Case Study: Farmdrop achieves tighter cost control and faster reporting with Soldo

Farmdrop uses Soldo to control costs without putting the brakes on their impressive growth

Farmdrop, a London-based online grocer connecting customers with local farms, experienced rapid growth during the UK lockdown and needed to control spending without slowing the business. Before adopting Soldo, Farmdrop relied on multiple personal-name credit cards that produced hundreds of monthly transactions, little visibility, high startup card costs, and time-consuming manual reconciliations. They chose Soldo’s expense-management platform, including prepaid and virtual cards, to give teams instant access to funds while restoring financial control.

Soldo rolled out dedicated physical cards for kitchens and virtual cards for recurring spends, with auto-top-ups, spend limits, auto-tagging and NetSuite integration. As a result, Farmdrop gained full visibility of costs, tighter budgetary controls and much faster reporting—eliminating the need to chase receipts and manually code hundreds of transactions each month—while preventing service interruptions and making future cost planning far easier. Soldo’s tools also improved staff experience by simplifying day-to-day spending.
