Create Spend Accounts
Overview
A user cash balance account is a spending account that allows users to manage and track their available funds within the Fluz platform. Each cash balance account is identified by a unique nickname and maintains separate balances for total, available, and lifetime deposits. Users can create multiple cash balance accounts (e.g., "Team Travel", "Operations Wallet", "Marketing Budget") to organize their spending across different purposes.
Cash balance accounts are required for making deposits, purchasing gift cards, and funding virtual card transactions on the Fluz platform.
