Expense & Spend

Float

The Corporate Traveller and Float integration fixes that. Travel receipts from Melon bookings are automatically delivered to Float — your team's spend management platform — with no manual uploads, no forwarded emails, and no end-of-trip scramble. Expense reconciliation for travellers and finance teams becomes something that just happens.

Available in: Canada, United States

About the Integration 

The moment a booking is made in Melon, Corporate Traveller's booking platform, the receipt and invoice data flows directly into Float. No action required from travellers. It's just there. 

Finance teams get complete travel documentation in near real time — not three weeks later when someone finally submits their expenses. GL codes are automatically assigned and matched to the correct Float transaction. By the time a trip ends, the expense work is already done. 

Note: Only invoiced travel booked through Melon and paid with a Float card is included in the automated flow. Travel purchased outside Melon or paid directly to vendors is not captured automatically. 

 

About Float

Float is a Canadian-built spend management platform designed for small and mid-sized businesses. Corporate cards, expense tracking, bill payments, and real-time reporting — all in one place, built to fit the way Canadian finance teams actually work. 

Finance teams get full visibility into spend as it happens, automated receipt capture, and export-ready records that connect directly to accounting platforms including QuickBooks, Xero, and NetSuite. 

It's purpose-built for Canadian compliance. CAD-first, no workarounds required. 

 

 

Key Features

  • Automated Receipt Forwarding: Travel receipts and invoice data from Melon bookings are automatically delivered to Float. No manual uploads, no forwarded emails. Done. 
  • Automatic GL Code Assignment: Expenses are automatically coded to the correct GL category based on booking type — reducing manual data entry and the errors that come with it. 
  • Transaction Matching: Travel receipts automatically attach to the corresponding Float card transaction. Clean, matched records. Ready for reconciliation. 
  • Real-Time Spend Visibility: See exactly where travel budget is going as it's spent — not at month-end. Budget owners and finance teams get live oversight of every travel dollar. 
  • Export-Ready Records: Reconciled, coded, and audit-ready records export directly to QuickBooks, Xero, NetSuite, and other major accounting platforms. 
  • Faster Month-End Close: No more chasing receipts or cross-referencing statements. Complete travel documentation is in Float in near real time — which means close time shrinks from days to minutes. 

Use Cases

High-Volume Business Travellers: Frequent travellers no longer need to save paper receipts, snap photos, or forward booking confirmations. Every trip booked in Melon and paid with a Float card is automatically captured. Expense reports are complete before they even land.

Finance Team Efficiency: Accounting teams eliminate the month-end scramble. With receipts auto-matched and GL codes pre-assigned, reconciliation takes minutes — not days. And the data is audit ready from the start.

Budget Owners and Managers: Department heads and cost centre owners get real-time visibility into travel spend across their teams — enabling proactive cost control and policy compliance monitoring without waiting for end-of-period reports.

Getting Started

Good news: there's no new software to install and no technical setup required on your end. Corporate Traveller can activate the Float integration — setup is managed centrally, so individual travellers don't need to do a thing. 

Once enabled, all travel booked through Melon and paid with a Float card flows into Float automatically — receipts matched, coded, and ready for reconciliation.
