Finance

Sting gives Finance teams the ability to prevent unbudgeted spend before transactions are processed.

It’s browser-based, zero-telemetry, and on-premises — allowing organizations to maintain tighter control over departmental spending without relying only on post-transaction reviews.

The Problem for Finance Teams

Employees frequently sign up for new SaaS tools and subscriptions using corporate cards or P-Cards, creating surprise charges that are difficult to identify and even harder to cancel. By the time Finance sees these on statements, the money has already left the account and budget controls have been bypassed.

How Sting helps

Sting intercepts credit card entry and payment attempts on unauthorized checkout pages before the transaction completes. It can block the payment or require it to route through approved procurement and PO workflows. You also gain the exact URL tied to each attempt, eliminating much of the manual investigation work.

Outcomes

  • Stop unbudgeted SaaS spend at the source instead of chasing it afterward

  • Maintain stronger PO and budget discipline across the organization

  • Reduce time spent investigating unknown vendors and surprise subscriptions

  • Improve visibility into attempted rogue spending
