# Card Controls & Limits

#### Spending limits

Each card has maximum allowable limits defined by regulatory and issuer rules.

Within those maximum limits, you can set your own spending limits in the app.

#### Where to find it

To adjust spending limits:

1. Open **Cards**
2. Select your card
3. Open **Card Details**
4. Tap **Spending Limits**

#### Adjust spending limits (example flow)

#### Available limit types

You can set limits for:

* Daily spending
* Monthly spending
* Yearly spending

These limits define the maximum amount your card can spend within each period.

***

#### How limits work

* Your custom limit cannot exceed the maximum allowed limit.
* Limits apply to successful transactions.
* If a transaction would exceed your set limit, it will be declined.

Changes take effect immediately after confirmation.

***

#### Important

* Limits apply per card.
* Limits do not affect incoming transfers.
* Freezing the card overrides spending limits and blocks new transactions.

#### Card controls

You can manage your card directly in the app:

* [Freeze or unfreeze](/product-guide/cards/lost-or-stolen-cards.md#freeze) the card at any time
* [Delete](/product-guide/cards/lost-or-stolen-cards.md#delete) the card if it is lost or stolen
