Temporary Limit Increases on Budget Cards


Whether recurring or simply time bound, budget cards are issued with a set a limit. These limits can be temporarily increased manually by the administrator or automatically by a request for top up.

For administrators to temporarily increase a user set limit go to the Virtual Card menu on the Accounting area, select the budget card you wish to temporarily increase the limit and edit the card.

There, click change the temporary increase amount field and submit. As an administrator the increase will be automatically processed and the user will be notified immediately of the update. 

For users to request a temporary increase they can pick the budget card they wish to add value to on their web application or on their mobile phone and click request top up. The top up will be validated against the spend limit and budget controls and will be approved either automatically if it passes the controls or manually through the configured workflows if the request fails the controls.

Whichever way the increase gets processed a temporary increase resets at the renewal point.

You can monitor changes in the card value as well as purchases to multi-use cards by clicking on the card through the Approval History and Transaction History tabs.
