As a budget owner or admin, you can create a virtual card associated with a budget. Budget owners create a vendor card associated with any budget where they are an owner.

Vendor card transactions can use any available funds that have been allocated to the budget they are created from. They can be assigned to any budget member and are visible to any members of that budget. Their spend limit can either be capped at the amount of available funds in a budget or capped at a specific number set when the card is created. Learn how to delete a virtual card.

The steps in this article apply to budget owners and admins. Learn how budget members create virtual member cards.
