# Adds a card-presence spending control for Issuing ## What’s new Adds the [card_presence](https://docs.stripe.com/api/issuing/authorizations/object.md?api-version=2026-04-22.dahlia#issuing_authorization_object-card_presence) property to the [Issuing Authorization](https://docs.stripe.com/api/issuing/authorizations/object.md?api-version=2026-04-22.dahlia) object. Also adds the [allowed_card_presences](https://docs.stripe.com/api/issuing/cards/object.md?api-version=2026-04-22.dahlia#issuing_card_object-spending_controls-allowed_card_presences) and [blocked_card_presences](https://docs.stripe.com/api/issuing/cards/object.md?api-version=2026-04-22.dahlia#issuing_card_object-spending_controls-blocked_card_presences) properties to the [Issuing Card](https://docs.stripe.com/api/issuing/cards/object.md?api-version=2026-04-22.dahlia) and [Issuing Cardholder](https://docs.stripe.com/api/issuing/cardholders/object.md?api-version=2026-04-22.dahlia) objects. These new spending controls for Issuing let you restrict transactions based on whether or not a card is present. ## Impact You can now allow or block Issuing authorizations based on whether or not the card was present during the transaction. You can see the status of card presence in the Issuing Authorizations API to understand which authorizations these spending controls will decline.
