Case Study: Uplift achieves real-time payment assurance and scalable virtual‑card capability with WEX

Uplift - Customer Case Study

Uplift, a leading BNPL fintech serving major retail and travel brands, faced the challenge of coordinating multiple real-time touchpoints — shoppers, call center agents, loan providers and suppliers — and needed a scalable, data-rich payments partner. Uplift selected WEX and its enterprise-grade virtual card program to provide integrated virtual card issuance and real-time authorization visibility.

WEX implemented a virtual card solution delivering real-time commercial payment assurance, robust transaction data, immediate authorization transparency and precise merchant/amount controls, and has co-developed custom configurations with Uplift as their business evolved. The WEX platform removed payment complexity, enabling Uplift to expand services and enter new markets with zero additional payments effort and to launch a late-2021 product that lets borrowers apply available credit to online trip-related purchases.
