Subscription Cards: A smarter way to manage your business subscriptions

We’re all about making business banking simpler and more intuitive. We know that managing subscriptions, whether it’s for digital ads, software tools, or cloud services, can quickly become a headache. That’s why we’re excited to introduce the Subscription Card, designed to help you take control of your business subscriptions with ease.

What is a Subscription Card?

As your business grows, so do your subscriptions. From Google Ads to Meta, AWS, and Shopify, these recurring payments are essential to keeping your business running smoothly. But they don’t have to be complicated.

The Subscription Card streamlines these payments, keeping them organised, secure, and hassle-free. Here’s why it’s a game changer:

Centralise Your Payments

Use one card for all your recurring subscriptions. No more tracking multiple cards or trying to remember which card was used for which platform. Everything is in one place, making it easier to monitor your spend.

No More Payment Interruptions

One of the most frustrating things about managing online subscriptions is having a payment fail due to low card limits. The Subscription Card comes with higher limits, reducing the risk of interruptions to your critical services, whether it’s advertising campaigns or cloud hosting.

Better Control & Security

The Subscription Card keeps your recurring payments separate from your everyday business spending. This added layer of security ensures your essential services are paid on time without mixing in with other expenses. Plus, it’s virtual-only, built for online use - not for tap & go payments.

Track by Project or Client

With the ability to assign your Subscription Card to specific projects or clients, it’s easier than ever to track and allocate recurring costs. Stay organised, know where your money is going, and simplify your accounting.

How to Set Up the Subscription Card

Setting up the Subscription Card is quick and easy. Here’s how:

  1. Open the Emerge app: Go to the ‘Cards’ section.

  2. Tap the + icon: Select whether the card is for yourself or a team member, then choose Subscription Card.

  3. Set it up in seconds: Assign your subscriptions, and start managing your digital spend.

The Future of Your Subscriptions

The Subscription Card is just the beginning. We’re committed to building tools that help Kiwi entrepreneurs manage their businesses smarter, not harder. Stay tuned for future updates and get ready to make your subscription payments easier than ever before.
