Our Mission To enable businesses around the world to reduce costs and increase profits in all areas of business to business (B2B) payments including accounts payable (AP), travel, and fleet fuel.

Our Story Corporate Spending Innovations (CSI) was founded in 1989. Initially, in the U.S., Brazil, and throughout Latin America, CSI was known for its fleet and corporate management payment products. These products have evolved over the years; along with a shared commitment to controlling efficiencies and streamlining domestic and international corporate payment methods. In 1993, the company became the first U.S. fleet management company in Mexico, Argentina, Chile, and Brazil with asset management services that soon followed in China, South Africa, Puerto Rico, and Canada. The first product launch took place in 2001 with global-fleet®, a fleet fuel card that allowed companies with fleet vehicles to better control and manage their fuel spending. The ability to actualize the same level of spending control across business operations by automating the accounts payable process was identified in short order. CSI was among the first payment providers to embrace virtual card technology in 2008, ultimately introducing the globalVCard electronic accounts payable platform in 2011. In 2013, globalVCard Travel was launched, employing secure virtual credit card payments to air and hotel reservations while simultaneously addressing common corporate travel booking challenges such as lost hotel authorization forms and unapproved traveler spending.

Our Story
Corporate Spending Innovations (CSI) was founded in 1989. Initially, in the U.S., Brazil, and throughout Latin America, CSI was known for its fleet and corporate management payment products. These products have evolved over the years; along with a shared commitment to controlling efficiencies and streamlining domestic and international corporate payment methods. In 1993, the company became the first U.S. fleet management company in Mexico, Argentina, Chile, and Brazil with asset management services that soon followed in China, South Africa, Puerto Rico, and Canada.
The first product launch took place in 2001 with global-fleet®, a fleet fuel card that allowed companies with fleet vehicles to better control and manage their fuel spending. The ability to actualize the same level of spending control across business operations by automating the accounts payable process was identified in short order.
CSI was among the first payment providers to embrace virtual card technology in 2008, ultimately introducing the globalVCard electronic accounts payable platform in 2011.
In 2013, globalVCard Travel was launched, employing secure virtual credit card payments to air and hotel reservations while simultaneously addressing common corporate travel booking challenges such as lost hotel authorization forms and unapproved traveler spending. A travel-focused mobile app was also developed to provide real-time control and visibility into traveler spending.
CSI has continued to evolve and innovate over the years and currently provides fully integrated global B2B payments, invoice-to-payment, and accounts payable automation in addition to corporate travel payments, APIs, fleet fuel cards, and mobile capabilities.
CSI has further extended its reach into the FinTech community by collaborating with forward-thinking entrepreneurs to facilitate innovation and success. The company launched CSI Kick Start in 2016, which provides funding and an offsite incubator environment where promising FinTech startups can find the resources and tools needed to thrive.
CSI also believes that true success is measured not only by profits but also in our ability to help those in need. With this community focus, CSI incepted the Power2Change Foundation in 2016, which brings partners, charities, and youth leadership together. The 2 in the name of the Power2Change represents the 2 basis points (BPS) donated every year by CSI from the revenue earned on payment transactions.

“In addition to the ease and security of the virtual card program, we don’t have to pay people to stand at the fax machine all day. CSI’s virtual card program is the one we’ll
be recommending to all of our clients.”MacNair Travel - Mark Weston, Corporate Travel Director
CsitRavelA world where every trip leads to secure payments, automated
reconciliations, and fully accountable travelers.
We bring the most important elements of travel payments together on one platform and apply our proprietary solutions to address common travel booking concerns.
VIRTUAL CARDSEach reservation for air, hotel, and car is booked and paid for in the exact amount of the reservation with a unique virtual card number that becomes invalid after each transaction, making it highly secure and easy to reconcile.
CORPORATE PURCHASING CARDSFor travel and entertainment expenses that require plastic, we also have purchasing cards with complete and real-time spending controls that let you restrict or block usage through our platform’s interface. It’s also a great solution for fleet management, offering fuel discounts while ensuring no unapproved extras are charged. One card number per employee means reconciliations stay simple.
MOBILE APPTravelers can easily access all reservation data through their mobile device, get directions, book an Uber, and check the weather. Authorization forms are automatically sent or can be resent right from the app at check-in, which means a lot less hassle for you, and authorized travelers can create and request virtual cards on the fly.
