TxVia, Inc., a leader in transaction processing technology for emerging payments and financial services, today announced that it has been
certified by Discover Financial Services (NYSE: DFS) to process for issuers and program managers using the Discover network.
The relationship will support processing for a number of TxVia clients, including InteliSpend Prepaid Solutions, with which Discover announced an issuance and program management agreement earlier this year for point-based, commissionable restricted authorization network (RAN)
prepaid cards as well as other products.
“The certification of TxVia as a Discover processor allows us to ensure the availability of leading enabling technology to partners offering innovative payment products,” said Farhan Ahmad, general manager of prepaid and director of emerging payments at Discover.
