For many growing businesses, petty cash may appear insignificant. Expenses like courier charges, snacks, office supplies, or small repairs are usually not top-of-mind when it comes to financial planning. Yet, the impact of all these little costs, dispersed across branches and staff, can be quite substantial. Recently, a survey was conducted for a sample of about 585 individuals. It shows that almost 53% of organisations consider petty cash management to be the biggest pain point. This was exactly the case at Centricity. With multiple branches handling recurring operating costs like rent, utilities, and small branch-level expenses independently, several issues began to emerge:
Manual reimbursement processes were slow and riddled with error
Missing receipts and verbal approvals created audit risks
Finance lacked real-time visibility across branches
Expense tracking was a monthly Sudoku Puzzle
Cash leakages and overspending went unchecked
Centricity partnered with Zaggle to implement BROME (Branch Recurring Operating Monthly Expenses), an exclusive platform built to manage recurring operating expenses like petty cash, rent, and utilities across multiple business locations.
Digital petty cash disbursement & real-time tracking
Automated dashboards and expense report
Centralised controls and budget limit
Streamlined approvals and audits
Faster rollout and adoption
The transformation was immediate and measurable. Centricity not only plugged operational leakages but also unlocked efficiency across teams. Here are some of the key outcomes:
Nearly 30% reduction in monthly operating spend
25% reduction in manpower required for petty cash processing
Approximately 20 hours saved each month on reconciliation work
30% of cash leakages eliminated
90% of petty cash expenses digitised and tracked in real time
Improved transparency and compliance across all branches
The results didn’t just help the finance team. They created a ripple effect throughout the organisation. Team members had clarity on what could be spent and how. Managers and Admins could track expenses without follow-ups. The audit trail became clean, digital, and real-time.
“Our partnership with Zaggle for petty cash management has been a game-changer for Centricity. Their platform has delivered exceptional efficiency and transparency to our day-to-day financial processes”
