Empowering companies with a complete platform to issue, track, and manage card spend—driving greater control, insight, and efficiency.

PITTSBURGH & NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Extend, a leading artificial intelligence-powered spend and expense management platform, and PNC Bank, one of the nation's largest diversified financial services organizations, today announced new modern payment capabilities for PNC’s commercial clients. By enrolling their existing PNC Bank commercial cards, businesses can access Extend’s mobile and web platform—unlocking a full suite of digital tools to control, manage, and optimize business spend within minutes.

With these new capabilities, PNC commercial clients can gain greater control and transparency around how they manage virtual card issuance—from everyday one-off payments to department budgets. The solution allows clients to instantly issue and deliver virtual cards to themselves, employees, and vendors, which can also be added to mobile wallets for secure, tap-to-pay transactions at the point of sale.

“Business owners are looking for smarter and more secure ways to manage payments,” Andrew Jamison, CEO of Extend, said. “By collaborating with PNC Bank, we’re giving clients the flexibility to issue and track virtual cards directly through their existing accounts. Whether it’s managing subscriptions, empowering employees, or making secure vendor payments, this partnership makes everyday business spend easier to control.”

“At PNC, we are constantly seeking opportunities to help our clients run their businesses more efficiently,” Tom Lang, executive vice president and head of Treasury Management Product and Operations at PNC, said. “Through our collaboration with Extend, we’re delivering an intuitive, easy-to-use solution that helps businesses simplify spend, strengthen security, and optimize payments.”

With these capabilities, businesses using PNC Bank commercial cards can:

Pay vendors with unique virtual cards to minimize the disruption and headaches of card fraud.
