Startup

NAVIT – a B2B mobility benefit platform – helps companies to offer their employees a flexible, CO₂-neutral mobility budget. With a single-card solution, the startup empowers companies to enable employees to use all means of transport, from trains to electric scooters to ride-hailing. For this purpose, individual mobility budgets are allocated that cover the needs of the respective employee. With the employee mobility market still in its infancy, NAVIT has undoubtedly succeeded in standing out with its sustainable approach.

Challenge

To further drive the growth of its mobility platform and increase customer satisfaction, NAVIT realized the potential in product innovation. One pivot in the product development strategy was to integrate the NAVIT mobility card into the app. However, the deployment of a payment card in Germany comes with some challenges:

  1. NAVIT was searching for a licensed partner that covers all regulatory requirements when it comes to offering virtual prepaid cards to customers, such as the mobility budget card, which is mandatory in Germany.

  2. For NAVIT to offer attractive employee benefits to companies competing for talent, each B2B product launched should be perfectly aligned with different mobility needs and fit seamlessly into flexible working models.

Our solution

Mobility Card – the next level of employee benefits

Mobility Card – the next level of employee benefits

NAVIT is leveraging Solaris’ banking license and tech infrastructure to issue corporate virtual prepaid cards as part of an employer benefit model. Their mobility card simplifies the use of flexible budgets and makes all means of transport (trains, cabs, cars, bike sharing, ride-hailing) accessible via the integrated virtual Visa card. The virtual card works worldwide - making traveling abroad for the business completely stress-free. What makes NAVIT even more unique is the fact that the company automatically offsets all the employee mobility emissions, thus meeting today’s sustainability targets.

Top-notch digital identification

Top-notch digital identification

After a NAVIT partner company completes the onboarding process on the NAVIT website, the Solaris Business KYC process is initiated. Solaris' Business KYC process is an AML-compliant solution that streamlines new customer identification time and reduces the qualification procedure to less than 48 hours. After successful BKYC and KYC of the legal representatives, a virtual IBAN is created. Afterward, companies can deposit funds, which then are distributed by NAVIT to the corresponding virtual prepaid card accounts. Once the funds are distributed, the employees can use the virtual mobility prepaid card at their convenience.
