Account disclosures
Overview
Periodically, states will update their laws to require businesses registered within to disclose certain business-related information that may not have been in effect when a company was originally registered. Since Brex serves customers across all states, any given update may end up impacting at least some subset of our users. Below are some recent examples of new state-issued disclosures.
California, New York, Utah, Georgia, Kansas, and Florida state

- Updated November 27, 2024
In late 2022, California enacted laws requiring that business-to-business commercial finance providers offer rate and fee disclosures to customers based in California. At present, these laws are also enacted in Georgia, Florida, Utah, Kansas and New York . This may include disclosure of a transaction’s annual percentage rate, amount financed, finance charges, payment methods, and repayment terms, including prepayment policies. This will impact Brex customers in these states using card products. You can find your disclosure in your dashboard and via an email notification sent to all admins on your account. To acknowledge that you’ve read this, please make sure that you click I agree. This number includes some assumptions that are further explained in Footnote 1 of the disclosure. These assumptions may or may not be applicable to you. The footnote states that this disclosure assumes that:
- 10% of the customers’ transactions are charged in a foreign currency; and
- Those transactions are settled (paid) in US dollars, therefore incurring a currency conversion fee.
The conversion fee will not exceed 3% (this is currently included in our Card Terms, Section 1.6). If the customer does not conduct any such transactions, the fee does not apply. That footnote also includes an additional fee example in order to explain how the APR calculation works. We do not charge 9% fees today. We may charge up to 3% for the transactions described above.
