A growing market demands more tailored solutions

Redefining the prepaid card industry

As the demand for cash alternatives continues to rise, the prepaid card industry is projected to reach $6.87 trillion by 2030.

Prepaid cards are often referred to as “the everyday card,” as they’re a convenient offering with exceptional end user limit management. Prepaid cards minimize the risk of overspending, as they limit it to the available card balance. With prepaid cards, you also have the ability to load the cards via multiple platforms in various ways, including bank account transfers, direct deposit, or cash, online, or in person.

Prepaid cards have taken the place of cash, checks, and other payment cards, contributing to their growth and overall popularity. Furthermore, the unbanked and underbanked populations are a large part of the overall boost in the market as more companies look to solve those individuals' unique needs. More than 8.4 million U.S. households still operate without bank accounts; generally speaking, this population opts for prepaid cards that are safe, inexpensive, and essential banking substitutes.

Challenge:

While the prepaid card industry is set for growth, there has been a significant slowdowns in the innovative products and service offerings provided to the market. Businesses and fintechs alike need flexible, secure and global prepaid payment programs and tools that can be tailored to meet both their unique needs and internal structures.

Additionally, fraudsters and cybercriminals are increasingly targeting the prepaid industry, taking advantage of the lack of innovative solutions to help fight these advanced attacks.

Solution:

At Brightwell, we know that no use case is exactly the same. Our comprehensive suite of prepaid card products is tailored to meet the demands of the industry — and your company.

We are all about providing innovative and flexible options that can be customized and white-labeled. We offer everything from a global payroll solution to a corporate expense or incentive program, or a fraud protection tool catered to the prepaid market.
