Compliant with regulations

Some countries like Germany set specific per diem rates for companies to follow for their employees. These rates are based on the amount of time away from home. And they don’t include any costs already covered by the employer, such as accommodation. Payhawk’s per diem calculations are 100% compliant with the German regulations.

Payhawk’s per diem calculations are 100% compliant with German and international regulations. This helps us ensure efficient business travel expense processing for your business.

Streamline employee reimbursements

Manage all business travel expenses and approvals for employees that don't use a company card. You can also automate and customise approval workflows for reimbursements according to your company’s expense policy.

Put your finance team in the driving seat

With Payhawk, an employee can add their personal bank account information when they add the expense for reimbursement. The finance team then reviews the expenses and can reimburse individually or in bulk in just a few clicks. The funds will then hit the employee’s bank account in a flash, thanks to Instant SEPA and Faster Payments.


Save time and empower your team

Reimbursable expenses can be a major source of tension in a business. For the finance team, this looks like getting people to submit expense reports on time and avoiding lost receipts. While for their non-finance colleagues, it’s about getting reimbursed promptly, especially for urgent payments. Thanks to Payhawk, you can eliminate many of these issues and save time and friction, allowing your team to focus on what matters instead; growing the business.
