Case Study: German Rowing Federation achieves faster, fully digital travel expense processing with Circula

German Rowing Federation digitizes travel expenses with Circula, achieving 91.5% DATEV exports and reimbursements in under 6 days

The German Rowing Federation faced the challenge of managing a paper-based travel expense process for its decentralized teams, which created significant administrative burdens and delayed reimbursements. To address this, they partnered with Circula to implement its digital travel expense and credit card service.

Circula provided a mobile app that allowed users to submit receipts digitally and integrated directly with the DATEV accounting system. This solution resulted in the processing of nearly 4,000 receipts and €786,000 exported with a 91.5% export rate. Reimbursement time was reduced to under six days, administrative effort was significantly decreased, and user satisfaction was high, as shown by an NPS score of 61.
