Eagl and Payhawk partner to connect spend management and the month-end close
Samuel Van Innis · · 4 min read Key Takeaways
- Eagl and Payhawk are partnering across go-to-market and product to connect spend management with the month-end close.
- Payhawk controls spending before transactions reach the ERP; Eagl validates, reconciles, and monitors them once they land, so issues surface in real time instead of at close.
- Shared customers get one connected flow: earlier error detection, automated reconciliation and accruals, lighter audit prep, and a faster, more accurate close.
- Both platforms are built for multi-entity teams, so the connected flow holds up as transaction volume and entity count grow.
A new partnership connects Payhawk’s spend platform with Eagl’s close automation, giving multi-entity finance teams one continuous flow from spend to close, with far less manual work along the way.
Eagl and Payhawk are partnering across product and go-to-market to connect corporate spend with the close. For most finance teams these are two separate systems, so every month-end starts by cleaning up data before the real work can begin. Together, Payhawk and Eagl remove that gap. Spend is captured and coded as it happens, and the close runs automatically on top of it.
The two products cover different parts of the same problem. Payhawk handles spend as it comes in: invoices, payments, card transactions, and expenses across entities. Eagl automates what comes next: reconciliation, transaction matching, accrual management, and close management, keeping the numbers accurate as it works.

What this means for finance teams
Most close delays do not come from a lack of effort. They come from messy source data. When spend lives in one system and the close happens in another, finance teams spend the first days of close cleaning and re-keying before any real work starts.
This partnership removes that gap. Payhawk structures spend data at the source. Eagl pulls it into the close, where its agents reconcile, match transactions, and manage accruals as the period runs.
Shared customers can:
- Stay in control of spending before it reaches the ERP
- Catch errors and duplicate entries early, not at month-end
- Flag wrong VAT and tax codes before they reach the close, with corrections proposed automatically
- Reconcile and match transactions automatically once data lands in the ERP
- Manage accruals without manual spreadsheet work
- Cut audit prep with a clear, traceable trail from spend to close
- Free the finance team from late-night checking to focus on analysis
For multi-entity teams the effect compounds. Both platforms are built for finance teams running several legal entities at scale, so the connected flow holds up as transaction volume and entity count grow.
This reflects how Eagl approaches automation. Automation only works on accurate data. Connecting a strong spend platform to the close means the data layer and the close layer work together, not in sequence.
Working together beyond the product
The two teams will also work together beyond the integration. We will host joint webinars, take part in shared events, and share what we learn from working with the same finance teams. The aim is to help more teams connect spend management and the close.

From the leadership
Payhawk gives finance teams control over spending, but the real game-changer for our shared customers is what happens next. Eagl validates and reconciles every transaction continuously, so teams catch issues in real time and close their books weeks faster. Eagl genuinely moves the needle on the financial close.
Jochem van Overbeek, Partnership Manager Benelux, Payhawk
Most financial closes start by cleaning up source data. Payhawk captures and codes spend before it reaches your ERP. Eagl then automates the close on top of that, and because it keeps the data accurate as it works, that automation actually holds up. For our customers that means far less manual work at month-end and a close they can rely on. It brings us closer to our vision for finance: a continuous close.
