Brex products and platform reference
The product surface splits into two halves: the cards that move money out of the business, and the platform that decides, records and reconciles that movement. This hub maps both and links to a dedicated reference page for each.
How to read this hub
Product marketing usually presents a platform as a single object. For research purposes it is more useful to separate it into three layers: the instrument (the card or payment method), the control layer (policy, limits, approvals) and the record layer (receipts, coding, reconciliation, export).
Nearly every question people ask about this category — “what type of card is it”, “can I set limits per employee”, “does it close the books faster” — is really a question about one of those three layers. Each page below states which layer it belongs to and links across to the others.
Card products
Three primary card references plus the two issuance formats underneath them. Naming variants such as “brex credit card” are covered inside the page they belong to rather than on a page of their own.
Platform products
Seven pages covering everything that happens before and after a card is tapped.
The three-layer model we use throughout the site
Instrument, control, record. Keeping them separate makes it far easier to work out whether a problem is a product gap or a process gap — and whether a new tool would actually fix it.
A company that cannot close its books on time rarely has a card problem. It usually has a record-layer problem: receipts arrive late, coding is inconsistent, and the export into the ledger needs manual repair every month.
- Instrument — physical cards, virtual cards, employee cards, transfers and vendor payments.
- Control — policy, per-card limits, merchant category rules, approval chains and budgets.
- Record — receipts, memos, coding, cost centres, reconciliation and ledger export.
Frequently asked questions
It covers the product areas people research most and that can be documented reliably from public sources. Providers add, rename and retire features regularly, so treat this as a structural map rather than a live catalogue, and confirm the current line-up on the official website.
Because most of those phrases describe the same subject. “Business card”, “corporate card”, “business credit card” and “corporate credit card” are used interchangeably in everyday speech, so we document each phrase inside the reference page that genuinely covers it rather than splitting one topic across six near-identical pages.
No. Pricing, fees, interchange arrangements and rewards structures change frequently and vary by programme and region. We explain the shape of a pricing model rather than quoting numbers that would be wrong within a quarter.
