  • A business credit card is a credit card assigned to your business rather than an individual. It offers a revolving credit line and a monthly credit limit that can be used to pay off your company expenses. It's a convenient solution when a business needs to quickly access additional funds for short-term needs or increase its purchasing power. Business credit cards often come with extra benefits for you and your company like business rewards, supplementary cards for employees or accounting software integration.
