The new feature offers finance teams a unified platform for managing SaaS, travel, and business expenses—at no extra cost.
London, 05 February 2025 – Cledara, the leading SaaS management platform, announced the launch of Cledara Spend, a revolutionary feature that enables growing technology companies to consolidate all business card spend on a single platform. This new offering — included for free in all existing Cledara plans — introduces physical cards and a mobile app, empowering businesses to simplify expense management for real-world spending such as travel, corporate entertainment, and other general business costs.
Meeting the Needs of Tech Companies
Cledara gives technology companies complete visibility and control over their SaaS subscriptions. These companies trust Cledara for their software spend, yet they still need physical cards for occasional business purchases – requiring them to adopt separate tools like Spendesk, Pleo and Payhawk, which are often unnecessarily expensive and come packed with irrelevant features for technology companies. Cledara Spend eliminates this pain point by consolidating SaaS and general business expense management into a single platform. By including it as a free feature within existing plans, Cledara saves customers upwards of $15,000 annually.
"Our customers love Cledara because SaaS spend is the majority of their card spend, and they deserve a solution that consolidates all their needs without the complexity and cost of traditional expense management tools," said Cristina Vila, CEO and Co-Founder of Cledara. “With Cledara Spend, we’re delivering what our customers have been asking for: a smarter, more streamlined way to manage all business expenses on one platform.”
In the United States, similar solutions are often free, while in the UK and Europe, technology companies have been forced to overpay for tools designed for legacy industries. Cledara’s decision to launch Cledara Spend redefines expectations by offering a cost-effective, tailored solution for technology companies.
"Traditional expense tools are built for businesses stuck in the past,” Vila added. “Cledara Spend is for the future—technology companies that demand simplicity, efficiency, and value. We’re proud to lead the charge in making these tools free where they should be.”
