With Happay-HDFC Bank prepaid cards and Happay mobile app in their pockets, business travelers will be able to easily seek trip advances, get trip itineraries pre-approved by management, do trip bookings and file trip expenses digitally and on the move.
Management, on the other hand, will be able to manage employee cards online – from loading and withdrawing funds from cards, setting card limits, activating and deactivating cards. They will also be able to pre-authorise trip itineraries, track travel expenditure as it happens, approve travel claims, implement travel policies and view travel spend analytics from a single, cloud-based platform.
Prior to this initiative, HDFC Bank and Happay had joined hands in 2016 to help businesses go cashless and have seen huge success till date. One of their solutions, Happay-HDFC Bank Fleet Xpress program launched in 2016 November, enabled 1000+ transport and trucking companies to move to digitization, post demonetization. HDFC Bank’s wide reach, huge customer network and strong brand name, played a key role in enabling Happay to scale up its efforts towards helping businesses go digital.
Mr. Parag Rao, Country Head – Card payment products, merchant acquiring and marketing, HDFC Bank, quotes, “Our partnership with Happay has been very encouraging so far. With the new T&E solution, we hope to see even better response from our enterprise customers. Together with Happay, our aim is to completely reinvent the way Indian corporates manage their business payments. With Happay’s powerful and unique technology, data analytics and highly configurable platform, we hope to continue to strengthen our market position and provide enhanced value to our corporate customers,”
Anshul Rai, Co-Founder & CEO, Happay, “When we rolled out Happay’s B2B solution in 2015, our mission was to accelerate the pace of innovation and digitization in the B2B payment industry. HDFC Bank gave us the opportunity to scale up fast in a short period of time. Their strong brand name and relationship with corporate customers helped us overcome the challenges we faced with some companies skeptical of exploring digital and cloud-based solutions. The success we saw is testimony to the resilient and scalable infrastructure we have built. We hope to continue to offer greater business value with our new offering,”
