Set card spending limits
Cap how much each card can spend per day, week or month so spending never runs away.
Last updated June 1, 2026
Each card supports a spending limit so a single card can never spend more than you allow.
Set a limit
- Open the Cards tab and tap the card.
- Tap Limits.
- Choose a daily, weekly or monthly cap and enter the figure.
- Confirm. Transactions that would push the card past the cap are declined automatically.
Limits apply per card, so you can give a travel card a generous monthly cap while keeping a subscriptions card on a short leash. You can raise, lower or remove a limit any time.
Tip
Pair a tight limit with a clear card label. A card named Ads with a fixed monthly cap means a runaway campaign can never overspend your balance.
If a card is being declined because it hit its cap, see Card declined and troubleshooting. You can also freeze a card to pause it entirely.
