Where to file expenses
Helixiora does not currently use one universal expense portal.
- If your setup runs through Deel, submit expenses there.
- Otherwise, use the email route that matches your contract form.
- If you are unsure which route applies to you, ask the People lead (Robin) before submitting.
For system ownership and routing, see Tools & Support.
Each claim should include:
- The itemized receipt
- The date of purchase
- The expense category
- A short business reason
- The relevant project or cost center, if applicable
What can be claimed
| Category | Rule |
|---|---|
| Business travel | Reimbursable with receipt |
| Client meals | Reimbursable when work-related and reasonable |
| Home office items | Pre-approval required |
| Software or subscriptions | Buy only after People or Technology lead approval |
| Personal purchases | Not reimbursable |
When in doubt, ask before spending rather than after.
How to submit an expense
- Use Deel or the email route that matches your contract form.
- Upload or attach the receipt within 10 calendar days.
- Choose the right category.
- Add the business reason in one sentence.
- Make sure the People lead or Technology lead is aware in advance if the cost is unusual, travel-related, or over EUR 200.
Reimbursement timing follows the normal payment cycle for your employment or contract setup.
Card payments and out-of-pocket costs
If the company issues a payment card, every transaction still needs a receipt and category in the expense route you use. Card usage removes the reimbursement step, but not the documentation requirement.
For out-of-pocket spending:
- Keep the original receipt.
- Submit the claim promptly.
- Use the correct VAT amount if your finance process requires it.
What slows reimbursement down
Most delays happen for predictable reasons:
- Missing receipts
- Vague descriptions like
meetingortravel - Wrong category selection
- No prior discussion for larger or unusual spend
Fast reimbursement depends on clean submissions, not finance chasing missing details.
