Choosing the right API for instant debit card numbers

[Sterlzever]

Hi everyone, am new to Visa APIs, please can anyone help me out with the right API that I can use to generate an instant debit card numbers for my users so that they can be used for online transactions such as buying goods and paying for services online with the issued instant debit card. I want to know the exact API so that I can use it to complete my project production. Honestly this is my first time of running card integration.

Hi @Sterlzever, 

Visa is a processor, not an issuer, and does not issue Visa debit, credit, prepaid, gift, and/or physical cards. Visa works with issuing banks to issue Visa cards. Essentially, you will need to be a licensed financial institution in order to issue cards.

I recommend checking out Visa Partner to find a partner that can help with your use case and need of card number generation.

If you have a virtual card use case, the Visa Token Services APIs (https://developer.visa.com/capabilities/vts) are the closest thing to being a good fit for a virtual card use case.  You can visit our detailed product page at Visa Ready to submit any specific queries about the product through Visa Ready using the ‘Contact Us’ link. 

Thanks,
