Business Prepaid Cards
Similar to a debit card, business prepaid cards limit your spend to the amount loaded on your card. Since no line of credit is included, there’s no flexibility on your spend.
Often used to manage expenses, businesses can control and track employee spending through these cards.
Prepaid cards typically do not offer features such as rewards programmes or the ability to build credit history.

If you become a Preloading customer with us, any funds that take your account into credit will be treated as E-Money and be subject to the safeguarding requirements set out in the Electronic Money Regulations. We are authorised as an E-Money Institution with the FCA.
Capital on Tap is not a bank and your funds are not protected in the same way that a bank would protect your funds. Instead we place these funds into a separate bank account that protects your money and allows its safe return to you in the event that Capital on Tap becomes insolvent or otherwise closes down.
Business Prepaid Cards
When you load money onto a business prepaid card, the card company must keep those funds separate from their own accounts in protected bank accounts. However, that money is often not insured by the government like funds in a regular bank.
While card issuers follow regulations to safeguard your prepaid funds and keep them segregated, there is still a small risk of issues accessing that money or potential loss if the company faces insolvency. Understanding each provider's specific fund protection policies before loading significant amounts is recommended.
Prepaid card purchases are not covered by section 75 of the consumer credit act either, so they offer less protection when compared to credit card purchases.
