Select active budget

Learn how to change your active budget, which determines the budget used when spending with your physical card.

Next User Type: Member (Cardholder)

When spending from your physical card, funds are taken from your selected active budget in J.P. Morgan Next. Only individual users can change their own active budget; admins cannot select an active budget for users in their account.

Notes:

  • You can reassign the transaction to a different budget even after a transaction is completed.

  • If you cannot select a new active budget, you may only belong to a single budget or you do not have funds assigned to you in any other budgets.
