How can a BizPay Card be closed? (DETAILED)

A BizPay Card can be closed only by the sponsoring corporate. The administrator submits a Closure request through the Relationship Manager or authorised channel.

Regular Closure of inactive cards helps maintain accurate reporting and strengthens financial control.

Unused balances belong to the corporate. When a card is no longer required—such as after an employee exit or project completion—the corporate can request a refund through ICICI Bank.

Corporates should review inactive cards regularly to maintain accurate accounts and optimise the use of funds.

Once blocked, the card becomes inactive across POS, ATM and online channels. A replacement can be issued after verification. Immediate blocking protects corporate funds and prevents misuse.

Corporates can track status through their Relationship Manager. Quicker reporting improves chances of successful resolution.

How do corporates reload BizPay Cards? (DETAILED)

Reloads can be done through NEFT, IMPS, UPI or the ICICI Bulk Load Portal. NEFT/IMPS/UPI transfers must include accurate references to ensure the correct card is credited.
