Al Ansari Exchange Launches Instant Digital Issuance for Prepaid Cards, Boosting Financial Inclusion in the UAE

Customers can now access TravelCard and FlexiblePay cards instantly via mobile app, supporting the UAE’s cashless and digital economy vision

Al Ansari Exchange, the UAE’s largest remittance and foreign exchange provider and a subsidiary of Al Ansari Financial Services PJSC, has launched a new digital issuance feature for its popular prepaid cards—TravelCard and FlexiblePay. The initiative is designed to promote financial inclusion and further support the UAE’s national drive toward a cashless digital economy.

Available via the Al Ansari Exchange mobile app, customers can now apply for and receive a 16-digit Visa co-branded digital card in a matter of seconds, without the need to visit a physical branch. The digital cards can be immediately used for payments and are compatible with Apple Pay, Samsung Pay, and Google Pay, offering a seamless and secure contactless payment experience.

“We are thrilled to introduce the digital issuance of our TravelCard and FlexiblePay cards. This innovation reflects our commitment to delivering cutting-edge, secure, and convenient financial solutions while promoting broader financial inclusion across the UAE.”

The TravelCard is designed for international travelers, offering features such as:

Multi-currency support
Competitive exchange rates
Global acceptance at millions of locations

The FlexiblePay card, on the other hand, caters to everyday financial needs with:

Easy reload options
Online shopping compatibility
Integrated wallet access

Both cards come equipped with advanced security features to ensure safe digital transactions and protect user data.

The launch is part of Al Ansari Exchange’s broader mission to digitally empower users and align with the UAE’s digital economy strategy. The company is leveraging its expansive network and fast-growing digital platforms to make financial services more accessible, inclusive, and user-friendly for residents from all walks of life.
