Overview
Emburse is a travel and expense software group that sells two tiers of expense product, Expense Professional and Expense Enterprise, alongside matching Book (travel), Invoice and Pay products, the Captio expense app, cards and add-ons such as AI Audit and Analytics Pro[5]. The company states it has 18,000 customers, 12 million users, more than 200 countries, over US$65 billion of annual spend processed and more than 850 employees[6]. Its own history page records that the technology investor K1 acquired the Canadian expense provider Nexonia in 2015[6].
Emburse is positioned as an alternative to SAP Concur for organisations that want a configurable T&E platform without an SAP dependency. The two-tier structure lets smaller organisations start on Professional and larger, multi-entity customers use Enterprise. The company lists localisation for more than 100 countries and a set of security attestations including SOC 1 Type II, SOC 2 Type II and PCI DSS[5]. Its main drawbacks for buyers are the absence of published pricing, which makes comparison harder, and a product range assembled from several formerly separate brands, so feature sets and user interfaces differ between the Professional and Enterprise lines[5].
