Can Approve Spending ✓✓

A reviewer that can authorize spending is often someone that oversees a department or part of your business. For example, you might have a reviewer of the engineering department, so this person can assign cards to members of the engineering team and approve pre-approvals for the department.

Reviewers who cannot authorize spending privileges are primarily people that will help with bookkeeping within your business. This wouldn't be a person that would have authority to adjust any budgets or enforce any sort of expense controls.

Can View Virtual Card Details

Reviewer who can review virtual card details can see the full 16 digits and CVV of the virtual cards they have access to.

Has Access to All Transaction Activity 🌎

Reviewers who has access to all transaction activity will be able to view all cards and transactions on the account. This includes items from people they do not supervise. 

Reviewers who do not have access to all transactions activity will only be able to view the transactions and cards of the people they supervise and those within their department, location, or label.

Supervisors and Direct Reports

Reviewers can be restricted to only see transactions from their direct reports. Read more about Supervisors here.
