Instead of asking job candidates, employees, volunteers, or consultants to use their own funds to book travel, pay for meals, or cover other expenses, send them a virtual business card or pre-loaded business debit card with a budget and policy-based restrictions built-in.

Watch this one minute video to learn how Emburse Cards works.

A verifiable business and business banking information are required to use Emburse Cards. This information includes a legal business name, physical company address, and an active legally recognized business status.

Once your account is created, Emburse will verify this information. The verification process can take several days to complete.

Federal regulations require Emburse, on behalf of our card processor and bank partner, to collect, verify, and record information about the key person(s) who own or control the legal entity of your business. The disclosure of this information helps FinCEN, a bureau of the United States Department of the Treasury, and law enforcement fight financial crimes.

The identity of one individual with significant managerial control must be verified in order to create cards and fund the account. Verification is done using name, personal address, National Insurance Number or UTR, and date of birth. No correspondence is sent to the individual's personal address. This information is only used to verify the individual's identity.

All that is required for any Emburse cardholder or non-administrator is a name and email. A phone number can also be added to receive instant notifications for receipt capture after a transaction is completed.

Emburse Cards is a free platform that your organisation can use to create as many virtual and physical cards as you need for an unlimited number of users. For information on international transaction fees - please see the Emburse Card Program Agreement.

Emburse Cards can be used anywhere MasterCard is accepted. Banks reserve the right to limit or block the use of the Card in foreign countries due to fraud or security concerns or to comply with applicable law.

Emburse Cards may not be used at ATMs, for cashback transactions, online gambling, and other restricted activities.

By using Emburse, you agree to abide by a set of rules and regulations. Emburse understands that the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of our customers' information is vital. We use a multi-layered approach to protect that key information, constantly monitoring and improving our applications, systems, and processes to meet the growing demands and challenges of the market.
