I provide cards to our driver as they’re needed. We can easily change these and provide virtual cards where needed which has solved the problems I had around flexibility. I have saved at least a couple of days a month in admin with with Budgetly.
Duncan, Director Black Sheep Trading
10/10 customer service, we've loved using it.
Greg, Director John McGrath Auto Group
I have had a few minor issues with the App so far - declined card (which seemed to be a problem for a large proportion of their clients at the time) which happened at the most inopportune time. My phone app showed that I was not affiliated with any accounts (subsequently having access to no money to draw upon). Both my account managers and the help desk showed that I was. Help desk was prompt in helping with the problem.

Frequently asked questions
What is expense management software for transport businesses?
Expense management software for transport businesses automates the tracking, approval and reconciliation of operational expenses — including fuel purchases, toll fees, maintenance, driver allowances, and fleet-related costs. Budgetly’s expense management software is purpose-built for transport and logistics companies, helping fleet managers and finance teams gain real-time visibility, automate reporting, and maintain tighter control over all spend categories.
Why should transport businesses use specialised expense management software instead of generic tools or spreadsheets?
Transport operations involve complex and recurring expenses from multiple routes, drivers, and depots. Generic tools or spreadsheets can’t provide the real-time visibility and automation needed to manage these moving parts efficiently. With Budgetly’s transport-focused platform, you get:
- Real-time expense tracking across all drivers, routes, and branches.
- Budget allocation by fleet, route, or cost centre.
- Automated workflows and integrations, including with corporate cards and accounting platforms.
- Easy mobile receipt capture and reconciliation via the expense tracking app.
These features minimise administrative work, reduce overspending, and improve financial accuracy for transport operations of any scale.

The best expense management software for Australian transport businesses should support AUD transactions, integrate with local accounting systems, and provide real-time insights into fleet and operational expenses. Budgetly meets all these requirements and more:
- Seamless Xero integration for automatic transaction syncing.
- Real-time spend visibility across vehicles, drivers, and depots.
- Physical and virtual cards for controlled and secure spending.
- Expense categorisation to monitor key cost areas such as fuel, maintenance, and logistics support.
As an Australian-based solution, Budgetly ensures compliance with local GST and reporting standards, making it a leading choice for transport operators seeking smarter expense control.
How can Budgetly improve decision-making for my transport business?
Budgetly centralises all spend data—from driver cards, invoices, reimbursements, and budgets—into one unified platform. With this real-time visibility, your finance and operations teams can:
- Monitor overspending or budget variances by route, driver, or vehicle type.
- Identify high-cost areas such as fuel inefficiency or maintenance frequency.
- Reallocate funds based on data-driven insights.
- Speed up reconciliation and reporting through accounting automation tools.
With these insights, transport business owners can make more informed decisions, streamline cash flow, and boost profitability through smarter expense control.
