Publ°k Visa Card:

A smart, flexible base for countless use cases

Publ°k specializes in digitizing payment processes in the public sector and in companies quickly and easily without additional IT infrastructure. To this end, the GovTech company, founded in 2023, has developed card-based solutions that are tailored to all requirements as well as legal and regulatory specifications.

Less effort, greater impact –
with Publ°k’s smart card solutions

Publ°k develops innovative, card-based solutions that help public authorities, universities, NGOs and businesses digitize payout processes in a transparent and user-friendly way. Until now, payouts have often been made in cash or vouchers – a process that consumes significant staff time and effort. Our digital card solutions eliminate that burden. Our solution offers municipalities and public authorities a modern, accessible frontend that meets the highest standards of user-friendliness. In addition, our solution can be seamlessly integrated into existing systems through a standardized API interface.

Whether it’s the SocialCard for cashless distribution of social benefits, the ProcureCard for fast and flexible procurement payments, the StudentCard for streamlined scholarship disbursements, or the BenefitCard as a tax-free employee perk—our solutions are tailored to your needs and bring real relief for both administrators and users.

Voices of Publ°k customers

A recent pilot study by Nortal and Visa Consulting & Analytics confirms: the SocialCard makes social benefit payouts simpler, reduces admin effort, and ensures inclusive participation.

‘The use of the SocialCard in the state capital of Magdeburg in Saxony-Anhalt reduces the administrative burden there by up to 90 per cent compared to cash payments.’

‘With the introduction of the payment card, we quickly issued 600 cards and hope that this will create synergy effects that simplify administration. For us, the payment card is another step towards digitising administration.’

‘Standing in line is a thing of the past. Here in Hanover alone, this step has freed up six […] administrative staff members, whom we no longer need to deploy there but can instead assign to more meaningful tasks [be able to]. […] The entire administrative clutter is gone.‘
