Also if you have the correct role you can:

The Virtual Card has been developed as a Progressive Web Application (known as a PWA, a new generation of web app that provide native app-like user experience. PWA are apps which are built using modern browser technologies to deliver enhanced user experience to anyone, anywhere and on any device).  People can install the PWA on their device, this is not compulsory and will still function in a browser if you scan a card using the camera.

 

PWA install instructions:

  • Android

  1. Visit the https://jnctn.app URL on your preferred browser.
  2. Click Install on the Jnctn can be Installed pop-up to install the app.
