NAB Business Card Limits: Facility Limit vs Individual Card Limits

A cardholder limit and a facility limit solve different problems. The employee limit constrains one card; the facility limit controls the total credit available across the master account.

Analysis

The Facility Is the Master Account

NAB describes the facility as the master or billing account that carries the overall credit limit and consolidates card activity.

Analysis

Individual Card Limits Sit Under the Facility

A cardholder can have a pre-set limit, with NAB’s current guidance describing a $1,000 minimum individual card limit in the facility structure.

Analysis

Individual Limits Do Not Add Up to New Credit

If a $50,000 facility has only $4,000 of available capacity, employees cannot collectively spend more than that remaining capacity even if their individual card limits sum to a higher number.

Analysis

Limit Governance

Employee limits should reflect role, procurement need and fraud exposure. Higher limits should be deliberate rather than a default convenience.
