Coupa & Amazon Business: Helping Find Saving Opportunities
Coupa, the margin multiplier company, has welcomed Amazon Business to the Coupa Advantage Program to deliver significant cost savings on thousands of highly used products as part of Coupa Advantage.
The programme offers streamlined access to millions of goods from Coupa's trusted suppliers at pre-negotiated rates, helping finance and procurement leaders quickly identify savings opportunities, improve spend visibility and efficiency and eliminate maverick spending.
Delivering greater savings to all
Coupa Advantage brings the scale and buying power of the Coupa Community together to provide a turnkey marketplace that delivers greater savings to all. With the addition of Amazon Business, Coupa Advantage customers in the US now have access to discounts on a selection of thousands of Amazon Business' products, plus a 50% discount on Business Prime plans for a 12-month period.
Coupa Advantage customers in the US, Canada, France, Italy, Germany, Spain and the UK will also receive a 50% discount on one year of Amazon Business Prime as part of this collaboration.
"At Amazon Business, we have both a supplier relationship with Coupa for our mutual customers, while many of our own employees use their platform every day – so we know first-hand the true value of Coupa," says Mobeen Khan, Director, Global Partnerships and Business Development, Amazon Business.
"We are excited to continue our strategic relationship and to collaborate to help our customers achieve their purchasing goals, streamline the buying experience and unlock even more value."
Seamless purchasing experience
Working first with Coupa as an Open Buy partner in 2017, Amazon Business offers a seamless purchasing experience within the Coupa platform and integrates the back-office benefits of Coupa into the Amazon shopping experience. Together, the companies simplify business buying and provide the right tools for organisations to take proactive, end-to-end control of their spend.
"From the start, our collaboration with Amazon Business has proven to be a dynamic success and welcoming them to the Coupa Advantage Program is a natural next step in our journey," adds Greg Harbor, Coupa Chief Partner Officer.
"We recognise how valuable this addition can be for our Coupa Community. At a time where businesses are challenged to do more with less, we are working together to deliver the cost savings, control and operational efficiencies that our customers need most."
Trusted suppliers with pre-negotiated rates
Coupa Advantage helps more than 1,200 customers identify out-of-the-box savings. With the recent launch of the Coupa Advantage Marketplace, Coupa customers can gain quick access to a wide range of goods from trusted suppliers with pre-negotiated rates for millions of goods to maximise savings.
"With Coupa, we've transformed our operations by streamlining processes that empowered our team to work and spend more efficiently and effectively," says Cheryl Ponzeka, SVP, Accounting and Financial Operations at Veterinary Emergency Group.
"This allowed us to expand rapidly, opening multiple new locations without significantly increasing headcount, while driving substantial revenue growth.
"Migrating to Coupa brought many benefits, including the integration with Amazon Business, and we're thrilled by the growing partnership. It provided complete real-time visibility to our purchasing activities, helping us monitor risk and compliance, while optimising our spending power."
