What is a business credit card?

A business credit card is a financial tool designed specifically for businesses. You can use it to make purchases on credit, track expenses, and build a separate credit history for your business. This helps manage cash flow, separate personal and business expenses, and often offers rewards or benefits tailored to your business needs.

How does a company credit card work?

A company credit card lets employees buy things for the business without submitting an expense claim or waiting for reimbursement. It's issued to employees, not the company, but the company has to pay the card bill. It makes buying things for the business easier and helps the company keep track of spending.

Why should I get a business credit card?

A business credit card makes managing your business money easier. It keeps your personal and business expenses separate, helps with cash flow, and builds a good credit history for your business. It also makes it simple to track spending, manage employee expenses, and comes with special rewards and benefits.

Can I use my personal credit card for business?

Yes, you can use your personal credit card for business expenses, but it's usually better to use a business credit card. Personal credit cards won't help your business build a good credit history, and they often have lower spending limits. Business credit cards come with special benefits and rewards for business owners. They can also offer features like connecting to accounting software, tracking employee spending, and virtual cards.

Frequently asked questions

Everything you need to know about business credit cards

Whilst the application process for a business credit card differs by provider, you can typically apply online, by phone, or by visiting a branch. You'll need to provide personal and business details such as your business's legal name, monthly turnover, and address. With Capital on Tap Business Credit Card, you can apply online in just 2 minutes, and most applicants receive an instant credit decision and virtual card access.

A personal guarantee is a legally binding agreement that holds you personally responsible for paying off your credit card debt - even on your business account. Most providers require a personal guarantee as business credit cards are unsecured.

The Capital on Tap Business Credit Card provides instant access to funds for approved applicants with virtual cards. The physical card arrives in the post two days later.

Yes, most business credit cards, including Capital on Tap, require a personal guarantee.

Small business credit cards have lower interest rates, higher credit limits, and more flexible terms than corporate cards. Small business credit cardholders earn rewards while corporate card rewards are earned by the business. The primary cardholder is liable for debt and fees on a business credit card, while the company is liable for corporate card expenses. Corporate cards require the balance to be paid in full each month, while business credit cards allow carrying a balance.

Yes, any size business can have a business credit card to make purchases, manage expenses, and pay bills. Small business owners can apply for a business credit card and enjoy benefits such as cashback rewards, exclusive discounts, and expense tracking features.

You must either own a business or work for a business that authorises you as a cardholder to qualify for a business credit card.

A personal guarantee is required for most business credit cards, so defaulting on a business credit card will make you personally liable for the debt and negatively impact your personal credit score.

Business credit scores range from 0 to 100, while personal credit scores range from 300 to 850. Lenders use various criteria to determine a good credit risk. A poor business credit score may still qualify for a business credit card with a personal guarantee if you have good personal credit.

Yes, business credit cards are an effective way to build credit for your business. These cards report activity to business credit reference agencies, helping establish a positive credit history and indicating the business is a good credit risk. Responsibly using the business credit card can also help improve the company's overall credit score. Finally, paying off the balance in full each month showcases financial responsibility and can boost the business's credit rating.

The APR (annual percentage rate) on a business credit card can vary depending on the card issuer and your creditworthiness. Generally, business credit cards tend to have higher APRs than personal credit cards. It's important to read the terms and conditions carefully before applying for a business credit card, and to pay off your balance in full each month to avoid high interest charges.

Yes. Add unlimited employee cards to your account and set individual spending limits on each card from the Cards page on your portal.

Business credit cards often come with some form of protection to help you if your purchase is faulty, broken, or never arrives. Your business credit card also protects you against any losses due to fraud, stolen or misuse of credit cards.

Use your Capital on Tap business credit card almost anywhere in the world without incurring foreign fees. 

We don’t apply any charges or commission on transactions above the base exchange rate. 

Yes, with your Capital on Tap employee credit cards, you maintain full visibility and spending control. You control how much each employee spends per billing period, or per single transaction.
