FAQs

What are virtual cards for businesses?

Virtual cards for businesses are randomly generated card numbers, or tokens, tied to a primary card account, so the actual card information is not revealed during transactions. These virtual credit cards are a digital-only, encrypted version of a business credit card, used for specific transactions, vendors, or time periods.

What are the benefits of virtual cards for businesses?

Using virtual cards for business-to-business (B2B) payments is a proactive approach to mitigate fraud risks and enhance transaction security. Virtual cards reduce the likelihood of unauthorized access to sensitive financial information and come with additional security features such as spending limits, expiration dates, and merchant restrictions, which users can customize to meet their specific needs. In addition to enhanced security, virtual cards provide streamline reconciliation, improved cash flow management, cost savings, and more.
