What is a virtual prepaid card?

A virtual prepaid card is a card number, expiration date, and CVV issued digitally rather than printed on a physical card. It holds a balance you load, and it works like any other Visa or Mastercard within that balance.

Speed

Get recipients spending in minutes

Physical cards have a production and delivery cycle, with waiting time while the cards are printed, packed and mailed.

Virtual cards remove that cycle entirely. You issue the card, the recipient receives it by email or SMS, and the funds are available as soon as the card is loaded. There is no shipment to track and nothing that could get lost in transit.

01

Issue

Order one card or a batch, by portal or API.

02

Deliver

The recipient gets the card by email, branded as you.

03

Spend

Funds are live as soon as the card is loaded. No shipment, no tracking.

Acceptance

Where virtual cards can be used

Online and in-app

Virtual cards work anywhere Visa and Mastercard are accepted. For most digital purchases, the cardholder enters the card number the same way they would enter any other card.

In person, via mobile wallet

For in-person purchases, the card needs to be added to a mobile wallet first. Virtual cards can be tokenized into Apple Pay or Google Pay and then the cardholder can tap to pay at any contactless terminal.

Branding

Your brand on every card

Virtual cards are white-labelled. Recipients experience the card as yours.

The card face

Your name, your logo, and your colours on the card design itself.

The issuing email

The notification that delivers the card comes from your program, not ours.

Cardholder screens

Every cardholder-facing screen carries your branding end to end.

Programs can run multiple designs at once. If you issue cards on behalf of several brands or for different use cases, each can have its own card face within a single program.

Operations

Manage every card from one place

We hold the contracts with the sponsor bank, the processor, and the card networks, so you don't have to manage them yourself. You get a single place to issue cards, load funds, and see what's happening across the program.

Issue and load

Order cards in bulk, then load or reload balances from the client portal or the API.

See the whole program

Check the status of any card, review load history, and resend card notifications.

Secure card details

Cardholders view their full card number, expiration date, and CVV through a secure digital interface, which we operate within a PCI DSS compliant environment.

Virtual, physical, or both

Neither format is universally better. The right choice depends on who is receiving the card and where they will spend it.

Many programs run both, issuing a virtual card immediately and a physical card behind it
