Funds are only required when the supplier charges the card, not when the card is issued. This reduces pre-funding and improves cashflow control.
Funds are managed in a centralised pot for all issued cards. Your card 'exposure' (charges due vs amount of funds in your account) are displayed in the virtual card dashboard:
Any required funds must be provided in your account prior to any charges, specifically your Adyen Virtual Card account, not your standard TL Pay.
Single-use cards: fund the exact amount (plus optional tolerance).
Multi-use cards: fund up to the total card limit.
It is also possible to keep a 'float' balance in the account to cater for fast turnaround of card payments, for example paying low cost carriers.
Funding details can be found in your TL Pay> Virtual Cards Dashboard. by hovering over the 'bank building' icon, the funding account details are displayed and can be copied:
It is mandatory to fund your card from the bank account you used during your application, no other account can be used.
