Where can you use your Viably debit card?

Once issued, you can immediately begin using your Viably virtual debit card to pay for business expenses with money in your account!

You can use your Viably debit cards anywhere from an online service that you subscribe to for your business, to a retail store where you’re purchasing office supplies, or a restaurant where you’re taking a business lunch. On all purchases with your Viably debit card you’ll earn 2% cash back on your own money


Your card will have the Mastercard logo on it, and be accepted by any business or merchant that accepts Mastercard, but it’s important to note that your Viably debit card is not a credit card

What’s the difference between a Viably debit card and a credit card? 

In order to make a purchase you must have sufficient funds in your account. Without sufficient funds in your account, you’ll be unable to make the purchase or transaction. If necessary, simply login to Viably to check your account’s balance and review the spending limits for your account. You may adjust this accordingly as the admin on the account.

💡Keep in mind: as you are completing transactions, when you're asked to provide a zip code, be sure to enter the zip code you entered during Viably's verification process.


While Viably debit cards are backed by MasterCard, they cannot provide you with a line of credit and do not have overdraft capabilities. This is one of the ways that Viably helps you prevent overspending and unnecessary fees that can hurt your cash flow.
