Can employees use Alice Card for business purchases?

No. Business expenses cannot be claimed pretax. The IRS requires pretax commuter expenses to be personal expenses, not business expenses. That means:

• Spending charged to a company credit card and treated as a business expense cannot also be claimed pretax through Alice.
• Spending that an employer reimburses outside of the pretax commuter benefit cannot be claimed pretax.

The IRS summarizes its rules on deducting business expenses.

What if an employee connects a business credit card to Alice?

Employees may connect only personal cards. A company or business card can never be connected to Alice. If an employee connects one, ask them to remove it and connect a personal card instead.

• Your business is not responsible for an individual employee's pretax spending decisions or claims.
• Employees should confirm only personal commuter expenses. They can contact Alice support with questions.
