Digital wallets are convenient and are more secure than using a physical credit or debit card. This is because card details are not shared with a merchant when a purchase is made. Instead, a unique token is generated to approve each transaction.
Digital wallet purchases are ‘contactless,’ which adds another type of security for our cardholders. As businesses work to provide safer environments by minimizing physical contact, we expect to see a continued surge in demand for contactless payments from retailers and consumers alike.

Digital wallets are a consumer-based product and are increasingly accepted by retailers, restaurants, taxis, and public transportation. The B2B sector also has other payment tools, like virtual cards, that carry additional benefits for company card spending, notably helping with spending controls and automated accounting entries.
At Airbase we also know that there are times (for example, when traveling, or at a restaurant) that a physical card is easier to use than a virtual card. Now you can make your physical Airbase corporate card contactless so you don’t have to carry it around, hand it to people, or sign for it.

Use spend requests and approvals to ensure that company expenses are pre-approved before employees make card purchases.
Set spend limits for each card to prevent overspending and unauthorized vendor charges.
Employees using the physical card can upload receipts via mobile app, and virtual card users can attach receipts to each transaction.
Ensure a positive ROI on your Airbase subscription. Cashback, plus savings on legacy systems, let you monetize your spending.
Digital Wallets, also referred to as mobile payments, have existed in various guises for many years, but they’ve only gained popularity since Apple Pay announced its Digital Wallet in 2014.Read more on contactless payments
