FAQ
What are card-linked rewards?
Cashback, offers and loyalty attached directly to card transactions - the engagement layer of a card programme. Fintechnologica lists 8 verified providers (4 European-origin).
Why is data residency critical here?
Card-linked offers read the raw transaction stream - the most sensitive behavioural data a fintech holds. Keeping that processing with a European provider in the EEA is a GDPR/CLOUD Act decision, not just a preference.
