Card Compact Ltd - From living room to number 1 in Europe

It all started in 2008 in Anton's living room. 


At the time, the founder of Card Compact was looking for a secure payment method for internet purchases for his children.


However, prepaid cards were generally only known as phone cards until then. After a lot of research, Anton finally decided on a card from Great Britain, as the offer in Germany was only suitable to a limited extent. Great Britain is one of the market leaders in prepaid cards. Numerous important suppliers and licensing partners are located in the world financial market in London. In addition to this excellent infrastructure, the market also offers the necessary know-how.


It was therefore clear that Germany had a lot of catching up to do in this area. Not only should the concept of the prepaid card be more firmly established, but the range of reputable providers should also be increased. The countless advantages and possibilities, which extend far beyond the telecommunications sector, were to be brought closer to German consumers.


In 2009, Anton then implemented the first prepaid card programme with an Austrian bank. Only a short time later, he met Colin. Colin Greaves, who at that time already had a decade of experience in the industry, had already managed several prepaid card companies in the past and led them to the top.


With their extensive experience, nothing stood in the way of creating an infrastructure for companies wanting to set up their own card programmes. Since 2011, Card Compact Ltd. has grown steadily and is now present in several European countries.


Today, Card Compact Ltd. is Europe's number 1 programme manager.
