Before Juni

Inefficient employee expenses

Carl Friedrik were looking for a way to improve managing their expenses and make financial admin more efficient. They needed a solution that would support multiple currencies, make expense management effortless, and allow them to keep the right records.

Their problems were solved when they discovered Juni.

“We implemented the Juni Mastercard® Corporate card to help streamline our financial operations, with a focus on efficient expense management, thorough expense tracking, facilitating employee spending, and simplifying tax deduction claims,” says Paulina Lejarza, Marketing Executive at Carl Friedrik.

With Juni

Simplified financial processes

Juni has helped Carl Friedrik streamline their financial admin with an accounting integration to easily export transactions to their accounting software, saving them lots of time. 

Effortless expense management is the name of the game. Multi-currency accounts mean this global business can make payments in the correct currency without worrying about changing FX fees or complicated reconciliation.

“Juni has been extremely beneficial by simplifying our financial processes. Its support for multiple currencies ensures we can make payments in the billed currency effortlessly, and its seamless integration with accounting software streamlines our record-keeping,” says Paulina.

“Additionally, having individual cards for our team members has not only made it easier to manage expenses but has also significantly enhanced financial efficiency and transparency by aiding in receipt tracking.”

Quickly creating individual virtual cards has simplified expense management for the team at Carl Friedrik. Juni Receipt Matching, which pulls and matches media receipts from Gmail at the click of a button, has saved valuable time by reducing the need to chase receipts and ensuring they won’t miss any important spend.

“Juni puts all our subscriptions in one place, making it easy to track and manage our regular expenses,” says Paulina. “It also links receipts from our Gmail to expenses, which saves us time and keeps things clear.” 

The future

Continuing global growth

While Carl Friedrik continues to innovate and support customers across the globe, Juni will help simplify expense management and give them the financial insights they need to make the right decisions for their business.

“Juni has been a great addition to our work,” says Paulina. “It helps us handle our money better and make smarter choices.”
