What are virtual cards?
Virtual cards work just like regular physical cards, but are found in a digital wallet instead of your wallet. They are protected by encryption and you can use them to make payments in store or online safely, via your smartphone.
What is the difference between virtual, digital and single use cards?
A virtual card is an active card in the digital wallet on your smartphone and can be used to make online or in-store purchases. This type of cards have their own number, expiration date and CVC code. A digital card is a dematerialized version of your physical card, has the same details as your physical card and is used via Wallet (Apple Pay or Google Pay).
A single use card is a virtual card that can only be used once.
What are the advantages of a virtual card?
Activation instantly
You can start using your virtual card to make payments in-store and online, as soon as you activate your gipay account.
Stay in control
You can block and unblock your virtual card directly from your smartphone, wherever and whenever you want.
Without wallet
Virtual debit and credit cards are simple to use and you can always carry them with you on your smartphone.
Make recurring payments
You can use a virtual card to make your recurring payments, such as your online subscriptions, in complete safety.
Pay securely in-store and online
Collega la tua carta virtuale gipay ai portafogli digitali Google Pay o Apple Pay ed effettua pagamenti in negozio e online in modo semplice, sicuro e 100% digitale. Per noi di gipay, la sicurezza è una priorità assoluta: per questo motivo, i dati sensibili della tua carta saranno protetti ad ogni transazione.
Request an additional free virtual card
Tutti i clienti gipay, con conto privato o aziendale, possono richiedere una o più carte virtuali aggiuntive. Questa opzione ti offre comodità e un livello di sicurezza più elevato: ad esempio, puoi effettuare acquisti online senza dover condividere i dettagli della tua carta principale, oltre ad aggiungere un metodo di pagamento aggiuntivo al tuo portafoglio digitale per gli acquisti in negozio.
