Emburse Cards Release Notes - November 11, 2026

This release increases the number of merchant category codes (MCCs) that you can use to restrict a card, resolves login timeouts that affected some users, sends email notifications to administrators when a card transaction is declined, and resolves an issue that caused merchant restrictions to shift when you add a new one.

Highlights

• Up to 20 MCC restrictions per card: Administrators can now restrict a card to as many as 20 MCCs, doubling the previous limit of 10.

Improvements

CARD PROGRAMS

Increased MCC Limit for Card Restrictions

Previously, you could restrict a card to a maximum of 10 MCCs. The maximum is now 20, so administrators can create card allowances and issue cards for a wider range of merchant types without splitting spending across multiple cards.

Bug Fixes

ADMIN

Login Timeout Errors Resolved

Some users received a 504 Gateway Time-out error when they signed in or after they entered their two-factor authentication (2FA) code. The error occurred when the management dashboard took too long to load. The dashboard query is now optimized so affected users can sign in and open the dashboard without a timeout.

Administrators Receive Email Notifications for Declined Transactions

Fixed an issue where administrators did not receive an email notification when a card transaction was declined.

CARD PROGRAMS

Merchant Restrictions Stay in Place When You Add a New One

When administrators added a merchant restriction to a card, existing restrictions could shift instead of staying in place. Merchant restrictions now remain in place when you add a new restriction.
