    Questions people ask

    What does the Payhawk connector do in Claude?

    Payhawk brings spend management into Claude. Ask about expenses, corporate cards, balances, budgets, suppliers and subscriptions in plain language and get a clear answer. Employees can submit expenses and reimbursements, snap in receipts and let them auto-match, log mileage, check card balances and limits, request new cards, and track where a payment or approval stands — all conversationally. Managers and approvers can see everything waiting on them, review an expense with its documents and policy context, and approve or return it without leaving Claude. Finance teams can close the month without hopping between screens: find close blockers, uncoded or unexported items, failed exports and missing documents; review and recode expenses; manage suppliers and purchase orders; monitor budgets, balances and upcoming payments; and ask analytical questions — spend by team, trends, anomalies — answered server-side by Payhawk's insights engine. Every action respects your organization's approval workflows, spend policies and roles. Writes are limited to what you could already do in the Payhawk app, and sensitive actions ask for confirmation before they run. Requires an active Payhawk account. Connect with your Payhawk login via OAuth — no API keys to manage. About Payhawk Payhawk is an AI-native spend management platform that orchestrates global money across Cards, Expenses, Travel, Accounts Payable and Procurement for maximum control, automation and savings. It provides a global money account on top of your ERP combined with agents enforcing rules, policies, and budgets on every payment while giving employees an effortless spending experience. Headquartered in London with offices across Europe and the US, Payhawk serves mid-market and enterprise companies in 33 countries.
