About sub accounts

What are sub accounts? How can they be used?

Updated this week

Sub-accounts are individual accounts that sit within your overall wamo business account. You can create multiple sub-accounts at no cost with no additional paperwork or application needed.

Why do I need sub-accounts?

  • Every sub-account has its own IBAN, so you can choose who you share which sub-account with and generate a new IBAN when you like.

  • You can link cards to each sub-account you create, enabling you to allocate budgets to team cards or have a designated card expense account.

  • Organize your account into different needs. You could have a sub-account reserved for tax payments or for wages, which means that when it comes time to pay the bills, you’ll have the funds ready.

  • You can also generate separate statements for each sub-account.

Can I link a card to a specific sub-account?

Yes, when creating a card you can connect it to a certain account. Here’s how:

  • Navigate to your Home dashboard

  • Go to the Cards tab on the left-hand side of your desktop or the bottom right on the mobile app

  • Click or tap + Add card and follow the on-screen instructions

Note: For security reasons, you cannot change the card’s account once the card has been ordered or created.


​Why is this useful?

Sub-accounts help you budget better and organize your finances much more easily.

For example, if you want to get a card for one of your team members, you can link it to a sub-account they have access to. This enables you to generate an expense report for that card by generating an account statement for that designated sub-account.

How do I delete a sub-account?

To delete one of your accounts, please make sure that you have withdrawn all the funds from the sub-account you wish to delete. Once the balance is zero, contact our support team at support@wamo.io or through the in-app chat to complete the deletion process.
