Our verdict: Payhawk
Best for growing European businesses managing multiple entities who want to centralize cards, expenses, vendor invoices and purchases in a tool connected to their ERP. Not for you if you want clear pricing from the start: outside Growth at £149 per month, everything is quote-based, and the modular base is oversized for a microenterprise.
Our verdict: Spendesk
Recommended for French SMEs in growth who want to take control of expenses (cards, reports, invoices) with a compliant, French tool. Not suitable for solo freelancers or microbusinesses with tight budgets: the lack of public pricing and SME positioning make the tool oversized for individual activity.
