Frequently asked questions

Explore our frequently asked questions about budget management to enhance your understanding.

What is long tail spend?

Long tail spend refers to low-value, high-volume transactions that are often unplanned and made outside of central procurement. While each purchase may be small, the combined impact is significant – both in cost and effort to manage.

Why is long tail spend hard to control?

Because it is often decentralised, spread across teams, and processed manually, long tail spend is difficult to track in real time. This leads to delayed reporting, oversights, and increased risk of non-compliance.

How does Soldo help manage long tail spend?

Soldo makes it easy for employees to access funds for ad hoc purchases within pre-set limits. Every transaction is tracked automatically, meaning finance teams get full visibility without needing to chase receipts or reconcile manually.

Can I set spending limits for long tail transactions?

Yes. With Soldo, you can apply granular card rules and approval workflows to ensure long tail purchases remain within budget and policy.

What tools does Soldo offer for reconciliation?

Soldo automates data capture, categorisation and integration with your accounting tools. This reduces the time spent chasing receipts and reconciling long tail purchases at month-end.
