Bizim Hesap vs Expensify

Bizim Hesap is a Turkish cloud pre-accounting service for small businesses, shopkeepers and sole traders. It replaces notebooks and spreadsheets with a simple web and mobile app for issuing invoices, tracking who owes what and seeing cash flow, and it is designed for business owners who are not accountants.

Users create sales and purchase invoices and issue e-invoices and e-archive invoices in line with the Turkish Revenue Administration (GİB) requirements. Customer and supplier accounts show balances and payment history; cash, bank and credit card accounts track money in and out; expenses can be recorded quickly; and stock tracking follows products and quantities. Reports summarize sales, collections, payables and profitability, and the business's accountant can be given access to review records and prepare filings. Pricing is a subscription in Turkish lira, typically billed annually, and changes periodically with inflation.

Bizim Hesap suits micro and small businesses that want straightforward invoicing and receivables tracking without the depth of an ERP. It is Turkey-specific, has fewer third-party integrations than larger rivals, and growing companies with complex inventory, production or multi-branch needs will outgrow it. Paraşüt is the best-known alternative with more integrations, Logo İşbaşı brings the backing of Logo Yazılım and a path to its ERP products, and KolayBi targets the same small-business segment.

The practical choice between these tools usually comes down to interface preference, the accountant's familiarity and the current lira price.

Expensify is an expense management app that turns receipts into expense reports, routes them for approval, reimburses employees and exports everything to accounting. David Barrett founded it in 2008, it is based in Portland, Oregon, and it has been listed on Nasdaq since 2021.

SmartScan reads receipts photographed on a phone, and the Expensify Card, a Visa commercial card, records transactions automatically. Approval rules, multi-level workflows, mileage and per diem tracking, travel booking and exports to QuickBooks, Xero, NetSuite and Sage Intacct round out the product. The newer app is built around chat. Plans: Submit is free for individuals, Collect costs $5 per member per month, and Control costs $18 per member on an annual subscription or $36 per active member pay-per-use; the annual price falls by up to half when spend runs through the Expensify Card.

Expensify fits small and mid-size companies that reimburse out-of-pocket spend and want simple pricing at the low end. Control pricing gets complicated, annual subscription sizes can only shrink at renewal, and the interface changes have frustrated long-time users. Ramp and Brex bundle corporate cards and expense tools at no per-user fee in the US, while QuickBooks covers basic receipt capture for firms already in its ecosystem.

Control pay-per-use bills only active members, meaning people who create, approve or pay expenses in a month, while new Collect workspaces bill every member added. On annual Control, put spend on the Expensify Card: the discount scales with the share of approved USD expenses paid on it.
