Card based lending solutions

Card-based financial products provide a seamless and flexible way for businesses and consumers to access credit, manage spending, and enable transactions. Whether issuing credit cards, charge cards, prepaid cards, or specialized corporate cards, Canopy provides the tools to model, manage, and scale these products with precision.

At their core, card-based products are financial instruments that allow users to access funds or credit within predefined rules. These products can be structured to enable revolving credit, require full-cycle payments, or function as stored-value accounts. Canopy’s system is designed to handle the complexity of various card types, from interest calculations and rewards management to compliance and risk control.
