Amazon Business customers previously had to upload purchase e-receipts into their expense solution and, if their employer required line-item breakdowns of purchases, manually create an expense item for each product. E-receipts then needed to be reconciled with corporate credit cards. Leveraging merchant Level 3 card transaction datai eliminates the need for Amazon Business customers to manually submit their receipt to their expense management solution, following the purchase click on the Amazon Business site.
The integrated solution automatically renders e-receipts directly in the customer’s receipt wallet within the expense solution. Once in the receipt wallet, each transaction is automatically parsed into individual line items and categorized based on the customer’s purchasing history and company policies. This eliminates the need for customers to manually enter each product as a single expense, and provides much greater line-item clarity for administrators to ensure spend is compliant.

Mastercard is modernizing the business payment ecosystem to provide greater control, automation and efficiencies,” said James Anderson, Executive Vice President of Global Commercial Products, Mastercard. “Emburse’s solution is innovative technology supporting this digital shift, helping create smarter business payment options for a business’s purchasing and expense management.”
