Authorisation logic

The card is simple at checkout because the difficult decisions happen underneath.

When a purchase arrives, the programme must identify the cardholder, selected funding balance, available amount, limits, merchant controls and any required conversion before the issuer returns a decision.

The customer should see one purchase record that connects the merchant amount, conversion result, card authorisation and final settlement — rather than several unrelated balance movements.

Control surface

Useful card controls should be understandable without a manual.

Freeze status, spending limits, online and contactless permissions, merchant restrictions and funding source belong in one clear account experience.

01

Virtual and physical cards

Issue eligible customer and employee cards through licensed programme partners.

02

Balance selection

Choose which supported fiat, crypto or stablecoin balance funds card spending.

03

Card controls

Freeze cards, set limits and restrict merchant categories or geographies.

Card issuance, processing, scheme access, disputes and final risk controls require licensed programme partners. Availability remains market- and eligibility-dependent.
After the purchase

Settlement, refunds and disputes remain part of the product.

Authorisation is only the first state. The final merchant amount can settle later, a reversal may release the hold, and a refund or chargeback can create additional connected entries.

Keeping those events under one card transaction reference gives customers and support teams a complete history of what happened and why the available balance changed.
