Connect Rippling to Expensify to automate expense policy assignment, approval routing, and employee provisioning — so reimbursements are governed by live org data without manual configuration.
The Rippling–Expensify integration connects Rippling's employee and org data to Expensify's expense management platform. Expense policies are assigned automatically based on Rippling department and job level, and approval routing follows Rippling's manager hierarchy — so expense reports go to the right approver without manual configuration.
When new employees join, they're added to Expensify with the correct policy. When they leave, their Expensify access is deactivated as part of Rippling's offboarding workflow. For companies running Rippling payroll, approved reimbursements can also be pushed through Rippling's payroll module.
The most common Expensify configuration gap is approval routing. Teams connect Rippling to Expensify for employee sync but don't configure expense policies and approval chains to use Rippling's manager hierarchy. The result is that expense reports route to default approvers rather than the correct managers, creating bottlenecks and manual corrections.
thePeopleStack configures the Rippling–Expensify integration with employee sync, expense policy mapping based on Rippling department and job level, and approval routing aligned to Rippling's manager hierarchy. For clients who also use a Rippling-connected accounting system, we ensure the Expensify–GL export is configured for a complete payroll-to-reimbursement-to-journal-entry workflow.

For Canadian employees, thePeopleStack configures Expensify to correctly separate CAD and USD expense reports and ensures that any CRA-compliant reimbursement rules are reflected in the Expensify policy connected to the Rippling integration.
Yes. Expensify has a native Rippling integration that syncs employee data — including name, email, department, and manager — to Expensify for automatic policy assignment and approval routing. When employees are terminated in Rippling, their Expensify access can be deactivated as part of the offboarding workflow.
Rippling department and job level data maps to Expensify policy assignments, determining which expense policy each employee is subject to. Manager hierarchy from Rippling drives the approval routing — so expense reports automatically route to the correct approver based on the employee's Rippling manager.
Yes. Expensify supports accounting system integrations with QuickBooks, Xero, NetSuite, and Sage Intacct. thePeopleStack can configure both the Rippling–Expensify integration and the Expensify–accounting system integration in the same engagement for a complete expense-to-GL workflow.
When a termination is processed in Rippling, the Expensify account can be deactivated as part of the offboarding workflow — preventing expense submissions from former employees and releasing the license seat.
Standard configuration takes 1–3 hours, including employee sync, policy assignment, and approval routing setup. If you also need the Expensify–accounting system connection configured, add additional time for that integration.
