Marqeta platform overview — October 2019
Marqeta is the first modern card issuing platform built for the agile, digitally savvy customer. We power modern payment experiences for many of the apps and services you enjoy every day such as booking travel, ordering meal delivery or applying for a loan. Our customers are disruptors who are not afraid to upend decades-old business models to create tailored payment experiences that meet the unique needs of their business with unprecedented speed, flexibility, and control. Our technology and payments expertise serves a wide breadth of industries from on-demand delivery services that manage fraud with dynamic spend controls, to digital lenders who fund virtual cards and push them to digital wallets at the point-of-sale, to e-commerce aggregators who use real-time payments to secure inventory and optimize payment terms. Our modern payments platform and APIs make these experiences possible by empowering developers to issue cards, authorize transactions and manage payment operations with ease. Highly configurable, secure and reliable, Marqeta’s platform helps B2B and B2B2C companies compete in a constantly changing digital world.
