What came back
Subject: Expenses policy is changing to Pleo cards, effective October 1 Starting October 1, we're moving off the email-and-reimburse expenses process and onto Pleo cards. Why: right now everyone submits receipts by email to finance and waits about 3 weeks to get reimbursed. With Pleo, you get a company card, photograph the receipt in the app at the time of purchase, and there's no claim form and no wait, since the charge comes straight off the card instead of your own money. What's changing: - Everyone gets a Pleo card. Cards arrive the week of the 22nd, and there's a 20 minute session to set them up. - Spending limits: 500/month standard, 2000/month for managers. - Anything above your limit still needs pre-approval, same as now. Timeline: - The old email-to-finance process closes September 30. - Any expense from before September 30 still goes through the old process, email your receipts to finance as usual. - From October 1, all new expenses go through Pleo. More details on the setup session will follow. If you don't have a Pleo card by the week of the 22nd, contact [insert contact/team name].
When to use it
Use this for internal news that people need to actually absorb: a policy change, a new hire, a change to how the team is structured. It states what is changing, when, and what it means for the reader, without the corporate padding that makes people skim to the bottom looking for the point.
