Brex alternatives by what you need

How to choose a Brex alternative

  • Decide whether you want cards. Card-led products are often free because they earn on interchange, but they require moving spend onto their cards.
  • Check GST capture — the ability to record supplier GSTIN and claim ITC on employee expenses is a real saving that many global tools skip.
  • Look at accounting sync depth: line-level export with cost centres beats a monthly CSV.
