Case Study: Boston Celtics shorten month-end close by 7 days with Brex

Boston Celtics shortens month-end close by 7 days with Brex

The Boston Celtics, a storied professional basketball franchise, faced significant challenges with a fragmented financial system. They relied on a combination of other corporate cards and manual processes, leading to labor-intensive month-end closes, difficulty enforcing policies, and a lack of scalability. To address this, they turned to Brex for its corporate cards, expense management, and NetSuite integration.

By implementing Brex, the Celtics consolidated cards, expenses, reimbursements, and accounting workflows onto a single platform. The solution's AI capabilities and NetSuite integration automated categorization, coding, and approval processes. This resulted in the month-end close being shortened by 7 days, a 96% policy compliance rate, and over $65,000 earned in rewards. Brex provided real-time visibility and transformed the finance team into a strategic partner for the business.
