AstroPay, the online payment solution of choice for millions of users worldwide, has announced the launch of a Visa prepaid card in Peru issued by Tebca Perú, that will allow users to make purchases at any e-commerce store that accepts Visa. The launch is part of the company’s growth plans and ambition to empower customers – especially those without a bank account – to access the digital economy and engage in online transactions.

AstroPay launched the Visa debit card issued by Tebca Perú, for their existing and new users offering a very simple, secure, and convenient experience to enter the financial system. They will be able to activate and use the prepaid card instantly without any charge, pay in any online merchant that accepts Visa, and the card also comes with attractive benefits including cashback.

Peru is a key target for AstroPay due to the rapid growth and developments in their payments industry. There is also a wide acceptance of Visa across the country. The Visa prepaid card will allow users to shop on any site that accepts VISA across the globe and users will be able to pay in both American dollars and Peruvian Soles.

AstroPay plans to expand its prepaid card product across a range of territories, having previously launched this product in the UK, now Peru – their next objective will be to expand across the rest of Latin America, targeting Brazil, Mexico, and Argentina.
