Which one is for you
Pick Brex if
- Fits if you're a startup that wants cards and expenses with no software bill
- Works for developers who want an API on the free plan
Look elsewhere if
- Skip it if you need several expense policies or approval chains without paying $12 a user
- Pricey if your team buys a lot in foreign currencies, with an FX markup of up to 3% on card purchases
- Not for you if you only want some users on Premium, since everyone must be on the same plan
- Tight if you run more than two entities, as Essentials stops there and the rest needs Premium
- Watch out: the pricing page doesn't say whether Premium's $12 is billed monthly or yearly
Pick Jeeves if
- Fits if you want free virtual cards for up to 10 people and basic receipt capture
- Works for firms ready to pay Gold for card controls and bulk bill pay
Look elsewhere if
- Tight if you stay on Basic, as card controls, reimbursements, bulk bill pay and ERP links all need Gold
- Pricey if you are small, as Gold has a 10-user minimum and starts at $120 a month
- Watch out: the Gold card says $6 per user and the comparison table says $10, so confirm before signing
- Watch out: API integrations are listed at $3,500 with no billing period
- Skip it if you want a bank, as Jeeves says it is not one and cards come from partner banks

How this page was made
- The verdict at the top follows a fixed rule. When both tools are in the same category and either is in our top three for it, the verdict follows that ranking: the higher-placed tool is our pick. The top three weigh who each tool suits as well as its grades, so a pick can go against the GPA. Otherwise the page does not pick one and says which grades higher: the higher GPA first; on a tie, the one with a free plan, then the one that starts cheaper in dollars a month, counted the same way for both; if they are still level, what the choice depends on.
- The grades are our own, from each tool’s review or report card. The GPA is their average.
- Prices, plans and platforms come from each tool’s listing. The table above says where each price was read and when.
- The differences and the answers to the questions are worked out from those listings.
