This is a service that can be used primarily with corporate cards ever since companies can decide in advance on the type of use and cost to be approved for each employee.

This simplifies the issue of cost control, they insure the international company.
“With the personalized parameterization of each card, the user can make decisions that will affect their security and also control their card costs. If you only want to use the card for one item or up to a certain amount, you can program it yourself, just as companies can do to their employees if they have a card with the platform we offer ”, explained marketing and new business manager of this company, Jorge Larravide.
Credential Payments has been operating for more than four decades in Argentina, providing payment services, both to the Fintech sector, as well as to banks and the government sector. It works in the local market and in a dozen countries in Latin America.
