Virtual card payments are playing a key role in this growth, with B2B virtual card spend forecasted to exceed $14 trillion by 2029. This surge reflects a growing demand among businesses for digital solutions that enhance payment processing efficiency, automate receivables, and strengthen cash flow management. On the key partnership, Founder, Managing Director and CEO Nayef Tawfeeq Al Alawi, said: "EazyPay supports businesses with digital payment solutions designed to simplify operations and elevate the customer experience. As virtual cards gain traction for supplier payments, Mastercard Receivables Manager empowers us to strengthen the B2B payments ecosystem across key industries and large market segments."

Receivables Manager addresses a critical challenge for suppliers managing high volumes of virtual card payments by automating processing, reducing time and boosting efficiency," he stated.
