Spend requests allow users to submit a request for a vendor card or temporary user limit increase on their corporate cards; admins can approve, deny, or modify these requests.

Setting up spend requests

Admins can set up spend requests for their company by navigating to the Expenses tab and clicking Requests. You’ll be asked to select a primary approver for these requests.

You can change the approver at any time in the future by going to Expenses > Manage settings. Next to Approval rules, click Edit to set a new approver.

Set up / edit primary approver

Admins can set up or edit the primary approver by going to Settings > Expenses > Approval rules > Edit.
