Issuer Bank

How Issuer Bank Works

As an issuer of cards, the bank manages every stage of the cardholder relationship. It authorizes transactions, assumes financial liability for purchases, and ensures secure, compliant payment processing. The issuer also handles card activation, replacement, credit limits, spending controls, and dispute resolution, while maintaining rigorous security standards to protect sensitive data.

In Akurateco’s customizable payment orchestration infrastructure, an issuer bank facilitates smooth, real-time transaction authorization and cardholder management.
