Chase missing Brex receipts before the books close

Every morning, WebRun opens Brex, lists the card transactions still missing a receipt or a memo, drafts a short text to each cardholder in Twilio and leaves it queued for you to release, then books a catch-up block in Google Calendar whenever the unreceipted pile crosses your threshold.

In short

How do I chase missing corporate card receipts automatically?

WebRun checks Brex every morning for card transactions still missing a receipt or memo, grouped by cardholder with amounts and ages. It drafts one reminder text per person in Twilio for you to release, and books a catch-up block in Google Calendar when the backlog crosses your threshold, so month-end close is not a scramble.

  • Receipts get chased daily instead of in a month-end panic
  • Each cardholder gets one grouped reminder, not one per transaction
  • You know the size and age of the unreceipted pile every morning

Questions, answered

Will it text my team without me?

No. Every reminder is drafted and left queued in Twilio for you to review and release. WebRun never sends a message on its own and never contacts a merchant or vendor.

Does it change anything in Brex?

No. WebRun reads transactions only. It never recategorizes spend, approves an expense, dismisses a receipt requirement, or moves money, so your ledger stays exactly as your team left it.

How often does one person get chased?

At most once every three days. WebRun groups all of a cardholder's outstanding items into one message and skips anyone already reminded inside that window.

Put this on autopilot.
