How card purchases work in Reah
A Reah card allows an authorized team member to make business purchases inside the rules set by your workspace. Reah keeps purchases tied to the same system your team uses to manage financial activity, limits, and oversight. Depending on your workspace setup, a card purchase may be approved immediately, declined automatically, or paused for review.
Before making a purchase
The card is active and ready to use
The cardholder is authorized to make the purchase
The purchase fits the intended business use of the card
Available funds and card limits are sufficient
Merchant or policy restrictions will not block the transaction
Common reasons a card purchase may not go through
The card is frozen, inactive, or canceled
The transaction exceeds the spending limit
The merchant category is restricted
Available funds are insufficient
The transaction is blocked by workspace policy or review rules
Best practices
Use each card for a defined business purpose
Check limits before important purchases
Review pending versus completed status before assuming a final outcome
Investigate repeated declines instead of retrying blindly
