Now Live: Merchant Limits

Merchant Limits puts you in control of every dollar spent. Decide where cards¹ can and can’t be used, whitelist trusted vendors, and block risky categories, all from your Slash dashboard.

Every dollar matters when you’re running a business. Ad campaigns, vendor payments, employee cards. Spend adds up quickly. But without visibility and control, even small mistakes can snowball into fraud, waste, or out-of-policy charges.

That’s why we built Merchant Limits, a new feature that lets you decide exactly where your cards can, and can’t, be used.

Now Live: Merchant Limits

Card spend, your rules.

Why Merchant Oversight Matters

Most banking tools only show charges after they’ve cleared. By the time you notice something off, the money’s already gone. For fast-moving operators, running ads, issuing staff cards, or scaling teams, that delay turns into unnecessary risk.

Fraud, employee misuse, or even just accidental purchases outside approved categories can eat into margins and throw off reporting. And if you’re managing dozens or hundreds of cards, the chance of error multiplies.

How Slash Changes the Game

With Merchant Limits, you’re in control from the start:

  • Whitelist trusted vendors. Keep cards restricted to platforms you rely on like Meta, Google Ads, or Shopify.
  • Blacklist irrelevant or risky categories. Block entertainment or other non-business spending before it happens.
  • Scale with consistency. Apply rules across entire card groups, so marketing budgets or staff cards follow the same guardrails.

Combined with Bulk Card Creation, you can spin up hundreds of cards at once, all inheriting the same rules. No need to micromanage limits card by card.

Built for the Way Slash Users Work

E-commerce operators, digital-first businesses, and high-spend teams already know: ad budgets move fast, and oversight matters. Merchant Limits gives you tighter control without adding more work. That means fewer surprises, fewer mistakes, and more dollars going exactly where you need them.
