Fund your Issuing balance
Last updated: January 29, 2025
Add funds to the balance on your Issuing account so your cardholders can perform transactions using their cards.
Note
If you have insufficient funds in your balance, your cardholders’ transactions will be declined.
You can use any of the following sources to fund your Issuing balance:
- Funds from your bank account
- Funds collected through acquiring
- Funds from your sub-entity accounts
There are no limits to the amount you can fund your balance with in a single action, regardless of the source you use.
The updated balance will be reflected in your account, and usable by your cardholders, within 24 hours.
Top up your Issuing balance by transferring money from another bank account.
If you use Checkout.com for both Acquiring and Issuing, you can use a joint currency account and automatically fund your Issuing balance using the funds collected through acquiring.
For more information, contact your Account Manager.
You can check your Issuing balance, or your sub-entity’s balance, at any time using the following endpoint:
