## Before you migrate off Expensify

Migrating off Expensify is mostly a data and habits problem, not a technical one. Export your expense history and category mappings first — accounting integrations (QuickBooks, Xero, NetSuite, Sage Intacct) exist on all mainstream alternatives, so the chart of accounts carries over. The two things to re-validate: card feeds (if you used the Expensify Card, replacing its interchange discount changes your effective subscription cost) and any custom policy rules, which rarely map one-to-one. Run one overlap month where both systems process expenses before cutting over.
