New: Coupa Card
Virtual cards with advanced capabilities. Coupa Card unlocks end-to-end payments, credit approval, tap-to-pay, and more within one system.
Optimize Payments With Coupa Virtual Cards
Maximize the benefits of credit card spend and optimize working capital with virtual credit cards for businesses — removing the inefficiencies and risks of physical cards. And now, achieve next-level control and compliance with the new Coupa Card.
Save time & money with Virtual Cards
Replace time-consuming payment processes
Take control of long tail spend and eliminate one-time supplier onboarding by paying suppliers with virtual cards. Reduce invoice processing volume and manual processes by automating approvals and reconciliation so you can focus on more strategic tasks.
Restrict access and set limits for advanced security
Enhance security with virtual cards by setting spending limits, expiration dates, and supplier restrictions to prevent unauthorized use. Issue cards for purchase orders and invoices, restricting them to specific suppliers and securely sending details directly to the requester. Control card restrictions to reduce credit exposure and security risks.
Improve spend under management
Drive pre-approved spend by having employees use virtual cards instead of personal credit cards. Eliminate uncontrolled and unbudgeted physical card spend by gathering accounting and budgeting information upfront during purchase requests. This approach provides real-time visibility into expenses, eliminating delays associated with traditional expense reports.
Improve cash flow and days payable outstanding (DPO)
Achieve higher bank rebates by increasing supplier and employee adoption of virtual cards with their user-friendly interface and automated processes. Increase productivity by eliminating the need for time-consuming expense reports. Additionally, extend DPO with longer payment terms from bank partners to optimize cash flow.
Enhanced spend control with Coupa Card
Go beyond standard virtual cards with Coupa’s end-to-end payments experience where credit approval, automatic reconciliation, and payments happen in one system. Enable tap-to-pay for pre-approved purchases, easily reload cards for recurring subscriptions or business expenses, and do much more — all within Coupa.
Work with designated payment partners
Alternatively, customers with more limited needs can leverage the benefits of our virtual card program through Coupa Payment Partners such as AMEX, Wells Fargo, HSBC, U.S. Bank, and others.
Rethinking Working Capital Management & Payments
Real intelligence uses domain-specific data
AI trained on real business spend data comes to conclusions you can trust, with context, accuracy, and built-in policy compliance.

FAQs
What are virtual cards for businesses?
Virtual cards for businesses are randomly generated card numbers, or tokens, tied to a primary card account, so the actual card information is not revealed during transactions. These virtual credit cards are a digital-only, encrypted version of a business credit card, used for specific transactions, vendors, or time periods.
What are the benefits of virtual cards for businesses?
Using virtual cards for business-to-business (B2B) payments is a proactive approach to mitigate fraud risks and enhance transaction security. Virtual cards reduce the likelihood of unauthorized access to sensitive financial information and come with additional security features such as spending limits, expiration dates, and merchant restrictions, which users can customize to meet their specific needs. In addition to enhanced security, virtual cards provide streamline reconciliation, improved cash flow management, cost savings, and more.
