The Thredd difference

  • Card settings update via your existing integration, so programme changes don't require re-integration or manual reissuance, reducing operational overhead as you scale.
  • Structured usage controls and built-in security mean fraud exposure is contained without adding operational complexity to your team.
  • Fee groups configured to your programme model, so your commercial structure is built in from the start, not retrofitted later.
  • Consistent control across physical and virtual cards means you manage both card types within a single environment, without duplicating processes or tooling.
  • Settings adjustable after issuance, so your card programme can evolve without the cost or disruption of reissuing cards.
