By Leandra Monteiro

Cashfree Payments announced the launch of Card Issuance Stack with their new solution ‘Issuance’ to enable businesses such as FinTechs and platforms to launch prepaid cards and wallets for their customers, employees, and partners.

‘Issuance’ is a prepaid card and wallet issuance API stack which can be used for payroll and incentive disbursals, customer loyalty programs, and expense management among other use cases. ‘Issuance’ allows businesses to launch both physical and virtual prepaid cards.

‘Issuance’ will offer low-code and no-code flows to enable businesses to launch their customized prepaid card or wallet in a few weeks without deep integration with multiple entities. ‘Issuance’ enables platforms to design and customize their own prepaid card features including assigning of spend limits, creating a closed loop, open loop, or hybrid payment options, and facilitating minimum and full KYC prepaid cards. ‘Issuance’ allows businesses to launch both mono-branded and co-branded prepaid cards. ‘Issuance’ can be bundled seamlessly with Cashfree Payments’ Payment Gateway and Payouts to create a powerful tool for business. For example, FinTechs can leverage the solutions to scale their neo-banking use cases such as parent-child and family expense management, among other use cases.

Akash Sinha, Co-founder and CEO of Cashfree Payments said, “We are extremely proud to launch Cashfree Payments’ Card Issuance Stack with our new solution ‘Issuance’.  ‘Issuance’ with its low-code flow is yet another example of Cashfree Payments technological prowess wherein with minimal integration, Fintechs & Platforms can launch their prepaid card & wallet program in a matter of weeks. As a front-runner in the API Banking & Payments space, ‘Issuance’ strengthens our focus on accelerating digital payments for India.”
