  • Monthly Card Activity - Details the previous month's activity including the controls that have been added to cards such as Custom Reference Fields.
  • Daily Account Funding - Details the daily movement of money in and out of the account.

Cards | Email notifications for the Daily Authorisation Window report

Authorisation Windows is an optional field that provides cardholders with the ability to define specific time periods during which their cards can be used to make transactions. This feature enhances security and control over card usage by allowing you to align transaction capabilities with your individual needs or spending habits. The Daily Authorisation Window report details the future dated authorisation windows for cards on an account.

Users with the Daily Authorisation Window report enabled will now receive an email notification with the report included, alongside a link to download it through the Modulr Portal. This makes it easier for you to fund your accounts appropriately for upcoming card transactions.

If you wish to stop receiving these notifications you can do so via the API at any time. For further details on card reports and notifications, including instructions on how to activate or deactivate these alerts, please consult this guide.
