## The panel's verdict

Webexpenses, an expense-management product, earns its best scores on reimbursement and VAT, where scores cluster at 5-6: the help pages document per diems including a version calculated under the German Income Tax Act, with 24 Hours and Mid 12 types, breakfast, lunch and dinner deductions, arrival and departure flat rates, and country rates with validity dates. Approval and policy is uniform at 4, resting on a per-claim audit trail and a division-wide PDF policy. Receipt capture and cards and spend control cluster at 3-4: the only documented text-recognition fact is description-field OCR withdrawn for HMRC tax processes, and cards stop at adjustable per-card limits. The clearest split is within reimbursement and VAT, where the office manager scored 5 while the rest scored 6, because administrators set per-diem rates themselves and the Reimbursement + Pay module is named but never described. Sovereignty scores 0 — no public information on contracting entity, hosting or subprocessors — unproven, not disproven. Accounting export rests on one documented Microsoft Dynamics Business Central integration, with no public information on a DATEV interface; no pricing appears on the captured pages.

**Speaks for it:**
- Per-diem setup with a German Income Tax Act version, 24 Hours and Mid 12 types, meal deductions for breakfast, lunch and dinner, arrival and departure flat rates, and up to ten duration bands
- Every action on a claim, such as submitting or rejecting, writes a line to a per-claim audit trail preserving the claim details at that moment
- Expense cards are issued with an available spend limit set after issue and adjustable later
- A Microsoft Dynamics Business Central integration is documented with a downloadable user guide and settings for transferring claims
- An expense policy uploaded as a PDF is visible to all users within a division

**Held against it:**
- We found no public information on the contracting entity's jurisdiction, hosting location, subprocessors or a data processing agreement
- We found no public information on VAT rates captured per receipt, mileage allowances or how approved claims are paid out
- We found no public information on a DATEV interface, an API, webhooks or booking proposals with account and tax key
- We found no public information on card budgets, virtual cards, merchant-category limits or real-time notifications
- We found no public information on pricing of any kind, including tiers, per-user rates, card or currency fees

**Best for:**
- You reimburse travel under the German Income Tax Act and need per diems with 24 Hours and Mid 12 types, meal deductions and country-specific rates
- Your ERP is Microsoft Dynamics Business Central and you need claims transferred into it
- You need a who-did-what audit trail per claim for your auditor, with the claim's state at each action
- You issue expense cards to staff and need to set and adjust a spend limit on each card after issue

**Avoid if:**
- Your books are kept in DATEV — we found no public information on a DATEV interface
- You rely on VAT rates captured per receipt for the input-tax deduction — the documented tax depth rests on per diems
- Your procurement requires a documented contracting entity, hosting location and subprocessor chain before signature — the captured pages state none of these

## Scores by judge and criterion

Scores out of 5, each judge scoring independently against the published rubric (v1). "n/r" = not rated: the vendor publishes no price, or the judge found no public information on that criterion.

### The judges

- **The Travelling Employee** (v1.0): A sales engineer on the road three days a week, with hotel bills in three currencies and a glovebox full of parking tickets. Wants to photograph a receipt and be done, mileage and per diems worked out without a spreadsheet, a company card so private money is never spent, and the money back on the account within days rather than at the end of the quarter.
- **The Office Manager** (v1.0): Runs the office of a thirty-person agency and is the one who chases missing receipts every month. Wants a card for each project lead with a limit she sets, software subscriptions on their own virtual cards, receipts that arrive without reminders, an export the tax adviser accepts, and a monthly price she can work out before the trial ends.
- **The Controller** (v1.0): Owns the travel and expense policy of a manufacturer with four legal entities and twelve hundred staff. Wants approval chains by cost centre and amount, limits checked before a claim is submitted rather than after it is paid, duplicates and private spending caught, budgets that cards draw from, and an audit trail that shows who approved and changed what.
- **The Finance Lead** (v1.0): Closes the month for a hundred-and-fifty-person Mittelstand company and books card spend from three banks. Wants card statements that reconcile by themselves, booking proposals with account, tax key and cost centre, receipts that reach DATEV with the booking, reimbursements paid in one SEPA run, and nothing that has to be retyped.
- **The Tax Adviser** (v1.0): A Steuerberaterin whose clients send their expenses from five different tools. Wants per diems and mileage at the statutory rates, the input VAT read from a receipt that actually qualifies for the deduction, substitute receipts only where the law allows them, scanned originals archived GoBD-compliant, and bookings that arrive in DATEV with the receipt image attached.
- **The Skeptic** (v1.0): Has seen "no more expense reports" turn into a card programme with a currency fee on every hotel abroad and a per-user price that counts everyone who ever logged in. Reads "DATEV integration" that means a CSV, "AI receipt scanning" with no word on where the receipts are read, card terms that leave the issuer unnamed, and subprocessor lists that stop at the hosting provider — and asks what leaving would cost.
