Top reviews

Can’t make payments

Can’t pay the balance. Can’t set up direct debits. What’s the point.

Terrible

Terrible app balance not up to date and very little can be done on it. Will be changing to another business credit card asap

Opening a account

Still not even open about 4 weeks ago and still a maybe
A lot are saying use Santander

Awful!

I have to log in every month to print off my statement and literally every month I’m told my password has expired and I need to set a new one. Infuriating!

Beware

Do not use this app it is damaging read all the negative reviews. I’ve ended up in 22.5k of debt in 30 months. I had no idea I wasn’t paying my balance off.

Less than useless

Can’t even get past the log in screen, just times out

Does not work

App has not worked now for a week and they’ve done nothing really bad show Barclays

Unbelievably bad

I have no idea how in 2025 they think this app is acceptable. So so so bad

Useless

You can’t see your overall balance, and you can’t access your card number- pretty much the only things I’ve needed from it so far. Every other app I’ve used with other companies can do this. Very disappointing.

unauthorized response from authentication platform

Can’t log in. Reset password, reinstalled app, called them. Total waste of time. All I get is the above error in red

Solid support but app needs improvement

I’ve been with Barclaycard Business since around April last year. To be fair, they’ve really supported my company with credit – the initial limit was low, but over time they’ve increased it as we showed consistent spend and repayments (often well above the minimum). On that side, I’ve got no complaints – they respect how we run the account, and that’s the reason I’m giving four stars instead of three.

Where they need to step it up is the app. It’s just okay, not great. You can’t really see real-time information on total company spend, overall limits, or a clear group-level view. To get proper details, you’ve got to go through the desktop portal, which feels outdated and long. For a business app in 2025, it should be much smoother.

If they improve the app to show more complete information and make it easier to manage everything in one place, I’d happily change this to five stars. For now three stars – good on the credit support, but app experience is behind the times.

Pretty useless app

Your current balance is £349, your app tells you your current balance is £0 because you’ve not spent anything on it that month. Transaction history only shows what you’ve spent, not payments you’ve made against the outstanding balance. You can’t make a payment to the card through the app. You can’t check what your minimum repayment is. You can’t check when your minimum repayment is due. About the only thing this app is useful for is checking your PIN code. I see this feedback was reported 4 years ago, so no hope of any improvement now. I don’t understand why Barclaycard for business can’t show in your business account app, so you can manage all your business accounts in one place, easily transfer money to pay it off etc. I’ve never known anything so inadequate and complicated in current times.

Barclaycard Business

Dear Barclaycard, find a balance and checking availability of funds is so easy on
my platinum card, but I find it so difficult checking availability details on my business cards. What can you please do to make it simpler ?knightonknightonhay 39

Broken

Won’t currently authorise an app payment, called support twice no resolution.. must be a fault in the app! No use to me!

Shocking app

Changed phone and can’t log in now. Told by Barclaycard this is standard security practice - never had this with other banking apps. Embarrassing

Appalling app

I am forced to use this app because my employer uses Barclaycard for staff corporate cards. It’s utterly appalling with the worst login process I have ever experienced. Using the facial recognition option causes the app to freeze and it never resolves, requiring a forced reset. This then locks the login so you need to reset the password. Accessing password reset part of the ‘help’ is then impossible because the UX does not include the ability to minimise the sign in keyboard to tap on the link - this is just app design 101 stuff. Once forced reset again to access help, a reset password is emailed but it cannot be pasted into the app so needs to be painstakingly typed. Everything runs painfully slowly, many of the timer icons are dark blue and dark red, which is impossible for a colourblind person to see, and when you finally manage to login (after waiting 30+ seconds while the app thinks), you get another page which tells you the app is thinking and gathering your details. No other financial services app I have ever encountered requires this much thinking time and every single login ends up taking 20 minutes. The really laughable part is that there is then only extremely basic info about your account and transactions included in the app - any need for greater detail requires a call into the help centre! As for so many 5 star ratings but 90%+ of 1 reviews - I can only presume ratings are being bought or forced by staff members. Honestly Barclays, you need to sort this piece of junk out in this day and age.

So slow, so poor

The slowest app on my phone by some distance. Every time I want to use it I have to reenter all login details and receive a text to gain access. Each time it then tells me I’ll have to wait a few moments as it ‘gets everything ready’. A normal Barclaycard links to my Barclays Bank app, but this won’t link to my Barclays business app? Already thinking of cancelling and getting a credit card with someone else

Complete waste of time

The Barclaycard Business app is a complete waste of time, any information is incorrect and you cannot use the app to service your account.

App is terrible

I’ve never left a review in the App Store before, but I feel compelled to share my experience with the Barclaycard for Business app. Unfortunately, it has been quite disappointing.

I frequently encounter error messages when trying to log in, which is very frustrating. Given that Barclaycard is one of the leading banks in the market, I expected much better performance.

I often see the message: "Sorry, unable to proceed with request. Please try again later. (REF: APSN)." Overall, I’m not impressed.
