Unlike other cards, The Business Gold Card has no pre-set spending limit, providing you
with unrivalled flexibility to meet the purchasing needs of your business. If you use the
Card regularly and pay your account in full and on time each month, you are usually free
to spend as much as you have shown us you can afford.

Each month you will receive a clear and detailed statement setting out what you have
spent, where and when — including type of purchase (when supplied by the merchant or
retailer). There are separate pages for each Cardmember on the account and a summary page
for the overall account. And at the end of the UK tax year you may also request our
unique Annual Management Report at no extra charge. This itemises all expenditure on all
Cards during the year, with charges broken down by both expense category (e.g.,
transportation, hotels, restaurants) and individual Cardmember. To request your free
Annual Management Report call Customer Services on 01273 576 123.
