Creating a virtual Apron Card is quick and can be done directly through the mobile app or browser app. Here's everything you need to know to get one set up for your team.
How to create a virtual card
Go to Cards in the mobile app or Expenses > Cards in the browser app, then choose Create card.
Choose the card type – select Virtual card. For other card types, see: Create a merchant Apron Card and Order and activate your physical Apron Card.
Select the cardholder – choose from the list of people linked to your company in Apron. If someone isn't showing up in the list, you can add them by tapping the Add member button.
Before someone can be selected as a cardholder
They must have their name added to Apron, and the name must meet card requirements. For example, it shouldn't:
Exceed 40 characters
Include special characters
Include non-Latin letters
The name can be updated in the browser app.
Label the card
Give the card a label so it's easy to recognise later, such as the cardholder's name or what it'll be used for. We'll pre-fill this for you in the app, but you can change it if needed.
Once everything's set, choose Create card and your virtual card's ready to go.
After the card is created
The new card will appear in the list of company cards in the mobile app and under the Cards section in the browser app.
Only the cardholder can view the full card details – card number, expiry date and CVC – needed for online payments.
The cardholder can also add the card to Apple Pay or Google Pay from the mobile app.
Your card is ready to use as soon as you top up your Apron Wallet.
