Visa Commercial Pay Control is a card access management tool that includes basic functionality to support a Corporate Administrator to send cards to active users and perform basic updates. The card management functionality is not intended to replicate Visa Commercial Pay Online.
A Corporate Administrator can navigate to Team Members and view cards created by them or for them.
Importantly, in Visa Commercial Pay Control, no Card Holder Data (CHD) data is visible to support payment. Only the last four digits of the card are displayed to the Corporate Administrator. This reduces exposure of the card details to those who do not need it.
If the Corporate Administrator would like to know the details and has access to Visa Commercial Pay Online, they can use the Deployment ID displayed on screen to view in Visa Commercial Pay Online.
When viewing a card, the Corporate Administrator can see the following details:
-
Overview
-
Created By—the name of the user that created the virtual card and the date it was created.
-
Deployment ID—the unique ID generated by Visa Commercial Pay when a virtual card is created.
-

-
Active—card can be charged;

When viewing a card in Visa Commercial Pay Control, a Corporate Administrator can update any card that has been created, whether created by them, a Team Member, Team Admin, or another Corporate Administrator.
Cards can only be edited in Visa Commercial Pay Control if their deactivation date is in the future.
The following action options are presented at the bottom of the View Card screen:
-
Edit—update the payment controls and associated card data. The card type drives what type of data can be edited, whether it is an eCommerce card or Digital Wallet card.
-
Cancel Card / Revoke Card—changes the card status to Canceled, hiding the card details to the end user and blocking the card from further authorizations (card issuer dependent).
-
Digital Wallet Tokens—only visible on Digital Wallet cards.

Total Amount + Currency Code—the fixed amount the card can be billed for

If the currency code is set to a differing value from the virtual card account billing currency, Visa Commercial Pay will perform an exchange based on today's foreign exchange rate before requesting a card from the Card Issuer. The foreign exchange rates are retrieved daily from XE.com.
