About PivotLynx
PivotLynx virtual Cards replace the customary checks and balances that happen after a credit card purchase in favor of a request and approval process ahead of the purchaser ever receiving a virtual Card.
1 | Employee Submits a QuickReq™
Card users request virtual Cards for approval using a PivotLynx QuickReq.
QuickReqs are pre-configured request templates for a variety of virtual Card uses. Employees may choose from a list of QuickReqs appropriate for their department, business unit, or cost center. Requests are routed to the appropriate manager. Approved virtual Cards are ready for use instantly within the policies of their use such as date range.
2 | Purchase Scenario Approved or Not
Managers review requests to verify funding is within budget and make the call to either approve or deny the request.
PivotLynx facilitates spend control within the virtual Card parameters itself, such as:
- Set an effective date range for when the virtual Card is valid for use
- Set the amount
- Restrict use to a specific Amazon Seller or Seller Category
3 | Purchases Aligned with Business Needs
Card users receive an email that their virtual Card has been issued and is ready for use on Amazon Business.
Card users have a virtual Card for each specific purchase scenario.
Remember our Facilities and Marketing teams?
The facilities employee has a virtual Card for each project so the purchases are 100% aligned right down to the project code. Critical for accounting.
And the director of marketing has a virtual Card for each event so the swag, brochure printing, and event banners all roll up onto the same virtual Card.
