They enable consumers to exchange funds more safely with merchants using a variety of funding sources, which may include a bank account, company branded credit products, a credit card, a debit card, certain cryptocurrencies, or other stored value products such as gift cards, and eligible credit card rewards. Their products also make it safer and simpler for friends and family to transfer funds to each other. They offer merchants an end-to-end payments solution that provides authorization and settlement capabilities, as well as instant access to funds and payouts. They also help merchants connect with their customers, process exchanges and returns, and manage risk. They enable consumers to engage in cross-border shopping and merchants to extend their global reach while reducing the complexity and friction involved in enabling cross-border trade.

Their beliefs are the foundation for how we conduct business every day. They live each day guided by their core values of Inclusion, Innovation, Collaboration, and Wellness.
