Time is money: How virtual credit cards boost e-commerce efficiency

Struggles e-commerce businesses face with traditional banks


1. Long payment times for international purchases:

Traditional banks often rely on wire transfers for international payments, resulting in significant delays. This can hinder e-commerce businesses, particularly when sourcing products from abroad, such as China. Pliant, on the other hand, offers virtual credit cards that facilitate instant payments globally, eliminating the need for time-consuming wire transfers.

2. Marketing card blockage due to high spending:

E-commerce businesses heavily rely on marketing campaigns to stay ahead of fashion trends and sales seasons. However, traditional banks may block marketing cards when spending reaches high levels. With Pliant, businesses can enjoy the freedom to fully capitalize on marketing campaigns without worrying about sudden card blockages.

3. Long handling times in the supply chain:

The e-commerce industry involves multiple parties in the supply chain, each with their own processing times. This can lead to delays in inventory acquisition and hinder business growth. By leveraging Pliant's virtual credit cards and efficient integrations, e-commerce businesses can streamline the supply chain process, reducing handling times and ensuring smoother operations.
