Today, creative agencies are widely adopting virtual cards for ad payments. Why? Virtual cards offer complete control over spending, ensuring quick and secure payments on ad platforms.
In this article, we’ll explore the benefits of virtual cards for media buying and discover why they’re ideal for managing large budgets.
Virtual Cards for Budget Management
Ad agencies often operate with fixed budgets for campaigns, making it critical for media buyers to avoid overspending. However, some ad platforms may block ad accounts if funds aren’t replenished on time.
Credit cards for ads solve these issues, as they don’t have a set limit, but the cardholder can set their own spending cap. With the ability to create unlimited virtual cards, agencies can assign separate cards to each client or campaign, simplifying expense tracking.
PSTNET’s virtual cards are highly rated among media buyers and agencies. Let’s examine their advantages and see why they’re recommended for managing large budgets.
