For business accounts, Groups give you control over how you separate your funds, and let you manage how your team members access and spend from those funds.
Money in groups is kept separately from your main balances — known as your Main Group.
As a business account Owner or Admin, you can create a group for anything that you’d like to separate funds and manage team expenses for. Once you create a group, you can add the employees who you’d like to be able to order a card and spend from that group. You can also hold multiple currencies to spend from within one group.

How is a group different to my Main Group?
Main Group refers to the main balances and Jars in your business account, which are separated by currencies. You have one main balance per currency. If you use groups, nothing changes with your Main Group, and you can continue using your existing balances.
The default currency for your Main Group is set by the address on your profile. So if your address is in the UK, then your default currency will be GBP.
