What are virtual cards?
A virtual credit card, or virtual card, functions like a physical card with a uniquely generated 16-digit number tied to a customer’s account. Since virtual cards can be issued and used instantly, they’re often the preferred payment method. Marqeta supports virtual credit cards with Just-in-Time (JIT) Funding to optimize cash flow and improve control and tracking of card-level spending.
Our business model is on-demand, giving you flexibility in how you issue virtual cards. Whether you’re offering an installment loan to a borrower at the point of sale or onboarding a gig worker—our instant virtual cards can be used wherever Visa and Mastercard are accepted.

“We are always looking for ways to make Google Pay more helpful to our users. By working with Marqeta, we are able to give our users another way to spend the funds in their Google Pay balance, making it even easier to pay for everyday items.”
