Shopify Balance account transaction limits

Your Shopify Balance account has daily spending limits for different transaction types. Daily spending limits are reset at midnight UTC. Daily limits are based on the authorization date, not the processing date. For example, if you authorize a transaction on Monday, but it's processed on Tuesday, then that transaction still counts toward Monday's daily limit.

Each Shopify Balance card has its own spending limit. This applies to both physical and virtual cards. For example, if you have a limit of 5000 USD, then you can spend 5000 USD on your physical card and 5000 USD on your virtual card.
