Case Study: The World Federation of Advertisers streamlines expense management with Payhawk

The World Federation of Advertisers cuts onboarding to 3 weeks with Payhawk

The World Federation of Advertisers (WFA) faced significant challenges with its manual expense and receipt management process. Using company cards from major banks and Rydoo for tracking, the finance team lacked real-time spend visibility and was burdened with manually reconciling expenses and chasing missing receipts. This created a hefty administrative load, especially at month-end. The need for a solution became urgent when their primary corporate card provider, American Express, announced it was ceasing operations in Belgium.

Payhawk implemented its spend management solution, which included integrated corporate cards and a seamless integration with Exact Online. This streamlined the entire process, eliminating manual reconciliation and providing real-time spend control. The WFA was fully operational with Payhawk within three weeks, a significantly faster onboarding than other providers offered. The solution saved the finance team considerable time and money, with Andrew Mowbray noting that expense categorization, which was previously manual, could now be done correctly with just a click. Payhawk also provided swift card issuance and top-tier customer support, giving the finance team greater confidence and control.
