Card network
Every SaveApp card is a UnionPay card, so your customers can pay wherever UnionPay is accepted.
UnionPay cards, issued by you
Give every customer a card, straight from your own systems.
SaveApp lets businesses anywhere in the world issue and manage prepaid UnionPay cards through a simple API, and keeps your team, verification and card activity in one merchant portal.
- Business verification in four steps
- IP-whitelisted API keys
- Signed webhooks for every card event
Our partners
Built with a bank, a card network and a payments partner
Issuing bank
United Bank for Africa issues the prepaid UnionPay cards you give your customers.
Card customer and wallet partner
SasaPay issues SaveApp UnionPay cards to its own customers through our API, and powers wallet as a service, coming soon to SaveApp.
What you get
Everything you need to run cards for your customers
Cards API
Issue a card to a mobile number, check its status, balance and transactions, block or replace it. All from your own app or back office.
Webhooks with logs
Get card transactions and one-time codes the moment UnionPay reports them, signed so you know they came from SaveApp. See a month of deliveries in the portal.
Keys you control
Create API keys per system, choose what each can do and which IP addresses may use it. Rotate or switch a key off and it stops working at once.
Your whole team
Invite colleagues, give them roles and decide exactly what each role can see and do. One login covers every business they work with.
Guided verification
Upload the documents your country needs and follow the review in the portal. If something needs fixing, you see exactly what and why.
Safe by default
Secrets are stored hashed, full card numbers are never stored, and one-time codes are masked in logs.
