Digital payment solutions

In the digital world, real-time, self-service mode is the norm, with a strong focus on intuitive and easy-to-track services. Meanwhile, in the physical world, cards remain crucial for brand differentiation and not just a functional payment tool. They reflect both the issuer’s identity and the end user’s values. They embody the preferences of end users through inclusive, personalised designs, sustainable options, and a premium unboxing experience that reinforces customer loyalty and engagement.

Why physical cards still matter

Despite the rise of digital wallets, physical payment cards remain a key brand asset for banks – expected to grow at a 10% CAGR over the next 5 years. More than a payment method, cards now represent a bank’s identity, values and customer experience.
