“Can a traditional Jordanian boutique bank modernize its card and digital payment infrastructure fast enough to compete with digital-first entrants in the MENA region?”
INVESTBANK is a long-established Jordanian commercial bank (~40 years) that has been modernizing its payments and card infrastructure by partnering with technology vendors. The 2021 partnership with i2c marked a key step toward cloud-based card issuing and acquiring. The bank has added digital wallet integrations (Apple Pay, Google Pay) and instant card issuance via PayLogic, reflecting a broader push toward digital banking without a full neobank pivot.
