How to Use Asset Card for Freelancers and Entrepreneurs: Managing Subscriptions and Projects
Freelancers and entrepreneurs juggle dozens of tools to deliver client work: design suites, developer platforms, CRMs, AI tools, file storage, and more. Keeping subscriptions organized, avoiding surprise renewals, and tying spend back to projects can be tedious and costly. Asset Card centralizes spend, automates payments, and gives you clear visibility by client, project, and category—so you can focus on building, not bookkeeping. This step-by-step guide shows you how to set up Asset Card to manage subscriptions and run your projects smoothly.
The Challenges of Subscription and Project Spend Management
Multiple subscriptions across vendors with different billing cycles and currencies
Shadow spend from free trials turning into paid plans
Hard-to-track project profitability without clean allocation by client or project
Managing shared credentials and cards across teammates or contractors
Missed renewals and failed payments disrupting active work
Manual reconciliation for taxes and invoicing
Benefits of Using Asset Card for Subscriptions and Projects
Centralized subscription hub with clear ownership and renewal dates
Virtual cards per vendor or per project to control and audit spend
Automated bill payments and renewal reminders
Project and client-level tagging for instant profitability insights
Team cards with merchant controls and dynamic limits
Clean exports for taxes, invoicing, and accountant handoff
