Infographic: Concur and Starbucks partnership allows effortless expensing and rewards for travelers

Concur, provider of spend management solutions and services for travelers, has published an e-receipt solution in theConcur App Centerfor business travelers making purchases at Starbucks.

Transaction data from over 27 million Concur users shows that Starbucks is both the #1 expensed restaurant and location for out-of-office business meetings. While more than one-third of all Starbucks transactions are now made with a Starbucks Card (including those using Starbucks mobile apps), Concur users were previously unable to easily earn Starbucks Rewards™ Stars for business-related purchases.

With this new collaboration, users can now have their receipts automatically sent to Concur’s expense reporting system while earning Stars towards free food or beverage items.

“Our data shows Concur users hold more than 10,000 meetings a month at Starbucks,” said Barry Padgett, chief product officer at Concur, in a statement. “This feature allows them to take advantage of easy expensing while paying at Starbucks, plus they’ll see their transactions appear in Concur mobile in near real time. Another great example of how Concur’s App Center ecosystem delivers the best of the new digital economy to business travelers.”
