A next generation embedded financial services company with a keen focus on B2B Software-as-a-Service (SaaS), HUBUC’s innovative platform with Mastercard as the partner of choice, can help improving new customer’s existing product offering with secure and programmable virtual and physical cards to:

  • Improve business spending management
  • Offer unique employee benefits
  • Facilitate flexible salary payouts

This will benefit companies looking to integrate payment products for uses such as:

  • Digital payments
  • Corporate expense management
  • Benefit/loyalty programs

Additionally, HUBUC's exposure to clients in the European Union and the UK makes it a potential partner for any Fintech and B2B SaaS company located in this region. By partnering with such essential companies like Mastercard, HUBUC is staying close to the core of the payment industry.

“Partnering with Mastercard through the Fintech Express program is the latest milestone for HUBUC, a move that allows us to further expand our footprint in Spain and throughout the European Union and the United Kingdom,” said HUBUC CEO Hasan Nawaz. “Through this partnership with Mastercard, HUBUC is working with a global leader, allowing us to work within world’s epicenter for financial services and payments overall.”

“Mastercard is thrilled to welcome HUBUC to our program as we work together to transform the future of commerce and expand new innovative payment solutions across Europe. This is a great partnership since we both support innovation, better payment experiences and new possibilities for other players in the ecosystem”, said Jason Lane, Executive Vice President, Market Development for Mastercard Europe.
