Soldo

Soldo is a London and Rome-based business spending company that provides programmable prepaid Mastercard cards and an expense management platform for businesses needing to distribute spending power across teams, departments, or subsidiaries. Companies load funds onto Soldo and assign cards to employees with individual spending rules — category restrictions, single-transaction limits, merchant blocks — giving decentralized spending control with centralized oversight. The platform is particularly suited for businesses with distributed workforces including field sales teams, franchise operators, and multi-location businesses. Soldo integrates with accounting software including Xero and QuickBooks and provides real-time transaction feeds that dramatically reduce reconciliation time. Founded in 2014 with offices in London and Rome, Soldo raised over $180M from investors including Battery Ventures, Accel, and Silicon Valley Bank. The company serves over 30,000 businesses across Europe and competes with Pleo, Spendesk, and Payhawk in the European business spending market.
