The spend analytics section has been designed for you to get better insights into your spending patterns.

You can see a spend snapshot which shows you how you’ve been spending money over the course of the month, and a comparison with spends from the previous month. You can see the total spend amount and cashback earned as well.

You can filter the spends according to the type of transaction and see spends for previous months.

In the table below, you can see a breakdown of spends according to merchants, vendor, categories, people, department, project and location.
