How to Create a Card in Your Global Account

Overview

The Slash Global Card is a Rain crypto charge card that works anywhere Visa is accepted, draws from your USDC-backed balance, and lets you spend just like you would with any corporate card.

This guide explains what you need before creating a card, how to apply for card access in Slash, and how to create your first virtual card once card access is approved.

Note: Global Cards are provided by Rain. Card access requires a separate in-app approval. Terms and eligibility apply.

How to apply for the Slash Global Card

Step 1: Open the Cards page

From your Global Account dashboard, select Cards in the left sidebar. If your legal entity hasn’t been approved for Global Cards yet, you’ll see a setup screen instead of the standard card-management view.

Step 2: Start the application

The application is completed inside Slash, so you don’t need to visit a separate Rain portal. Slash uses information already collected for your Global Account where possible, and may ask you to confirm card terms or provide a few additional card-access details.

Step 3: Complete the prompts

Follow the prompts in the application panel. The information requested can vary by entity type and account history.

• Business entities: The flow is generally prefilled from your Global Account application and focuses on accepting the applicable card terms. If additional review is needed, Slash may ask for more information.
• Individual/consumer entities: Slash may ask for additional information such as occupation, annual salary range, account purpose, expected payment volume, and terms acceptance.

Step 4: Submit and wait for review

Submit the card-access application. While the application is in review, the Cards page shows that status. Review may take a few business days.

If card access is denied or unsupported, the Cards page shows the relevant status. Common reasons may include unsupported residency, unsupported jurisdiction, or compliance review requirements. Contact Slash support if you believe the status is incorrect.

How to create Global Cards

Once card access is approved, the Cards page switches to the standard card-management view, and you can issue virtual Global Cards.

Step 1: Navigate to Cards

Make sure you’re viewing the correct Global Account. If you manage multiple entities or accounts, use the entity/account switcher to confirm you’re in the right workspace. Then select Cards in the left sidebar.

Step 2: Initiate card creation

Click Add in the top-right corner and select New Virtual Card from the dropdown.

Step 3: Configure card details

In the card creation panel, fill in the card details. Available fields may include:

• Card name: A descriptive label that helps you identify the card later, such as “AWS Payments” or “Marketing Subscriptions.”
• Number of cards: The number of virtual cards to create with this configuration, if bulk creation is available for your account.
• Funding account: Select your Global Account. Global Cards draw from your Global Account balance.
• Card group: Optionally apply a card group to use preset spending rules and limits.
• Cardholder: Optionally assign the card to a team member. If no cardholder is assigned, the card may use your business or entity name where applicable.

Step 4: Set spending controls (optional)

Open the Limits section to configure controls for the card. Depending on your account, available controls may include:

• Transaction size limits: Set minimum or maximum transaction amounts.
• Utilization limits: Set daily, weekly, monthly, yearly, or total spending caps.
• Merchant category controls: Allow or block groups of merchants, such as travel, dining, or software.
• MCC controls: Allow or block specific Merchant Category Codes for more granular control.
• Country controls: Restrict where the card can be used geographically.

Step 5: Review and create

Review the card details and limits, then click Create Card.

Once created, the virtual card is available from the Cards page. Open the card to view its card number, expiration date, CVV, and billing address. You can copy the card details into a merchant checkout or add the card to a supported mobile wallet when available.
