With the creation of the Transparency Portal of the Federal Government, Brazilian society now has a new tool to meet the demand on social control. The general objective of this research was to analyze how the Transparency Portal of the Federal Government provides transparency of data on the use of public resources with the use of Payment Card of the Federal Government in 2019. This research was exploratory, the data were obtained through the “Payment Cards” Panel of the Transparency Portal and were analyzed in thematic categories or units of analysis. The results reveal that the Transparency Portal of the Federal Government provides data on the use of the Payment Card of the Federal Government, but there is a mismatch as to the purpose of using the payment card, which is the supply of funds and meeting possible expenses. It is concluded with this research that the Transparency Portal allows the disclosure of federal public spending and with this practice it is possible to verify the lack of publicity of certain agencies that use the Payment Card of the Federal Government, noncompliance in meeting possible expenses and lack of planning in the use of public resources.
