What information is required to enable card issuing?

When requesting card functionality during onboarding, you must provide information about how the cards will be used.

For example, the API requires details such as:
- The purpose of the cardsEstimated annual spend
- The number of cards required
- Whether ATM withdrawals are needed
- For business accounts, the name displayed on the card

These details help configure the card programme during the onboarding process.

Can issued cards be added to Apple Pay or Google Pay?

Yes.
Cards issued through the platform can be added to supported digital wallets including:
- Apple Pay
- Google Pay
- Samsung Pay

A digital wallet token represents the combination of a card, a specific wallet, and a device. Instead of exposing the card’s sensitive details, a token is used to securely process payments from the wallet.

How does digital wallet tokenisation work?

Tokenisation replaces the card’s sensitive details with a unique digital token when a card is used in a mobile wallet.
This token is specific to the card, wallet, and device combination, which helps protect the original card information during payments. A single card can have multiple wallet tokens if it is added to multiple devices or wallet apps.

Can I receive real-time notifications about card activity?

Yes. The platform supports webhooks, which allow your application to receive real-time notifications about events such as card transactions or digital wallet token status changes.

This allows you to update your application interface, notify users, or trigger internal workflows when card activity occurs.
