Transaction Authorization Controls

The Visa Purchasing Card Program empowers program administrators to maintain control of company spending without having to manually approve each transaction.

On a cardholder by cardholder basis, daily or monthly transaction authorization limits and pre-set spending limits can be set.

Card use can be limited to specific merchant categories, and companies may choose to block certain merchant types all together. For example, many programs allow restrictions to prevent card use at casinos and jewellers.

Transaction authorization controls are established when the card is requested, and the card is delivered with the controls already in place. The program administrator can easily change the restrictions as required to reflect changes in corporate policy or cardholder’s responsibility.
