Clara Global vs Rindegastos

Manage your team's expenses in any country and in any currency — and see where Rindegastos is the stronger choice, especially for statutory tax-document validation. Every Rindegastos cell cites its own published page, retrieved 11 September 2026.

Recommendation

Choose Clara Global when multi-currency reimbursement, finance-owned approval rules and payment-ready reporting are the priorities. Choose Rindegastos when validating tax documents against the SII, SUNAT or ARCA, or native ERP connectors, are hard requirements — those are the two axes where the products are not substitutes.

Side-by-side comparison

Rindegastos

Countries and currencies for reimbursement

Employees in any country, in any currency, inside the same account.

Its Starter plan includes “reimbursement in any currency (multi-currency)”. Maintains per-market sites for Chile, Argentina and Peru, among others.

Tax-document validation (SII, SUNAT, ARCA)

No. Clara Global works with any card and does not validate documents with the SII or any other authority; it only checks the format of tax identifiers.

States that it “automatically checks supplier and tax-document information in real time against the SII (Chile)”, and that this “ensures compliance with the tax regulations in force at the time of the expense report”.

Approval workflows

Conditions by amount, category, requester, role, currency and cumulative spend per month or quarter; multi-step chains; bulk approval; preview against the last 30 days before activating.

“Custom, unlimited approval flows” from Starter and “policy- and user-based review flows” in Corporate. On cumulative-spend conditions or rule preview: not stated on its site (retrieved 11-09-2026).

Exchange rate

Transaction-date rate, taken from a market feed and locked onto the expense at submission. With no rate for that currency and date, the expense reaches the report unconverted.

“Automatic exchange rate” from the Business plan: “automatically converts expenses made abroad into your country’s currency”. Which source feeds that rate, and when it is fixed, is not stated on its site (retrieved 11-09-2026).

How the employee is paid

No. Clara Global does not execute payments: it delivers an Excel (XLSX) report grouped by currency and destination account; your team transfers from its own bank and marks items paid, individually or in bulk.

Its Chilean site lists Rindepay among its products, alongside Firma Digital, Concil-IA and the Programa Contadores. How payment to the employee is executed is not stated on its site (retrieved 11-09-2026).

Multi-entity and holdings

Multi-entity from the Pro plan; Free works with a single company. Each entity keeps its own rules and its own approvers.

“Multiple companies” in the Corporate plan: “access different company accounts from the platform with a single user”. The Enterprise plan is “designed for large companies or holdings”.

Receipt capture

OCR and automatic categorisation, with WhatsApp submission on every plan (Free is subject to the monthly quota). No native app: responsive web, in six languages.

From Starter: “automatic document scanning with AI (Scanit 2.0)”, “Android and iOS mobile app”, “expense upload from WhatsApp”, “expense upload via email” and “intelligent virtual assistant (RIA)”.

AI after the expense lands

Policy Agent, which turns your policy text into rules, from Pro; per-expense policy verdicts; fraud triage with seven detectors plus LLM review, suggested rules with backtesting, and expense narratives, in Enterprise.

Agents per plan: “Agente Rendidor” and “Agente de Conciliación” in Corporate; “Agente Revisor*”, “Agente Financiero*” and “Agente Auditor*” — the last of which “detects unusual behaviour and fraud risk” — in Enterprise, with the note “*additional costs apply for contracting these services”.

Integrations and API

No. No ERP integrations and no public API. Delivers the payment-report Excel workbook, CSV expense export, and an append-only audit log with 47 event types.

“We integrate natively with the main ERPs (Softland, Defontana, Manager) and connect to any accounting system you need via API.” The Corporate plan lists “API access for integrations”.

Pricing and trial

Self-serve signup with a Free plan — one company and a monthly expense quota — and Pro and Enterprise plans above it. OAuth single sign-on on every plan, without SCIM.

Per-user monthly pricing in UF: Starter “UF 0.05 user/month”, Business “UF 0.1”, Corporate “UF 0.2”, Enterprise “contact us”. “We have a 14-day free trial”, “no credit card · 14 days free · cancel anytime”.

Frequently asked questions

What is the main difference between Clara Global and Rindegastos?

Rindegastos is built around local tax-document validation (SII in Chile, SUNAT in Peru, ARCA in Argentina) and native ERP connectors; Clara Global is built around cross-border, multi-currency reimbursement, finance-owned approval rules and a payment-ready report. If validating tax documents against a national registry is a hard requirement, Rindegastos is the stronger choice; if the problem is reimbursing employees in any country and currency under rules your finance team can change, Clara Global is.

Does Clara Global validate invoices against the SII?

No. Clara Global works with any card and does not validate documents with the SII, SUNAT, ARCA or any other authority; it only checks the format of tax identifiers. If your auditor expects the system to have verified the document against the tax registry, that requirement filters the shortlist before anything else.

Which exchange rate does Clara Global apply, and when is it fixed?

The transaction-date rate, fetched automatically from a market feed and locked onto the expense at submission, so the amount an approver validates is the amount that reaches the reimbursement report. If the feed publishes no rate for that currency and date, the expense is not blocked: it reaches the report unconverted, in its own currency.

How is the employee paid?

Clara Global does not execute payments. It delivers an Excel (XLSX) payment report grouped by currency and destination account; your team transfers from its own bank and marks expenses paid, individually or in bulk.

Does it work for a holding with several companies?

Yes, from the Pro plan; the Free plan is limited to one company. Each entity keeps its own rules and its own approvers.

Can expenses be submitted by WhatsApp?

Yes. WhatsApp submission and OCR with automatic categorisation are available on every plan; the Free plan is subject to its monthly expense quota. There is no native app — the mobile experience is responsive web, plus WhatsApp.

How much does it cost to get started with each?

Clara Global has self-serve signup with a Free plan (one company, monthly expense quota) and Pro and Enterprise plans above it. Rindegastos publishes per-user monthly pricing in UF (Starter UF 0.05, Business UF 0.1, Corporate UF 0.2; Enterprise “contact us”) and a 14-day free trial. Compare the plan each capability requires, not just the entry price.

Does Clara Global integrate with our ERP?

Not today: there are no ERP connectors and no public API. The bridge is the payment-report Excel workbook, CSV expense exports and an append-only audit log with 47 event types. Rindegastos names native integrations with Softland, Defontana and Manager, plus API access in its Corporate plan.
