Opn’s card issuing platform offers many benefits to its customers:
• Customizable branded cards with reward programs, such as cashback and loyalty points, help strengthen customer loyalty

“We can now enable banks and nonbank financial institutions, as well as merchants and other businesses, in Thailand to easily and quickly embed our card issuing solution to provide innovative financial services. At the same time, consumers in Thailand will benefit from enhanced access to financial services they previously lacked,” said President and Co-founder Ezra Don Harinsut.
Credit card ownership in Thailand is 23%*2 while 63% of the population is unbanked or underbanked,*3 without a bank account or access to basic financial services.
