Paynetics Card Issuing vs Unit

Paynetics Card Issuing provides configurable card programs for businesses and their partners. Its range includes physical, virtual, digitized prepaid, debit, credit, and business cards from Visa and Mastercard. Partners can customize card designs and configure rules, limits, controls, hierarchies, products, and pricing levels. Cards can be linked to dedicated IBAN accounts or integrated into an eWallet. The API platform supports digital onboarding and data exchange for compliance, risk analysis, and monitoring; its integration channel includes a REST API for accounts, issuing, transfers, and onboarding, plus a partner portal. Developer resources include APIs, SDKs, sandbox tools, and live operational status. Paynetics supports Apple Pay on iOS and an Android tokenisation solution based on Mastercard’s MDES protocol. A PCI-compliant SDK supports secure card-data display without partners storing or processing sensitive details. Physical card orders require at least 1,000 units, and manufacturing typically takes around two months. Pricing is on request.

Unit provides financial infrastructure for businesses that want to offer financial services inside their own products. Its building blocks include deposit and wallet accounts, cards, credit products, and payments through ACH, wires, RTP, checks, and international payments. A native ledger records transactions with settlement-level visibility. Developers can work through an API, customer tokens, simulations, open-source SDKs, and data warehouse sync, or use optional brandable UI components for web and mobile web, React Native, Android, and iOS. The Dashboard includes SAML 2.0 single sign-on, multi-factor authentication, and team roles and permissions. Managed Solutions can build and operate Banking or Bill Pay modules and provide end-customer support under a client's brand. Unit lists integrations including Plaid, Yodlee, Intuit, and AWS S3. It identifies itself as a financial technology company, not a bank; partner banks provide banking services. Pricing is available on request.
