Circula is the flexible spend management solution for German finance teams. The Berlin-based software combines all company spend in one modular platform: out-of-pocket expenses, travel costs, corporate credit cards, employee benefits, and accounts payable, built for the specific requirements of German tax law. Unlike global platforms, Circula was built from the ground up for the needs of German finance and accounting processes: GoBD-compliant workflows, native BMF per diem rates, and automatic three-month rule checks ensure that accounting receives clean, complete data. As a DATEV Premium Partner, Circula ensures that all expenses are correctly pre-assigned and handed over without any media discontinuity. Thanks to Circula AI, more than 54% of all expenses are export-ready the moment they're submitted, with no manual work required from accounting. More than 3,000 companies and 250,000 users rely on Circula to automate expense processes, reduce compliance risks, and take work off finance teams' plates. Circula was founded in 2017 and is headquartered in Berlin.

"Great platform but with some limit on the last month of employment"

3/5

What do you like best about Circula?

Great platform, intuitive, easy to onboard employees. Great customer support that helps super promptly and nicely. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Circula?

You can not see benefits registers in real time, you can just see them after the month is closed. Also, if you deactivate an user, it does not appear in that report. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Circula solving and how is that benefiting you?

Our main problem is managing this benefit when an employee leaves. We have no option to obtain the data at the moment he departures, we are also unable to deactivate the user because then it does not show in the report. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Functional and intuitive"

2.5/5

Clear, simple, intuitive interface. The approval process is straightforward and transparent. I can quickly get an overview of open and pending tasks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Circula?

With notifications via email, I don't know anything about the received process without having logged into the system. Probably intentional, but still a bit annoying. A comment function would be desirable when approving submissions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Circula is a great idea, but needs more updates towards the mobile app"

3/5

What do you like best about Circula?

Intuitive to use on the browser application on computer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Circula?

Very unintuitive to use on the smartphone webapp application. The dropdown UI is bad and covers all other fields and causes the selection screen to jump.

Also there are straight up features, which I could not find on the mobile app, e.g. selection of the per diems for reimbursement.

Lastly, the self scan function does not work properly for any receipt in Japanese. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Circula solving and how is that benefiting you?

It solves the issue of me sending an email or making an excel sheet every time I need reimbursement.

It creates pain by having an unintuitive smartphone web app. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
