A Pleo Case Study
EcoBurner, an Irish supplier of buffet heating solutions for hotels, faced acute disruption when the hospitality sector collapsed in 2020. With a sales team frequently traveling and dozens of small foreign‑currency transactions, founder Ciaran Doyle needed a simpler way to manage reimbursements and expense admin — so EcoBurner trialed Pleo, using Pleo cards and later Pocket to replace clumsy bank cards and spreadsheet-based processes.
Pleo provided company cards, a shared fund and receipt‑upload workflows, plus Pocket to remove payroll reimbursements, streamlining spend capture and reconciliation. The result: by the first working day of the month all card activity is reconciled, payroll reimbursements were eliminated, and the change saved roughly 5–6 man‑days across the company — a clear efficiency gain delivered by Pleo.
