Personal and Corporate Karma

Expensify.org is built on creating a transparent and convenient way to create an emotional connection between donors, volunteers, and recipients. The funds for this organization come from Corporate Karma, Personal Karma, and monetary donations.

Expensify.org empowers individuals and communities to eliminate injustice around the world by making giving and volunteering more convenient, meaningful, and collaborative.


Personal Karma

Personal Karma allows individual users to automatically donate a small percentage of their monthly added expenses to Expensify.org.

For every $500 of expenses added, you’ll donate $1 to a related Expensify.org fund. All reported and unreported expenses, including invoice expenses, on the Expenses page are calculated to get the donation amount. Each month, Expensify will charge the billing card on file for the donation amount, and you’ll receive a donation receipt via email.

The fund from your Personal Karma is determined by the expense’s MCC (Merchant Category Code). Each MCC supports one of Expensify.org’s funds: Climate Justice, Food Security, Housing Equity, Reentry Services, and Youth Advocacy.

Corporate Karma

Corporate Karma is for companies that want to engage in social responsibility. Each month, the donation is calculated based on the total amount of all approved expense reports, including invoices, across all Workspace.
