Any US-based, commercial American Express cards are eligible. These would include AMEX business, corporate, and purchasing card programs. Personal, non-US, and non-AMEX cards are not eligible.

There are zero costs to enroll in and use Tradeshift Go. When a transaction is made on a virtual credit card you will still receive any perks, protections, and rewards associated with the linked physical AMEX card program.

Yes! Any transactions made on a virtual card will seamlessly flow through to the physical American Express parent card and contribute to any incentive structure for that respective card program.

• Double-check spam for an email from notifications@tradeshift.com. Next, try resetting your password (https://getgo.tradeshift.com/signin/password/forgot). If still no luck, contact Go_Support. 
  • We will need to check if the email or company name has already been registered and tied to a Pay account. If so, Go_Support can scrape and resend password reset

• You still have all of the protections and reassurances from AMEX, even if a Virtual Credit Card is compromised. When you have fraud on a Virtual Credit Card, deactivate that card as quickly as possible and contact AMEX at the number on the back of your physical card to begin the dispute process.
  • If AMEX issues a replacement physical card (even though the fraud was on a Virtual Credit Card #) your virtual card payment methods should continue to work. The only optional update to make is when you get the new card, inform Go_Support of the old and new last 4 digits of the source card and we will update the UI so the last 4 digits reflect accordingly within the platform. Again, totally optional, it won’t cause disruption if you leave it as is, but we can have our engineers update it to keep things neat and organized.

Please submit a request via the ‘Support’ button within the platform. We will be able to delete all virtual cards across a Company, Team, Source Card, or User.

A merchant can issue refunds back to a virtual credit card just like they charge it. They will be able to issue the credit, even if the virtual card has been deactivated. However, please note that the available balance on the virtual credit card will not replenish after a refund. The credit will skip the Tradeshift Go platform and be issued directly to the physical parent card.

Only the user who issued the initial virtual card request will have access to the full card number. Users often mistakenly log in with their Admin level account as opposed to Team Owner/Manager/Member. If you see {Company Settings} listed on the left, then you’re logged in as the Admin account.

Once a Virtual Credit Card is approved, all parameters are set in stone. A new card that incorporates the desired changes will need to be requested. The one exception to this is the cardholder name displayed on the virtual credit card. It will always show the name associated with the account that created the initial VCC request and this can be changed by utilizing the settings cog icon in the bottom left when logged in with the requesting account. Changing the name associated with the account changes the displayed cardholder name on the respective virtual cards.

• This can only be done by either an Admin or Team Owner permission-level user. If logged in as a Team Owner, use the team selector in the bottom left to pick the team on which you’d like to make the changes and then click {Team Settings} > {People} > {Invite}. 

From a Company Admin you’ll first have to click {Company Settings} > {Teams} > {…} to access the team to which you’re inviting a user.

• Team Members can only create requests and do not have the option for self-approval. They can only see the cards for which they’ve been approved in their Wallet view. They can click into their approved card to see the transactions on that particular card but don’t have access to monthly settlement reporting.
• Team Managers can be set up with or without self-approval. They gain access to the Manage Settlements report for their own transactions and for any Team Members for whom they’re the default approver. 
• Team Owner gains access to adjust Team Settings, Invite People, and the Team Cards view. They have oversight of all cards (ability to cancel and view transactions) but only the user that requested the card will have access to the full card number.

2.Remove the user from the existing Trasdeshift Go account. Go_Support needs to scrape the email

Username/email already in use on another Tradeshift Go account.

1.Use a different email address or the “+ before @gmail.com” trick if using gmail.

What is the Gmail + trick?

The Gmail + trick uses what’s called “plus addressing” to quickly create unique email addresses that can receive mail in a single existing Gmail account.  

All you have to do is add a “+” symbol and any word or combination of characters after your username and before the “@” symbol. Gmail will deliver messages sent to each variation to your main inbox. 

For instance, if your email is janedoe@gmail.com, you can create numerous aliases serving different functions, such as: 

• For personal matters: janedoe+personal@gmail.com
• For professional communications: janedoe+work@gmail.com
• For finances: janedoe+banking@gmail.com
• For online purchases: janedoe+shopping@gmail.com
• For recurring paid services: janedoe+subscriptions@gmail.com

2.Remove the user from the existing Trasdeshift Go account. Go_Support needs to scrape the email before it can be added to a different account.

• Tradeshift Go virtual cards always take the billing address of the physical source card that they are linked to. If you need to update the billing address displayed in the UI, please open a request by using the in-platform [SUPPORT] button. Note that inputting this request will not change the effective billing address on your AMEX account. You will need to contact AMEX directly to have that updated and ensure the two addresses match.

Couple possibilities — once an authorization is successfully made a VCC that amount shows as ‘Spent’ even if the merchant never actions the authorization to post the charge. For example a pending charge that falls off.

The other possibility is if there are newer charges where the settlement data hasn’t yet been fed back to Tradeshift Go. Once a settlement posts to the AMEX source card, the data typically takes 2-5 calendar days before it is fed back to Tradeshift Go.

You can request a detailed log of all the activity on a virtual card which will show the amounts that make up the ‘Spent’ amount by utilizing the in-platform [SUPPORT] button and providing the last 4 digits of the VCC in question.
