We’ve enabled the ability for your team member to now be able to verify their own online spend but you’ll continue to also receive the verify payment prompt until we’re able to launch our own Expenses app for your Team member. Please let your team member(s) approve their own online expenses whilst you continue to do what you do best.
You can revoke access from their Expense Cards team member profile at any time within the app. Go to Expense Cards > More where you will see a list of all your team members. Click into the name of the member who has left and you will then be able to revoke their access.
All of our Tide cards are Expense Cards so you’ll be able to use yours for this purpose as soon as you sign up and receive your first card.
The invite email that you send your team member is only valid for 48 hours.
You will have to re-send your team member an invite email. You can do this by going to your team member’s profile in the Team access app and selecting ‘re-send login link’
Unfortunately not. The way this works at the moment, you would need to edit your team members’ spending limit for one month and remember to change it back for the next month.
Simply open your Tide app, tap More > Expense Cards, and select the name of the team member whose limits you want to change. You can do this anytime and as many times as you like.
You can order company expense cards in the Tide app.
If your team member passes our security checks, the card will arrive at your trading address within a week.
Tide Expense Cards, our company expenses cards, are £5+VAT per calendar month. You’ll be charged £5+VAT per month for every Expense Card you’ve ordered (whether you activate it or not).
The fee is taken automatically from your Tide account on the fourth of each month.
Depending on your membership, you could get one or more Expense Cards for free. On Plus you’ll get 1 free, on Pro you’ll get 2 free and on Cashback or Premium, you’ll get 3 free.
Please see our Tide Terms for full details.
If you’re already with us, you’re eligible to apply. 🙂
You can order up to 50 Expense Cards per account.
If you have your Expense Cards linked to sub-accounts, these count towards the overall account maximum of 50.
If you have more than one Tide account, you can have a maximum of 50 Expense Cards for each account.
You can activate, manage and cancel your team’s expense cards in the Tide app. Go to More > Expense Cards
If you can’t see the Expense Cards feature, go to the app store and check your Tide app is up-to-date.
The main account holder manages all your company expense cards.
Tide Expense Cards are a step towards building full team access. For now, you’ll manage your Expense Cards through the Tide app belonging to the main account holder.
As the main user, you’ll fully manage access for your team – you can freeze and cancel cards, as well as share and hold PIN codes. And of course, you’ll be able to see who spent what.
The main account holder can freeze or unfreeze individual or all company expense cards.
When you cancel an expense Card, you’ll be charged £5+VAT per Expense Card on the 4th of the following month. Any Expense Cards ordered within the same month will be billed on the 4th of the following month (there will be no further payment after that). There’s no pro-rata fee refund when you cancel an Expense Card.
Remember, if you have Plus membership, 1 free Expense Card is included.
And if you have Cashback or Premium membership, 3 free Expense Cards are included.
Not yet. We’re working on an app that’s dedicated to your team members, so they’ll be able to log in and look at what they’re spending.
As the main user, you’ll be able to set different levels of access for your team members.
We’ll be in touch by email to let you know as soon as this feature is live.
