Virtual cards are a digital alternative to physical credit or debit cards, offering real-time issuance, customisable limits, and transparent spending to streamline expense management and enhance financial oversight. Businesses can generate cards instantly, assign them to team members, set spending limits, and freeze/unfreeze access when needed.
Built to simplify B2B payments, payabl.'s Virtual Business Cards are ideal for e-commerce companies needing extra transaction security, start-ups and scale-ups managing supplier budgets and global teams with travel and multi-currency expenses.
The new proposition further strengthens payabl.'s Business Accounts offering and underpins the company's commitment to helping businesses stay ahead in today's rapidly evolving payments landscape.
Ugne Buraciene, Group CEO of payabl., said: 'With the launch of our virtual cards service, we're making it easier for companies to take greater control of their payments. From improved oversight of spending, to the ability to set budgets and ensure the highest level of security, payabl. is removing the friction from payments so businesses can focus on what really matters: growing their businesses and better serving their customers and partners.'
payabl.'s virtual cards service has been designed specifically to meet growing merchant demand and usage, with the total volume of virtual card transactions expected to reach 175 billion by 2028, rising from 36 billion in 2023*. The value that virtual cards bring to businesses is evident, with 94% of firms that use them saying their transactions are faster, more detailed, and more secure**.
Breno Oliveira, Head of Product at payabl., added: "The virtual cards market is booming, with transactions now in the billions and set to rise significantly. While much focus has been on consumer use cases, the value they can bring to businesses in cutting admin time spent on payments and boosting productivity is evident. And at payabl., we're unlocking those benefits for more businesses.'
Card issuance now sits alongside payabl.'s wide range of payment solutions, including card acquiring, local payment methods, and point-of-sale (POS) terminals. Its Business Accounts enable customers to send, receive, and manage multi-currency payments 24/7/365, with access to an all-in-one dashboard and dedicated client relationship managers.

Crystal Palace line up £40m-rated AC Milan star Strahinja Pavlovic in Marc Guehi replacement transfer

OLIVER GLASNER will make a new move to sign AC Milan's Strahinja Pavlovic with the Italian club wanting £40million. The Crystal Palace boss thinks the powerful Serb would be an ideal addition with Europe on the agenda next term. 1 Centre-back Pavlovic, 24, only moved from RB Salzburg for £15m a year ago but Palace have been tracking him for months. Boss Glasner wants extra competition at the back but the Eagles will not pay over the top and could start the bidding at just £25m. Glasner is a huge fan of Pavlovic's — who was a regular in Milan's Serie A and Champions League campaigns — so it is an ambitious target. He scored two goals and provided just as many assists in 35 appearances from centre-back this term. Meanwhile, Pavlovic started six of Milan's ten Champions League games, and 21 Serie A matches. Palace qualified for next seasons Europa League after beating Manchester City in a shock 1-0 win in the FA Cup final. But the club's European status is under threat from Uefa because owner John Textor also owns shares in Lyon. Juventus' Tiago Djalo, 25, is an alternative. Palace are possibly in the market for two defenders, especially if Marc Guehi leaves. Burnley's Maxime Esteve, 23, is also admired. Meanwhile, Palace are in talks with striker Jean-Philippe Mateta over signing a new contract. The 27-year-old was a standout performer in Glasner's side last season, scoring 17 goals in all competitions as Palace won the FA Cup - their first major trophy.

Rangers don't need to cash-in on best players ahead of summer rebuild, insists new boss Martin

