💳 Setting Maximum Transaction Limits for Cards

💳 Setting Maximum Transaction Limits for Cards

SiFi lets you control spending at the card level by setting maximum transaction limits for different types of transactions — whether it’s a POS purchase, online payment, ATM withdrawal, or foreign transaction.

You can configure these limits while creating a new card or update them later in card settings.

⚙️ Where You Can Set Limits

You can set or edit maximum transaction limits in two places:

  1. During Card Creation

    • Go to Cards → Create Card.

    • Scroll to Security Options.

    • Enable and set transaction limits for each type:

      • POS (Point of Sale)

      • Online Payments

      • ATM Withdrawals

      • Foreign Transactions

    • Enter the maximum transaction amount and click Save.

    • Any transaction exceeding the set amount will be automatically declined.

  2. After Card Creation

    • Navigate to Cards → Card Settings.

    • Select the card you wish to modify.

    • Open the Security Options tab.

    • Adjust the limits as needed and click Save.

📝 Example

If you set:

  • POS limit → 500 SAR

  • Online limit → 300 SAR

  • ATM limit → 200 SAR

    Any transaction above these amounts will be declined automatically.

🎯 Benefits of Setting Limits

  • Reduce risk of unauthorized or large transactions.

  • Control spending for individual users or departments.

  • Ensure compliance with company spending policies.

  • Protect budgets for virtual and funded cards alike.
