For your security, Expense Cards will ship to you in an "inactive" state. This means that you cannot make transactions with an Expense Card until you activate it. Once you receive your Expense Card(s) in the mail, you must activate each card(s) before you can make a transaction with them. To activate an Expense Card, please follow the instructions below.

How do I activate a card?

Follow these steps to activate the card and begin using it:

  1. Go to My Money in the top navigation bar

  2. Click Expense Cards in the left-hand navigation bar

  3. Toggle the arrow in the left-hand navigation bar to expand the menu

  4. Select the Cards sub-menu

  5. Click the three dots on the right for the employee whose card you would like to activate

  6. Select Edit and change the Card Status to Active

  7. The card is now active and ready for use (assuming there are funds in the Expense Cards balance)

The first step in activating an Expense Card is to navigate to the 'Cards' page, select the three dots for the card you would like to activate, and select 'Edit'.
The next step in activating an Expense Card is to change the 'Card status' to 'Active', and then click 'Save'.
