The card, according to Airplus, offers a central touch point for all matters across all 19 European nations rather than using various national banking partners.
AirPlus International CEO Patrick Diemer said: “With the new European Corporate Card Solution, AirPlus meets the need of multinational customers to standardize payment processes.
“AirPlus customers and their employees can now count on a single partner who centralizes, simplifies and harmonizes all processes: from the implementation of the card program to payment and reporting.”
The card can be used to pay securely for business-related expenses during trips at more than 44 million Mastercard acceptance points in 210 countries and territories across the globe.
