iplicit and Pleo partner to enhance expense management for UK&I mid-market

Pleo and iplicit announce a strategic partnership bringing smart corporate cards and automated spend management to UK & Ireland mid-market finance teams. Expense data syncs into iplicit in real time via Pleo Embedded, with full visibility and control.

LONDON, 7th MAY 2026 – Pleo, Europe's most trusted strategic finance platform, today announces a strategic partnership with iplicit, the leading cloud accounting platform purpose-built for the UK and Ireland's mid-market, bringing smart corporate cards and automated spend management to mid-market finance teams via Pleo Embedded.
Integration work is underway and will enable organisations to sync expense data into iplicit's cloud-native accounting software in real time, extending iplicit's existing expense management capabilities with smart corporate cards, advanced controls and AI-powered spend optimisation recommendations powered by Pleo.
The integration addresses a critical gap for mid-market organisations whose fragmented tool stacks create data silos, delayed visibility and operational inefficiency. With data flowing in real time from point of capture through to reporting, customers get a single, continuously updated view of their financial position. Pleo's physical and virtual smart cards also remove the need for finance to chase every payment and receipt, while maintaining full visibility and control.
Ben Crow, VP Partnerships at iplicit: "With over 70 channel and technology partners, our ecosystem grows in direct response to what mid-market finance teams tell us they need. Specialist expense management has been a consistent ask from teams with complex needs who want a single, connected view of their spending. Pleo has exactly the kind of best-in-breed technology that allows us to expand what iplicit can do. The UK's mid-market deserves software that keeps pace with it - that's what partnerships like this deliver."
Kunal Galav, VP Pleo Embedded: "Expectations around financial visibility are only moving in one direction. iplicit's move to integrate Pleo Embedded gives its customers improved control and awareness of business spend, while iplicit benefits from new revenue streams and a closer customer relationship - all without additional build."
