What We Do
Center is transforming spend management with a more configurable, extensible, and intelligent, solution. Our goal is to help companies make the most out of every dollar and hour spent so they can keep growing into profitable, thriving businesses. We are passionate about the transformative power of forward-looking technology and real-time data. Center is headquartered in Bellevue, WA, and has an office in Minneapolis, MN.
We believe spend management should empower teams to do more and go further, not hold you back. We’ve experienced first-hand how smart corporate spending can fast-track strategic growth and success. And we’ve seen what’s possible when teams have the information they need at just the right time and the tools to take action. We know all this because we’ve dedicated our careers to thinking about it. Our founders shaped the first wave of spend management innovation, and they knew so much more was possible.
Center’s offering is a connected corporate card, expense management, and integrated travel solution that brings real-time visibility into all employee spending, streamlines expensing from swipe through reconciliation, and gives finance the controls and insights needed for optimal decision making—keeping teams agile to do more, dream more, and be more.
Why Work With Us
Not only will you never have to fill out another expense report, you'll free others from the same, as well as finance teams from outdated/inefficient processes. At Center, we challenge ourselves to reimagine what’s possible in the field of spend management, an area that is foundational to every company and ripe for innovation. Come build with us.
