Card Control Services

Overview

Our card control services allow you to manage your customers' cards with ease, providing an extra layer of security and flexibility. You can set custom limits on transactions for each card, such as daily or weekly limits, and even limit transactions to specific merchant categories or locations.

In the event of a lost or stolen card, our platform allows you to quickly block the card to prevent fraudulent transactions. You can also unblock the card when it's found or issue a replacement card directly through the platform.

With our real-time transaction monitoring, you can track your customers' card usage and receive instant alerts for suspicious or unauthorized transactions. This allows you to take immediate action to prevent fraud and protect your customers' accounts.

Switch Restrictions API

Overview

This API enables customers to quickly and easily switch restrictions on their credit or debit cards, helping them to make changes on the go.

How It Works

Once the customer's identity has been verified, the API switch the requested information from the payment processing company's database. This information includes data on the customer's transaction restrictions, approved or declined merchant categories, and countries where their card can be used. Overall, the Switch Restrictions API is a powerful tool that enables payment processing companies to provide their customers with quick and easy access to information about their card restrictions. By leveraging advanced security protocols and customizable features, the API helps to improve customer satisfaction and loyalty, while also streamlining internal operations.
