Access Lifecare supports NDIS participants through in-home support services and community care houses. The organisation employs support workers and office staff to perform their day-to-day activities.
Staff and support workers would use credit cards to manage expenses, bringing about a few operational issues, such as:
With Budgetly’s prepaid corporate card and expense management solution, Access Lifecare significantly reduced chasing receipts, improved expense visibility, and saved up to 3 days a month on administrative tasks.
Budgetly supplied the organisation with 36 prepaid corporate cards, and access to the Budgetly expense management software usable on a laptop, desktop, and mobile app. The organisation opted for an annual card and software subscription, saving $480 a year with Budgetly.
Using the distinct and easily-recognisable Budgetly cards, staff can capture a photo of their receipt and upload it into the Budgetly app, which takes only 5 seconds.
Example of the Budgetly app
Staff can also add transaction notes, assign the expense into categories, and select the appropriate budget and tags for the transaction. The app and software automatically reconcile all transactions with key information such as vendor name and transaction amounts pre-recorded. This feature eliminates the need for finance teams to chase staff for receipts and verify expense information.

Besides that, finance teams can also view all transactions in real-time, which gives them better visibility and control over company expenses. They can also enjoy user-friendly functions such as:
Example of Budgetly’s system
Access Lifecare has eliminated its admin-heavy process and now saves up to 3 days a month in expense management. Using Budgetly’s prepaid corporate card, the company has resolved its most significant problem - chasing receipts.
“The biggest issue for us was definitely chasing receipts. Given the problems we had with receipts beforehand, choosing Budgetly was an easy choice. Now, the overall process is much easier and has saved me roughly a day and a half each fortnight.”
Jeanne Tarrant, Accounts & Administration Manager.
Budgetly’s prepaid corporate cards have also helped finance staff save time and focus on higher-value tasks.
“If we were still chasing receipts, we’d be incredibly time-poor. Our teams are already working long days to get through our normal workload, so this has meant we can focus our time on more important things within the business.”
Jeanne Tarrant, Accounts & Administration Manager.
Since using Budgetly for almost a year, Jeanne would recommend Budgetly to other NDIS service providers.
“Budgetly is great and has definitely solved our initial problems. We use Budgetly’s cards for our managers, houses and even some participants. Also, Budgetly is easy to use and gives us visibility and control over the whole process. It allows us to put the responsibility back on staff regarding receipts while we maintain control over general spending.”
Jeanne Tarrant, Accounts & Administration Manager.
And how would Jeanne rate the support she’s received from Budgetly?
“10/10, the customer service and support have been great, and we loved the level of support while we got up and running. The personalised videos and training have also been excellent!”
Jeanne Tarrant, Accounts & Administration Manager.
