Updated over 2 weeks ago

Which countries can request virtual cards?

We can only provide virtual cards to companies incorporated in Singapore.

Which Sources of Funds Can Be Used to Create Virtual Cards?

You can create Aspire Virtual Cards by selecting your Aspire SGD, USD, or Advance Limit account (if any) as the source of funds. At this time, the Aspire EUR and GBP accounts are not yet supported.

Creating a Virtual Card

Admin users have the ability to create their own cards without any approval needed.

On the other hand, Finance and Employee users must obtain approval from the Admin/Budget Owner before their card is created.

Note: For security reasons, you can only view the details of a card that has been assigned to you. Please note that even Admin users are unable to access card details of other users.

Admin users

  1. Ensure the person you are creating a card for is a user of the Aspire account. If they're not yet a user in the Aspire, you may follow the steps by steps in this article to add them as a user.

  2. On your Aspire dashboard, click "Cards" in the left navigation bar (web app) or click "Menu" and choose "Cards" (mobile app).

  3. Click the blue button "➕ new card" located on the top right-hand side

  4. Select which user the card is for

  5. Click on "Confirm"

The new card is now created and will be shown at the top of your cards section

Finance and Employee users

  1. On your Aspire dashboard, click "Cards" in the left navigation bar (web app) or click "Menu" and choose "Cards" (mobile app).

  2. Click on "Request a card" at the top right-hand side

  3. Click "Request a card"

Your request will now go to the Admin of the account for approval, or if you selected a budget, it will go to the Budget Owners for approval.
