Questions & answers
What makes Loquat’s card offering different from traditional debit and credit cards?

Loquat seamlessly integrates with your financial institution’s existing core systems and digital banking platforms to enable instant virtual debit card issuance at the moment of account opening. Our platform also supports real-time tokenization, allowing you to provision cards to Apple Pay, Google Pay, and other wallets immediately — driving instant engagement and top-of-wallet status from day one.

It’s considered best practice to issue a debit card at the time of account opening to increase activation rates and client stickiness. With Loquat, your clients can start transacting within minutes, while your financial institution benefits from enhanced interchange revenue, higher product adoption, and improved digital engagement.

Our cards are purpose-built for consumer and business use, offering flexible controls, role-based permissions, and robust security features — far beyond the limitations of traditional consumer card programs.

In addition to instant debit card issuance, Loquat enables your financial institution to offer credit card pre-qualification during account onboarding — helping you identify eligible clients early in the relationship. With no impact to credit scores, clients can view tailored credit offers within minutes, boosting engagement, deepening wallet share, and accelerating product adoption from day one.

How quickly can my clients start using cards after account opening?

Virtual cards are issued instantly upon account opening, allowing your consumer and business clients to begin using them immediately for transactions without waiting for physical cards to arrive.

Can my clients get physical cards in addition to virtual cards?

Yes! While virtual cards provide immediate access to funds, companion physical cards can also be issued to businesses that prefer having a tangible payment option.

How do Loquat’s virtual cards enhance security for online transactions?

Each virtual card has unique card details (card number, expiration date, and security code), which keeps the primary account secure if a card is compromised. This limited exposure model protects clients’ credit card information from potential fraud and data breaches during online transactions.

Can virtual cards be restricted to specific merchants?

Yes, virtual cards can be designated for use with specific merchants only, adding an additional layer of security and control over business spending.

Is it possible to create single-use virtual cards?

Yes, Loquat’s platform allows for the creation of one-time-use virtual cards, which are ideal for single purchases where enhanced security is desired.

How does offering Loquat’s virtual card solution benefit my financial institution?

By offering Loquat’s virtual card solution, you can enhance your competitive position in the  consumer and business markets with an innovative, secure, and convenient payment option that meets the evolving needs of your clients. This can help attract new consumer and business clients and strengthen relationships with existing ones.
