Tide Expense Card Adds NCMC Support for Simplified SME Commute
Tide, a financial management platform, has made it easier for small businesses to travel and manage expenses.
They've added support for India's National Common Mobility Card (NCMC) to their expense cards.
This means business owners can use one card to pay for the metro, buses, tolls, and parking.
They can also manage their spending in the Tide app.
They can recharge their cards instantly.
This makes it easier for business owners to travel and manage their money all in one place.
Tide integrated NCMC support into its RuPay-powered Expense Card.
The new feature allows users to pay for public transit and business travel with one card.
Users can top-up cards and check balances through the Tide app.
This helps entrepreneurs and SMEs manage travel and business spending in one place.
Tide has over 800,000 SME users in India.
