Why are my Push Notifications not showing up in French?
Our push notifications provider sets the user language based on the most recently logged-in device language. If you log in on an English device, all of your devices will get English pushes.

What does it mean when a transaction is marked as non-compliant?
A non-compliant transaction is a transaction that does not meet the requirements of the Submission policy associated with your card. A submission policy is a set of rules that your Float Admin creates that dictate what additional information is needed to ensure company expenses can be reconciled at month end.
For example, if the submission policy associated with your card requires you to upload a receipt with every transaction, your transaction will be marked as non-compliant in the mobile app until you have uploaded the relevant receipt.
How can I update the information on a transaction?
To update information on a transaction, simply select the transaction and click on the input you’d like to input (e.g. Description, GL Code, Receipt, Tax Code, Vendor or other Accounting Fields). You can also add Supporting Documents if you wish to add more information to your transaction!
How can I add a receipt?
Adding a receipt through the mobile app is simple. You have two options as a user:
- You can add a receipt by selecting the “+” button on the bottom navigation bar and clicking “Snap a receipt”. Through this flow, you can take a picture of your receipt and attach it to any transaction.
- You can also add a receipt by going directly to the transaction and selecting “Add Receipt”. You can take a picture of the receipt or upload an existing photo/file from your phone.
đź’ˇ Note: When you select the push notification you receive when a transaction is completed, you will be redirected to the specific transaction to seamlessly add a receipt / other information.
How can I unmatch a receipt?
To unmatch a receipt, select the transaction and swipe left on the three vertical dots next to the receipt ID.
How can I see my card’s spending power and available limits?
To see a card’s spending power and available limits, go to the Cards tab, and select the card you want more information on. At the top of the page, you will see the card’s Available spending power.
To see the card’s limits, scroll down to the card graphic and click on the collapsible drawer below the card.
Can I access both virtual and physical cards on the mobile app?
Yes! You can see both active virtual and physical cards on the mobile app. For simplicity, virtual cards are white/gray and physical cards are black.
How can I request a new limit, a new virtual card, or a reimbursement?
To request a new limit, virtual card, or reimbursement, select the “+” button on the navigation bar and press on the type of request you’d like to submit. Complete the form that pops up and hit submit to send your request for approval!
How can I approve/deny a spend request (managers & admins)?
