AffiniPay, a firm focused on legal practice management software, integrated payments, and embedded fintech solutions for professionals, announced the early access launch of MyCase Smart Spend, powered by the LawPay Visa Business Card, the credit card to integrate with legal practice management software for streamlined spend management.
The MyCase Smart Spend product has been “in private beta access since October of 2024.”
With Smart Spend, expense tracking and client billing work together in one platform, “ensuring firms recover all their advanced costs.”
MyCase Smart Spend comes at a pivotal moment for the legal industry, as according to the 2025 AffiniPay Legal Industry Report, “55% of law firms report expense tracking as a challenge.”
As firms are turning to technology to improve their firm operations, providers like AffiniPay continue to provide “solutions that improve efficiency and simplify financial management.”
Smart Spend empowers law firms to track and bill expenses by “integrating a LawPay Visa Business Card with client billing, invoicing, and bookkeeping in MyCase.”
It’s reportedly the “only” credit card that integrates with practice management “to improve expense billing accuracy and operational transparency.”
Dru Armstrong, CEO of AffiniPay said:
“We are excited to officially bring MyCase Smart Spend, the first and only spend management tool designed for the unique needs of SMB law firms, to the market. My father was an attorney who struggled with the finances behind his firm. A tool like Smart Spend could have helped his firm operate with larger transparency and financial peace of mind. We are thrilled to partner with Marqeta, Visa, and Emprise Bank to bring this offering to our customers.”
Marqeta is a global modern card issuing platform that enables embedded finance capabilities and is said to be “a trusted platform for building card programs that are dynamic, flexible and tailored to customer needs.”
By partnering with Marqeta, MyCase Smart Spend users will “have access to real-time card issuing, transaction data, and spend controls for their credit card offering to help stay on top of business expenses and access capital more easily.”
Todd Pollak, Chief Revenue Officer, Marqeta said:
“Law firms need an efficient way to reconcile their business expenses. Marqeta’s all-in-one platform enables innovative companies like AffiniPay to offer an embedded credit card that streamlines how firms manage their expenses, making it simpler to track spending and grow their business as a result. We’re proud to work with AffiniPay to power their MyCase Smart Spend product, creating new opportunities for business growth among their customer base.”
As noted in the update, AffiniPay is a key player focused on practice management software and online payments for professionals “serving legal, accounting, architectural, engineering, and construction firms.”
Each of its brands reportedly leads the market that it currently serves with solutions “purpose-built by industry including LawPay, MyCase, CASEpeer, Docketwise, CPACharge, and AffiniPay for Associations.”
AffiniPay’s solutions are said to be trusted by “more than 245,000 legal & accounting professionals with more than 150 strategic partnerships and endorsements, including the American Bar Association and the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants.”
