We love Brex and wish we could replace all bank products with Brex products. > > **Cons**: Nothing that I can think of really. I have used commercial cards for decades and nothing comes to mind on this. ----- ### "Easiest Expense Management" — 4.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *1 April 2023* | Consumer Goods | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: Brex does not require a personal guarantee from founders to obtain a credit card, which can be beneficial for startups and companies with limited credit history. The ability to create multiple digital cards is super convenient for contract employees. You can also set a spending limit and have full visibility of the spending for each active card, right from the dashboard. > > **Cons**: The credit limit is variable which is at times good but the way it is calculated is opaque and leaves you guessing how much you have available to spend. It certainly cannot be your only form of payment, you need to have a backup payment method ready especially when you are traveling. ----- ### "Great Bonuses...terrible company...stereotypical Silicon Valley Trash (Wework, Thernos, etc.)" — 1.0/5 > **Joe** | *26 July 2021* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10 > > **Pros**: They offer a lot of promotions through to their customer, which are quite high in value. Unfortuntely they do not always honor these promotions. It's also nice to have virtual and physical corporate cards that can easily be created and destroyed in a friendly UI. > > **Cons**: TERRIBLE accounting software integration. They have several integrations that work but they insist on creating a backend authenticated connection instead of a direct feed. They do this so that they can have access to ALL of your financial data without making that clear or transparent during the integration process. If you read their terms and conditions carefully as you attempt to integrate your accounting software, you'll notice what I am talking about. They are a very agressive sales-oriented fintech company. They offer promotions and bonuses with impressively high value, but Brex has been known not to honor many of these promotions (just google "PayPal Brex Promotion scam"). I have unfortuntely experienced this multiple times. Brex is basically the fintech version of WeWork. Brex is a LARGE team of marketing and sales people trying to promote various technology services (good services, I admit) via massive bonuses and promotions. They then offer virtual cards (like privacy.com) and expense management like so many other fintech services. They use their massive bonuses and promotions to lure in new customers and then collect all of their customer's spending data by having the customers integrate accounting software while giving up total privileges to Brex (see my first paragraph in this section) and using Brex cards to make all of their business purchases. This is no different than Square issuing the Cash App card to track consumer spending via "Boost" promos. > > If you are a small startup and want free stuff (Twilio credit, WeWork credit, etc.), Brex is great. You get free goodies and free bonuses that can help you boostrap on the cheap. If you are a legitimate busienss that has real revenue with real employees, I would advise you to stay away. If you are successful enough to be at this point, the bonuses aren't worth the tradeoffs. Do you want to give Brex 100% visibility into your company finances in exchange for a few goodies and miles/points? That tradeoff is not worth it at all for legitimate business in my opinion, but to each is own. Brex makes their money (and valuation) solely on the data they collect from their customers (financial data - expenses, income, spending habits, etc.). They use a a hyper agressive marketing and sales team to accomplish this. They are not transparent, they frequently do not honor their bonuses when they go over budget and forget to remove it from the site, and their privacy terms (and accounting software integration permissions) are ludicrous if you take the time to read them. I value transparency and honesty in our business partnerships and Brex is not a brand I would associate those two words with. They are the stereotypical Silicon Valley company backed by large VCs, run by pedigreed 20 year olds, that are out to aquire users at all costs so they can IPO in a few years and make the VCs (and their LPS) rich along with the founders. No thanks. ----- ### "The right way to do a business card" — 5.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *27 April 2022* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Great visibility of spend, card management and team management are fantastic. Could never go back to a conventional bank issued card. > > **Cons**: Credit limit fluctuates with cash in bank. For startups this can make available credit less predictable than is ideal. ----- ### "Brex fixed a long-due mess that was our company expense reporting" — 5.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *1 December 2022* | Retail | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Brex banking with disposable cards helped our expense reporting and controls more efficiently and automated. We diminished in over 90% the amount of missing invoices from departments invoices and automated a lot of payment workflows. > > **Cons**: Nothing to complain about. Probably just have the option to allow mark invoices as lost instead of getting eternal nagging from notifications. ----- Page: 1 / 7\ Next: [Next page](https://www.getapp.com.au/software/121499/brex?page=2) ## Links - [View on GetApp](https://www.getapp.com.au/software/121499/brex) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | ----- ## Structured Data
