Can I use my physical Smartcard to rent a car?

Can I use my Smartcard to withdraw cash at an ATM?
No. Here's why: A well-run business is paperless and plastic-free (although we do support physical Smartcards). looch will get you there quicker than any other solution.

Cash is typically for personal expenses. Using business cash for personal expenses leads to messy accounting. We recommend transferring funds to your personal external account and withdrawing cash using that account's debit card. looch will properly categorize the transfer based on your entity type and tax treatment. This way, you can spend your cash while keeping your books clean.
Can I use my Smartcard to deposit cash?
No. One of the ways looch keeps your books tidy is by helping you go paperless and cashless.

If you must accept cash as a payment method, deposit it into an accounting-enrolled external account.
