Getting started

The questions most teams ask before opening an account.

What to know before you open your account.

Ledgerly is a financial technology company, not a bank. Accounts and cards are provided by our FDIC-insured partner banks, and Ledgerly builds the software you use to manage them.

Most teams finish the application in about ten minutes. We usually approve accounts within one business day, and many are approved and issuing cards in under an hour.

Yes. You can link outside bank accounts through Plaid to see their balances next to your Ledgerly account, and move money between them by ACH whenever you need to.

Ledgerly syncs with Xero and QuickBooks Online on every plan. Transactions, receipts, bills and invoice payments post with the categories you mapped when you set up the sync.

There are no fees for card purchases in US dollars or for ACH transfers. International card purchases carry a 1% foreign transaction fee, and outgoing wires cost $10.

Yes. The Core plan is free for up to three users and five virtual cards, with no time limit. You can upgrade to Team or Scale whenever you need more users, cards or approval rules.

Cards and invoices

How the products work day to day.

Learn how to use cards and invoices each day.

Virtual cards are ready the moment you create them and can be used online or added to Apple Pay and Google Pay. Physical cards ship within one business day and arrive in three to five.

Plans and billing

Prices, upgrades, refunds and fees.

Get answers on pricing, upgrades and fees.

Yearly plans are billed once upfront and cost about 17% less than paying monthly. Team comes to $288 a year and Scale to $768 a year, and you can switch to yearly at any time.

You can upgrade at any time and the new features are available right away. Downgrades take effect at the end of your current billing period, and your data and cards stay as they are.

A user is anyone who can sign in to your Ledgerly account, including cardholders, approvers and bookkeepers. Removing a user frees the seat immediately.

Monthly plans are not refunded for partial months, but you can cancel at any time. Yearly plans can be refunded in full within 30 days of purchase, no questions asked.

Registered nonprofits receive 30% off Team and Scale plans, billed monthly or yearly. Send your organization’s details to our sales team and we will apply the discount within a day.

We charge plan fees to your Ledgerly account balance by default. You can also pay with a credit card or by ACH from another bank, and change the method in your billing settings.

Security and data

How we protect your money and information.

How we protect your money and information.

Deposits are held at FDIC-insured partner banks. Through a sweep network across several banks, eligible balances are insured up to $5 million per business.

All data is encrypted with AES-256 at rest and TLS 1.2 or higher in transit. Access to production systems is limited to a small team, logged and reviewed by security every quarter.

Yes. Ledgerly completes a SOC 2 Type II audit every year. Customers can request the latest report and a summary of our penetration tests under NDA from account settings.

Freeze the card in the app and new charges are declined immediately. You can then cancel it and issue a replacement virtual card in seconds, with the same limits and rules.
