Manage Your Emburse Cards Funding Source and Balance in Emburse Spend

Manage Your Emburse Cards Funding Source and Balance in Emburse Spend

Emburse Spend Admins may establish a single card funding source for Emburse Cards and manage their Emburse Cards funding balance directly within Emburse Spend.

This feature only supports the primary funding source; we do not support multiple funding sources at this time.

You will need to ensure that you have already connected your Emburse Card program before you start to add an Emburse Card Funding Account. See Connecting a Corporate Card Program for details.

If you have ACH Fraud Protection enabled on your account, it is crucial to give your bank the following ACH IDs. These IDs will ensure that Emburse Cards are approved to withdraw or deposit funds from your bank account. By providing these codes to your bank, you can avoid any transfer failures caused by Emburse Cards not being authorized to complete transactions.

Add an Emburse Card Funding Account

Once you have connected your Emburse Card program, and provided the ACH whitelist IDs to your bank, follow these steps to add an Emburse Cards funding source in Spend.

  1. Click + Add Emburse Card Funding Account on the Admin dashboard

  2. Link a bank account that will fund any Emburse Card expenses, and verify the funding source. Admins verifying a funding account will be required to manually initiate a few micro-deposits before they are able to start transferring funds.

    Instant Verification can be handled via Plaid depending on the funding account’s origin.

  3. Manually Manage Transfers to fund Cards.

Once the bank account is verified and a transfer of funds is initiated, you may begin issuing Emburse Cards in Emburse Spend.

View and Manage Your Emburse Cards Funding Balance

On the Bank Accounts screen in Company Settings, you can view your Card Funding bank account and your Reimbursement bank account.

How long until funds are available?

Transfers typically take between 0.5 to 1 full business day to transfer. If the transfer is made before 1 PM PT, it will be transferred into the account around 5 PM PT that same day (except Fridays, where they will be transferred in on Sunday or Monday depending on when you transferred it on Friday).

Transfer Schedule

Please see this chart below for when funds can be available if you have a Visa account. The times are in PT.

The table maps each hour (0–23 PT) by day of the week to the 5 PM PT delivery window when transferred funds become available. As a text equivalent of the table: a transfer initiated before 1 PM PT on a business day becomes available at 5 PM PT that same day; a transfer initiated at or after 1 PM PT becomes available at 5 PM PT on the next business day; and a transfer initiated on Friday after the cutoff becomes available on Sunday or Monday, depending on the time it was initiated.

Banking Holidays

Emburse Cards do not process transfers on banking holidays. Transfers will be delayed one business day.

Example:

Memorial Day: Transfer is made at 10AM PT. Instead of processing at today 5PM PT, it will process tomorrow (Tuesday) at 5PM PT.

As a text equivalent of the holiday tables below: in a week with a Monday banking holiday, each affected delivery window shifts one business day later than the standard schedule; the same one-business-day shift applies in a week with a Thursday banking holiday.
