Tapeeze is a Swedish fintech company that enables banks, crypto companies, fintechs and lifestyle brands to launch premium tokenized physical payment cards. Tapeeze cards use the same tokenization standard as Apple Pay and Google Pay, meaning no card number, no CVV and no cardholder name is printed on the card. All credentials are stored as a secure digital token, provisioned via Fidesmo Pay and accepted everywhere Mastercard and Visa are supported. Tapeeze handles the full card infrastructure, from design and tokenization to global distribution and user activation, allowing any company to launch a physical card product in as little as two weeks, without a banking license or new card program.

How does a Tapeeze card work?

Tapeeze cards are pre-configured globally and activated by the end user through tokenization. The user downloads the Tapeeze app, holds the physical card against their phone using NFC, and links their existing bank card. The card receives a secure payment token via Fidesmo Pay and is ready to use at any contactless payment terminal worldwide. No new bank account is required. Activation takes approximately 60 seconds.

How long does it take to launch a Tapeeze card?

From brief to live typically takes two weeks. Tapeeze handles card infrastructure, tokenization and global distribution. No card personalization at the factory is required, and no banking license is needed.

Which banks are supported?

Tapeeze works with existing bank cards via Fidesmo Pay, which is connected to over 880 banks worldwide supporting Mastercard and Visa. No new card program or BIN sponsorship is required.

What materials are available for Tapeeze cards?

Tapeeze cards are available in metal, ceramic, wood, LED-edge and R-PVC. Full creative freedom on design, colors and finish.

Launch a new card experience. Not a new card programme.

Premium physical cards for every programme – PVC, metal, ceramic, wood or LED. On the BIN you already have. Live in weeks from design approval, not months.
