Overview
BILL Spend & Expense (formerly Divvy) is a free, budget-driven expense management product from BILL that combines corporate cards with software for budgeting, spend controls and expense management. Divvy was acquired by Bill.com (now BILL, NYSE: BILL) in 2021 and rebranded to BILL Spend & Expense.
The platform issues physical and virtual cards with limits and merchant rules tied directly to budgets, giving real-time visibility into spend by department, team, project or individual. Expenses are categorized instantly with timely spend notifications, and the product is offered with no monthly or annual software fees, monetized through interchange on card spend. It connects to accounting and ERP systems for reconciliation and posting.
BILL Spend & Expense is aimed primarily at small and mid-sized businesses and accountants, and is often used alongside BILL's separate accounts payable/receivable products. It integrates with NetSuite, Sage Intacct, QuickBooks, Microsoft and Xero.
