The retail sector is witnessing a significant shift towards e-commerce, which has been accelerated by the ongoing pandemic.

To adapt to this digital transformation, retailers are investing heavily in improving their online customer experience and payment processes.

Marqeta, the global modern card issuing platform, has recently announced partnerships with two customers in the retail space, Extend and Financeit, to enhance customer loyalty and deliver seamless experiences.

Enhancing customer loyalty and efficiency

Extend, a leading provider of technology-enabled product protection, has collaborated with Marqeta to streamline the replacement process for customers.

 This partnership offers consumers a virtual card issued instantly after a claim is approved.

This virtual card covers the replacement cost for products lost, damaged, or stolen during shipment, as well as products that are accidentally damaged or stop working.
