## Architecture 

A key thing about Wise's Card Issuance is that all Wise cards are linked to a Wise [Multi-Currency Account (MCA)](/guides/product/accounts/managing-accounts). An MCA provides multiple balances in different currencies (i.e USD, SGD, EUR) for the card.

## Authentication  

Depending on your partner model, the authentication model will vary. Please see our [connection guides](/guides) to see which is applicable to your integration
