Paying your vendor with a virtual card is easy and it’s our fastest delivery method.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Vendors must have a point-of-sale (POS) terminal or card processing device in order to process a virtual card.
Here’s how to choose a virtual card as a delivery method for your payment:
1. Start making a payment like you usually do. If this is your first time paying with Accounts Payable, here’s how to make a payment.
2. Select your Capital One Business card as your payment method.
NOTE: Only available when paying with a Capital One Business card.
When selecting other payment methods, the virtual card option won’t appear.
3. Select Virtual card (card accepting vendors only) as a delivery method.
4. If we don’t already have your vendor's email address saved in the vendor details, you’ll need to enter it here.
5. Choose when the virtual card will be emailed to the vendor. Click Continue.
6. Review and confirm your payment details. You’ll see the virtual card under VENDOR RECEIVES. Click Confirm and schedule payment.
That’s it. Your payment via virtual card is complete.
You’ll get an email with the details of this payment. Your vendor will receive a similar email with the details of the virtual card.
