What is a Reimbursement?

A reimbursement is money paid back to an employee for a work-related expense they covered themselves — travel, accommodation, meals, mileage and similar out-of-pocket costs. Without automation, that means manual keying, slow approvals and claims that pile up instead of clearing on time. Rabpe helps businesses streamline reimbursements by connecting receipt capture, policy checks, approvals and payout into one digitised flow. Employees get paid faster, and finance gets a consistent, auditable process instead of a paper trail.

Three steps

How reimbursements work

Snap it, submit it, get paid.

  1. 1

    Upload the receipt

    Open “Add expense”, snap or attach the receipt, and let OCR fill in the details.

  2. 2

    Submit for approval

    The claim routes to the right manager, checked against policy on the way.

  3. 3

    Track the status

    See every claim and its status in the Expenses tab, right through to payout.

End to end

A digitised flow from claim to payout

Checking, approvals, invoice generation and submission run automatically, so a claim moves at the speed of a tap instead of a paper trail — and nothing gets keyed in twice.

  • Automated policy checks at submission
  • Routing to the correct approver
  • Invoice and voucher generated for you
  • Payout to the employee’s bank account

OCR built in

Scan a receipt, skip the data entry

OCR reads the vendor, amount, GST and date straight off the receipt, so employees don’t type it and finance doesn’t re-check it.

  • Auto-extract vendor, amount, GST and date
  • Works on photos, PDFs and email-ins
  • Matches the receipt to the card transaction
  • Flags duplicates and missing receipts

Approve from chat

Clear claims from WhatsApp, no login needed

Managers get the claim in WhatsApp with the receipt and policy context, and approve or reject in one tap without opening the dashboard.

  • Approve or reject inside WhatsApp
  • Receipt and policy notes attached
  • Bulk-clear a queue at once
  • Every action logged for audit

  • Live view of pending and paid claims
  • Spend by employee, team and category

  • Nothing waits until month-end to surface
