Speed of execution is now a defining factor in digital payments. New services must be launched quickly. Pricing models evolve. Partnerships change. But for card issuers, the real issue isn’t what’s changing. It’s whether their platform can support that change at business speed. And this is where cracks start showing.

Many issuers still rely on environments where even small adjustments require development. Teams depend on coding, testing, and release cycles, even when the change is commercial rather than technical.

If an organization wants to configure without coding — to respond instantly to change — it needs a platform that allows business teams to define services, rules, and controls directly, without waiting for IT delivery.

When these conditions are met, product management becomes faster and more responsive. Adjustments that previously required technical work become part of daily operations. Product owners stay closer to market demand and can respond to change as it happens.

Platforms like Way4 by OpenWay change the model. On Way4, 95% of card issuing features can be configured without coding. This gives business teams far greater control over how services are delivered, reduces IT dependency, and shortens time to market.

In the second OpenWay expert insights interview, Anton Klimov, Solution Manager for Way4 Card Issuing, shares how this works in practice on Way4 and why it matters for the future of card issuing.
