts and typing them up? There’s an easier way. Take a picture of your receipts, and leave the rest to Rydoo. This cloud service uses Optical Character Recognition (OCR) to automatically detect tax-related information like the contractor, date, receipt total or currency and then plugs this information into the calculation. Its a reliable process that automatically detects and takes out duplicates. If need be, you can also add in more information, e.g. project reference numbers or cost centers. And what if you've already digitized your receipts? No problem! Just drag & drop the documents into your web browser. Or you can just as easily email PDF invoices to Rydoo.

Let Rydoo take care of your busy work

Using the trip details you’ve entered, Rydoo calculates mileage allowances and per diems, all according to tax rates and company rules. Using Google Maps, the app automatically calculates mileages. All that’s left to do is check the final amount and click to submit the trip for approval.

Just wave it through

Travel requests piling up on your end, too? With rydoo, you can approve trips with just a few clicks. Because Rydoo knows your company’s travel expense rules inside and out. The cloud service learns guidelines down to the smallest detail, based on categories, projects and rules. So per diems and mileage allowances are calculated correctly and consistently throughout the company. If travel expenses don’t comply with the guidelines or if a threshold has been exceeded, you’ll be the first to know. With Rydoo, nothing can slip under your radar. And the whole thing works on the road, too. With the mobile app, you can pull up trip details and approve expenses with the swipe of a finger. Automated workflows ensure that your staff are immediately notified of any status changes. Write an email? No need.
