Using cards for purchases and to withdraw cash

Barclaycard Business is the UK’s largest business card specialist whose cards are accepted at more than 24 million outlets worldwide and 1 million in the UK. Using Barclaycard Business cards means less paperwork to manage, as it eliminates the need to account for petty cash or company cheques, and it means fewer transaction charges from your bank.

Using cards can also encourage more positive relationships with your suppliers by releasing them from the need to credit check. Thanks to the Visa network, payments to suppliers are normally received within three to four working days, so using cards can improve your suppliers’ cash flow too.

Barclaycard Business cards are convenient and flexible for your business too, as they can be used everywhere you see the VISA sign to pay for any kind of business expense from day-to-day purchases to hotels, flights, office supplies, car rental and foreign currency.

However, sometimes cash is the only available option for making payment. So where this option has been requested for an individual cardholder by the account administrator, Business cards can also be used to withdraw cash from Banks displaying the VISA sign and VISA ATMs worldwide.

Using your Barclaycard Business card in store.

If you’re in-store, simply present your card as you would any other charge or credit card.

Using your Barclaycard Business card over the phone

If you’re buying over the phone, use your card as you would any other charge or credit card. Remember to ensure that you take note of any order numbers quoted to you in respect of your order and payment, and tie up the delivery note when it arrives with your own record of the transaction to make sure they match.

Using your Barclaycard Business card over the internet

Using your card account over the internet is easy. Firstly, always check that the site is secure. When you are asked to input your card details, do so, along with additional identification as requested by the online store. It is advisable to print off details of online purchases to enable you to tie these up with the order upon its arrival, or to be able to contact the supplier should you need to do so.
