About the Client: GoPay
GoPay is a Polish technology company that enables users in many Polish cities to buy public transport tickets and tickets to cinemas, theatres and local events, all from their phones.
On a daily basis, GoPay works with many local governments and urban operators. That means an intense pace of work and frequent business trips across the country. You can follow the company on LinkedIn.
The Challenge: Paper Settlements in a Digital Company
GoPay builds mobile services, yet its own expense settlements still relied on paper. As the scale of operations grew, paper-based business trip settlements were no longer enough.
Frequent business trips: cooperation with local governments and urban operators meant regular domestic travel that had to be settled.
Daily operating expenses: besides travel, the team handled everyday business costs.
App testing: the team needed to buy tickets in its own system to test its applications.
Paperwork: invoices in binders, scanned receipts and time-consuming reporting slowed the whole process down.
For a company whose product replaces paper tickets with a phone, paper expense reports were out of step with the way the team works.
The Solution: Sparados Corporate Cards Managed Online
To gain more transparency and convenience, GoPay chose a solution that lets it work entirely online, without invoices in binders, scanning receipts or time-consuming reporting. The team uses Sparados corporate cards for:
Domestic business trips: travel costs are paid directly with the card.
Marketing costs: marketing expenses are paid and tracked in the same system.
App testing: employees buy tickets in GoPay's own system to test its applications.
Employee benefits: the cards also serve as a modern form of non-wage benefits.
How It Works
The company assigns Sparados cards to employees in seconds.
Employees pay for business trips, marketing costs or test purchases with the card.
Every transaction appears in the panel in real time.
Transactions are assigned to expense categories, so it is clear who spent money, when and on what.
Settling a business trip takes a few clicks in the app instead of paper forms.
Remote Management in the Sparados Panel
The Sparados panel gives GoPay access to all transactions in real time. The company can assign cards to employees in seconds and track expenses by category. Everything is managed remotely, from a computer, tablet or phone, without sending paper documents.
The Results: 80% Faster Business Trip Settlement
For the GoPay team, the change is not only about convenience but above all about tangible improvements:
80% faster business trip expense settlement: the whole process has been simplified and digitized. Employees no longer collect paperwork or fill out forms; a few clicks in the app are enough.
Full transparency of business expenses: all transactions are automatically assigned to the right categories, so it is clear who spent money, when and on what. This saves time for both employees and the finance department.
A fit with how a technology company works: both GoPay and Sparados operate 100% digitally, a good match for a team that values speed, automation and mobility.
Convenient employee benefits: Sparados cards also work as a flexible, fast and immediate form of non-wage benefits.
