Q Meridian · Travel & expense
Coming soon
Corporate travel and expenses, connected to your cards.
Q Meridian is the planned corporate travel and financial-operations layer for modern businesses — bringing bookings, approvals, receipts, VAT and spend reporting into one connected experience alongside Q Global.
Important information
Q Meridian is a planned platform in development. Features described here are the intended product scope and remain subject to design, partner and regulatory readiness before launch.
Corporate travel
Flight and accommodation search and booking, itineraries and traveller profiles
Approval workflows
Pre-travel approval and expenditure authorisation rules
Payment integration
Eligible Q Global Gold and Platinum instruments for travel bookings
Receipts & VAT
Digital receipt capture, invoice retention and VAT records for accounting
Employee controls
Spending permissions, departmental restrictions and approval hierarchies
Reporting & reconciliation
Travel costs, expenditure categories and booking-to-transaction reconciliation
The intended journey
From travel policy to reconciled spend.
- 01A company establishes its corporate travel policy.
- 02Employees or administrators arrange travel through Q Meridian.
- 03Applicable approval rules are applied before booking.
- 04An eligible Q Global payment instrument is used for the booking.
- 05Booking and payment information is associated with the employee or department.
- 06Receipts and supporting invoices are retained.
- 07Expenditure is reflected in reporting and reconciliation workflows.
On the horizon
A dedicated travel expenditure facility.
A further concept under exploration is a purpose-specific travel expenditure facility for approved corporate customers — a restricted arrangement for qualifying travel spend, potentially integrated with Q Meridian and operating alongside a customer's Gold or Platinum proposition.
Availability, limits and structure would depend on the issuing programme, underwriting arrangements and applicable lending, payment-services and financial-promotion requirements. It is a customer-level product concept, not a facility offered by AnswerQuay.
Q Meridian is designed to support compatible external payment cards and providers where authorised, as well as Q Global cards, with policy controls and corporate oversight built into the experience.
