American Express RTN Brochure

SAP Concur and American Express (Amex) are expanding their partnership to simplify expense management for shared customers. One-third of SAP Concur customers use the Amex corporate card to capture expense transactions. To streamline the end-to-end experience, SAP Concur and Amex are launching a real-time authorization data capability whereby American Express Corporate Card purchases automatically generate and categorize expenses, starting with meal transactions, in Concur Expense at the time of spend. This integration will include real time mobile notifications via the Concur mobile app that alerts the employee with expense policy reminders in the moment to help drive policy adherence and minimize manual effort. The most common type of expense submitted within Concur Expense is meals. In fact, a quarter of all expenses are meals, which is why the capability will first be available for meal expenses. For example, when users purchase lunch with their Amex Corporate Card, an expense entry is automatically created and the user can be notified if additional information is required, such as capturing the receipt image or adding attendees. The integration with Amex is another important milestone on our journey to fully automate the expense management process, from purchase to reimbursement.
