UK-based financial services company HSBC has launched its virtual cards solution in partnership with Oracle and Mastercard.

HSBC is one of the first banks to adopt the integrated solution, with plans to provide virtual cards to its customers and Oracle’s initially in the US and UK, followed by a global launch. Currently, HSBC focuses on embedding its financial services into systems that its customers use on a daily basis, including Oracle Cloud ERP. 

The collaboration’s offering

HSBC’s customers can use the service to manage cash flow, improve fraud protection, and potentially generate financial rebates. Moreover, suppliers can benefit from faster payments, decreased collection risk, and streamlined accounts receivable.

Officials from Oracle highlighted that the partnership addresses the issues in B2B transactions, including complexity and inefficiency, by providing organisations with cash management solutions, access to credit, secure financing, and improved decision-making. After Mastercard’s virtual cards are embedded, HSBC’s customers can get paid rapidly and securely through Mastercard’s global payments network.
