Acceptance and identity
Acceptance infrastructure, merchant relationships, tokenization and identity support use across the network.
STATIC Card Network
The long-term network layer for acceptance, authorization, settlement and dispute rules.
INSIDE STATIC CARD NETWORK
Purpose, systems, and connections.
Card Network is the network-level infrastructure position under STATIC Rails. It connects institutions, merchants and credentials through shared operating rules rather than being only a card brand.
Transaction operations
Risk, authorization, clearing and settlement are distinct parts of the network operation.
Rules and recourse
Certification and dispute infrastructure govern participation and handling of eligible transaction issues.
How it connects
An initial STATIC card program can use partner issuing and existing networks. Building a card product and operating a card network are separate undertakings.
