Capabilities

What is in cards and spend management?

Corporate cards with Mercury

Autessa Accounting issues Mercury virtual cards and manages their limits, freezes, departments and cancellations, so every card charge is coded and counted against a budget.

Track cards from any bank

Autessa Accounting tracks cards from any bank: each one gets a department, a limit that is watched and alerted on, and statements that are coded like Mercury charges.

Agent cards for AI agents

Autessa Accounting agent cards are small, single-purpose cards with an owner, allowed merchants, a per-charge cap and an expiry date, checked on every charge.

Card requests and approvals

Anyone can request a card with a purpose, a paying department and a limit; approving it issues the Mercury card and denying it asks for a reason.
