After making funds available to your cards, you may choose to apply specific limits or rules to further control the spending on the card.

Soldo cards empower individuals or teams to make business payments wherever and whenever they need to. This includes travel and entertainment (T&E) costs, digital advertising, office supplies, and everything in between. You can set bespoke limits, rules and budgets for each card individually, suiting each user, and aligning with your procurement policy.

How to set card spending limits

Note: If you are on an Unlimited plan, you can benefit from our bulk card rules feature, enabling you to establish spending limits on multiple cards at once, without navigating through each individual card. You can find out more here.
Note: These steps will describe how to set card spending limits and withdrawal limits for your chose card.

Spending limits

1. From the left-side menu, select Cards.

After adding funds to a card’s wallet, you can apply spending limits to control how much can be spent using that card. Limits can be tailored for each card, giving you control without needing to micro-manage every transaction.

What are spending limits?

Spending limits define the maximum amount that can be spent within a certain period. They help you manage budgets, avoid overspending, and align card usage with your company’s spend policy.

You can apply the following types of spending limits:

  • Monthly - cap total spend per month
  • Weekly - limit spend per week
  • Daily - restrict daily spend
  • Per transaction - set a maximum spend per payment

You can combine multiple limits on the same card. For example, apply a monthly limit of £1,000, a weekly limit of £300, a daily limit of £100, and a per-transaction limit of £50. This gives you maximum control over how your funds are used.

Limits can be updated at any time and changes are applied instantly.

Tip: Unlimited plan customers: Use our bulk card rules feature to apply spending limits to multiple cards at once.

How to set spending limits

  5. Click on Add limit.

Set Cash withdrawal limits (plastic cards only)

If you're using plastic cards and want to control ATM withdrawals, you can apply specific withdrawal limits but you must first enable cash withdrawals for the card.

Note: Withdrawal limits only apply to plastic cards. To enable them, the Cash withdrawals card rule must be turned on.
  1. Enable the Cash withdrawals rule for the card.
  2. Once enabled, select Withdrawal limits.
  3. Click Add limit.
  4. Choose your limit type: Monthly, Weekly, or Daily.
  5. Enter an amount and select Save.

Like spend limits, you can apply multiple withdrawal limits on the same card and edit them at any time.
