Questions

Accounts and cards, answered.

Is this a bank account?

No. Tuppence is not a bank. Your balance is held with our card processor, Stripe Payments UK Ltd, and paid out to your own bank account.

When do I get my money?

While your account is new, funds can be paid out seven days after a payment (T+7), until your first £1,000 of card payments have cleared. After that it’s three days (T+3). From two weeks after your first payment, you can switch on next-day payouts (T+1). Standard payouts are free.

What spend earns cashback?

Settled purchases on your Tuppence cards. Cash and cash-like spend, money transfers, securities, stored value, gambling, government payments and gift cards don’t earn it, and refunds take back what they earned.

Do I need an AI agent to use cards?

No. A virtual card is your business’s own unless you give it to an agent. Use it for your team’s software, subscriptions and suppliers.
