Our verdict

Teampay issues business credit cards with an annual fee of $0, adding virtual and physical cards with instant issuance on top of existing AMEX cards, so nothing has to migrate. It suits finance teams that want spend controls by employee, department, vendor or category, instant freezes and real-time tracking, rather than shoppers chasing rewards.

Who it suits

  • Finance teams issuing cards for travel, software and vendor spend who want limits set by department or category.
  • Businesses that keep their existing AMEX cards and want controls layered on top without a migration.
  • Companies already on NetSuite, Sage Intacct or QuickBooks Online who want spend to post to the ledger.

Who should look elsewhere

  • Cashback seekers: Varo Believe Secured Credit Card pays cashback on spend where Teampay's rewards type is none.
  • Everyday banking customers: bunq's personal plans carry an annual fee of €0 and are aimed at individual accounts.
  • Anyone after a personal travel money card: Wise's card carries an annual fee of £0, while Teampay's controls run by employee, department and vendor.

Frequently asked questions

What does a Teampay card cost to hold?+

The model is no annual fee and the annual fee listed for the card is $0. The card is a credit card aimed at business spending, so the fee is the number to weigh for a company that will keep several cards in circulation.

Does a Teampay card earn anything on spend?+

The rewards type is none, so there is no cashback, points or mileage on company purchases. The worth sits on the admin side: built-in spend controls by employee, department, vendor or category, and the option to freeze or cancel a card on the spot.

Who can get a Teampay card?+

The audience is business, and the product is built for company spend, so cards are issued to employees by the business rather than applied for by a cardholder in their own name. A company sets the limits and the approvals itself, which is the point of the card for finance teams.

Can I cap what a cardholder spends?+

Yes. The Virtual and physical card issuance, Instant card issuance and Built in spend controls by employee, department, vendor or category include spend controls by employee, department, vendor or category, instant freeze or cancel of a card, and real-time transaction tracking. A manager can limit a team or a vendor without calling the card company, and a lost card can be stopped straight away.

Does Teampay work with our existing cards and accounting system?+

It works with existing AMEX cards, so no migration is needed to start, and card requests and approvals run inside Slack and Microsoft Teams. The Virtual and physical card issuance, Instant card issuance and Built in spend controls by employee, department, vendor or category also include native ERP sync with major accounting platforms such as NetSuite and QuickBooks Online, so spend can post to the ledger without manual entry.

How do I get help from Teampay?+

Support runs on help centre and phone, covering a help centre and phone contact for the business. Live chat and in-app messaging are not part of that channel list, so a question about a blocked card or a limit is handled by phone or through the help centre articles.

Is Teampay a credit card or a debit card?+

Teampay issues a credit card for company spend, and the business carries the balance rather than the employee's own account. That sits alongside controls set by employee, department, vendor or category, so the card is managed centrally and no personal credit impact is recorded for the holder.
