## Reviews

### "Good service for your money." — 4.0/5

> **Sergii** | *26 March 2026* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I found it a very convenient tool for managing a corporate card, it's easy to manage and retrieve information. It's natively clear how to add pushed invoices or get the necessary numbers.
> 
> **Cons**: The Mac OS app looks like a copy of the phone app. Most likely, it is. And if you have it installed, it is impossible to open banking page in the browser. That is, getting your internal email address for quick invoice sending becomes simply impossible if Mac OS is your only operating system.
> 
> I like it 90% of the time as long as I don't have to manually add invoices. I had to strain a little to figure out where to find that email.

### "Great Experience" — 5.0/5

> **Dafydd** | *26 March 2026* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The ease of issuing and managing cards, combined with real-time visibility on spending, makes it very efficient. It removes a lot of the manual work from expense tracking and approvals.
> 
> **Cons**: It works well for day-to-day spend management, but lacks depth in reporting and custom workflows compared to more mature finance platforms.
> 
> A smooth and efficient experience overall. It simplifies spend management and gives clear visibility across the business.

### "Pliant usage report" — 4.0/5

> **Alexandra** | *26 March 2026* | Leisure, Travel & Tourism | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: its easy to use, simple and secured. The system is convenient, having your own card here at the agency is more interesting
> 
> **Cons**: I like the least that we have to provide proof of payments.and that when we make a payment sometimes the total payment is broken down (especially for airplane seats, a total payment of €100 at once is charged but afterwards we have to justify 4x€25)
> 
> I use it a lot for agency payments, it's fast. The payment is instant, which allows us not to waste time when we are with the client

### "Quick and easy" — 5.0/5

> **Magdalena** | *26 March 2026* | Hospitality | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: A very user-friendly program that prioritizes payment security. Plus, everything is easy to use. I highly recommend it for companies that process a lot of payments.
> 
> **Cons**: The inability to generate a transaction confirmation for the bank/customer—this poses a problem in the event of a complaint.
> 
> For managing business travel, this is a very user-friendly program—and, above all, a secure one. All your payments in one place.

### "Quickly payment" — 5.0/5

> **Maciej** | *26 March 2026* | Consumer Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The best thing is how quickly we can create new cards. It's very helpful when we have to make reservation fast. Also, we have many options, few currencies ;)
> 
> **Cons**: What did you like least about Pliant? It's difficult to find any cons :) Maybe, this - We cannot pay by Pliant in a couple of hotels. I don't know the reason.
