Can I use my company card for personal use?

There are no laws against using a company credit card for personal payments, but there are several reasons why you probably want to avoid doing it. The main one being that most credit card providers don’t permit personal use in their terms, so they might block future activity.

Business bank accounts are intended to keep company expenses separate from personal spending. Using a company credit card to buy something for yourself undermines that.
