Integrations

💳 Pliant Integration - Mobilexpense Cards Ingestion

The Pliant integration is here! This major step forward in MXP makes it easier than ever to keep your spending under control. Users can now enjoy real-time capturing of Pliant Visa card transactions into MXP, paired with a reliable and user-friendly experience designed with mobility at its core.

This release also includes major improvements delivered over the past quarter, ensuring a smooth and reliable flow of transactions from Pliant Visa cards into MXP, all powered by a mobile-first experience.

How it works

The integration ensures that every Pliant transaction is seamlessly ingested into MXP in real-time as purchases are made. Imagine buying your morning coffee—right after swiping your Pliant card, SpendCatcher immediately sends you a notification about the transaction. It then prompts you to snap a photo of your receipt, allowing you to manage your expense without delays or complications.

What's new in this release

To enhance performance and usability, we’ve made several key improvements to the integration:

1. Optimised transaction handling:
  • Duplicate prevention: This means if the same transaction data is sent more than once—due to system retries, connectivity issues, or other reasons—the integration intelligently detects the duplicate and prevents it from being entered into the system. This enhancement ensures clean and accurate expense data.
2. Enhanced push notifications:
  • Migrated to the new FCM (Firebase Cloud Messaging) API, improving the reliability of notifications when transactions are ingested. For instance, notifications are now delivered more consistently, even if devices are offline or when the app is open on multiple devices.
3. Refined user experience:
  • Improved the activation page by displaying the Pliant organisation name instead of an ID, making the interface more intuitive.
  • Resolved bugs such as decimal display issues in notification texts, ensuring clearer communication with users.

The benefits

This release delivers tangible benefits to both end users and administrators, including: 

  • Real-time expense tracking with instant notifications.
  • Improved reliability of transaction ingestion and notifications.
  • Enhanced usability with intuitive displays and fewer errors.
  • Seamless cross-database integration, ensuring all entities can leverage the power of Pliant without hiccups.

Why it matters

By addressing critical bugs, improving functionality, and refining the user experience, this release reflects our commitment to providing a robust, seamless, and user-friendly expense management solution. The enhanced Pliant integration for MXP ensures that managing expenses is not only easier but also more efficient and reliable for companies and their employees.
