Cardholders can attach receipts to transactions in one of three ways, and we’ll automatically reconcile receipts to the correct transaction:
- Upload using the Stripe Dashboard
- Reply to one of our reminder texts with a photo

Any cards reported as lost or stolen are frozen immediately, and after the dispute process is complete, your account is credited for any disputed transactions determined to be fraudulent.
What’s the difference between Stripe Issuing and Stripe Corporate Card?
Stripe Corporate Card enables your company to receive corporate credit cards to pay for business expenses. Your business can instantly provision cards, manage your company’s spending in real-time and get cash back on your purchases.