Russell Martin insists Rangers will be under no obligation to sell any of their star players during a major summer rebuild. Martin was appointed as the Ibrox club's new head coach on Thursday on a three-year deal and will be tasked with revamping the squad and playing style. With fresh investment of around £20million coming from the club's new American owners, chief executive Patrick Stewart has stated that 'a decent amount' of that will be made available to Martin. Nico Raskin and Mohamed Diomande have both been strongly linked with moves away from Rangers this summer. Midfield duo Raskin and Diomande are two of the club's top assets and have attracted interest from the English Premier League and across Europe. Any money raised from player sales will be reinvested in the squad, but new boss Martin insists the club are under no pressure whatsoever to sell. Asked about retaining top talent, he said: 'We have to try and keep our best players. I think we're all really aligned with that. 'So unless things come in that really help the club to build and move forward, I don't think it's a necessity to do that [sell] at all. That's my understanding of it. 'And we've all been really clear on it. So we'll just have to wait and see. But I'm looking forward to working with those guys. 'There are a few positions where we'll need to strengthen fairly quickly and fairly early on [with regards to Champions League qualifiers in July]. 'I'm pretty sure by then we'll have one or two in. I'm also willing to be surprised and I'm open to being surprised by some of the players we have here. 'I feel excited about the challenge of Europe, yeah. I think it's different in terms of obviously having a bit less awareness of the opposition, which is going to take a bit more working. 'But it's going to be about us. Whether we're playing in Europe, in the league, in the cup, whatever it is, it's going to be about us and trying to be the best we can be. 'But to experience that, the thought of having European nights here, it's hugely exciting and appealing. So we have to try and make that happen.' During his short loan stint at Rangers back in 2018, Martin played alongside club captain James Tavernier. The new head coach insists he is full of respect for the skipper, who has one year left on his deal. Despite Tavernier continuing to divide opinion among fans, Martin sees no immediate reason to change the captaincy. 'First and foremost, I'll speak to Tav, to explain things and have a discussion about the last two years, his thoughts on the team,' said the new Ibrox boss. 'I'll get his thoughts on what we're going to bring and how the players will feel about that. 'I think to play here for as long as he has, to be captain for as long as he has, takes a lot of energy. It's not easy. 'I've been at a club where sometimes you're the one that's been there the longest and you end up getting criticised a lot because you've been there the longest. You're an ageing player and all that stuff. 'I think he's been so important for this team and this club on and off the pitch and I'm looking forward to chatting in more detail with him and speaking to him about it all. 'Then how much he gets used on the pitch will be down to Tav and how he trains and how he plays, the same as every player. 'But he's going to be hugely important in the culture. I know what he's like a person behind the scenes and he's fantastic. 'He really was when I played with him and hopefully football hasn't beaten him up too much. It doesn't seem like it has. He still seems like he plays with a big smile and a lot of enthusiasm. 'It does carry a big weight to be captain of a club this size. I think he's done it incredibly well. 'How much he plays on the pitch, I can't sit here and tell you he's going to play 50 games, 20 games, whatever. It will be down to him in the way he performs and the way he buys into it, which I'm pretty sure he will. 'He's been the captain for a very long time. I don't see any reason to change that. And if he's not playing, it will be someone else.'

Crystal Palace set to learn Europa League fate this week as co-owner looks to buy out John Textor

JOSH HARRIS wants to buy out John Textor in the latest tug of war at Crystal Palace. Textor owns around 45 per cent of the club and was planning to make a move on Harris and David Blitzer — who have 18 per cent each — to purchase their shares. 3 3 3 But that has failed so far — with Textor now willing to sell up to avoid Palace being booted out of the Europa League due to Uefa's rules on multi-club ownership. The European governing body's regulations mean Textor, majority owner of Lyon, cannot have influence at two clubs in the same competition. But a sale is unlikely to be quick and will not impact the decision of Uefa chiefs. And Harris is looking to pay a smaller sum than his US compatriot wants. Textor, whose Palace club won entry to the Europa League through winning the FA Cup, does not have a majority stake and only 25 per cent of voting rights. Palace hope that relatively low figure will help their case with Uefa, who are expected to deliver a verdict next week. Lyon are also set to feature in the competition having finished higher than Palace domestically, with a sixth-placed finish in the Ligue 1 last season. Uefa rules prohibit anyone from "simultaneously be involved in any capacity whatsoever in the management, administration, and/or sporting performance of more than one club participating in a Uefa club competition." The prospect of Palace dropping into the Conference League is also nigh-on impossible too. This is because other shareholder David Blizter also has a stake in Danish oufit Brondby, who are set to play in European football 's tertiary club competition next season. In a desperate bid to see the Eagles fly across Europe next season and comply with Uefa rules, Textor and Blizter offered to put their shares in a blind trust. But Uefa chiefs have REJECTED the offer, leaving Palace's proposed European adventure next season in limbo.
