    For webmasters, the service provides an opportunity to pay for advertising on all popular platforms: FB*, Google, TikTok, Bing and others, as well as services for work (VPN, hosting, anti-detect browsers and so on).

    Our main partners are large media buying teams and marketing agencies. Therefore, special attention is paid to team functionality, dashboard and API. With the help of these and other features, team leaders can organize their work more efficiently.

    Affiliate networks can use MyBrocard as a convenient and free way for their webmasters to withdraw funds. By withdrawing funds directly from the affiliate network, the webmaster speeds up the process and the commission on replenishment is reduced.

Alex Miller: A few more detailed questions about connecting to your service, costs and limitations.

How quickly can a virtual card be available after registration on your platform?
Brocard: After registering and topping up, the card will be issued in seconds. FlexCard: Card issuance is available immediately after balance replenishment. On average, within 30 seconds.  

CardsPro: In the “Cards” section, select the required BIN, top up the account, enter the top-up amount, set the limit (if necessary) and issue the card with one click. You can issue 1, 10 or 100 cards. 

What are the limits and restrictions on virtual cards? Can they be customized to meet campaign needs?
Brocard: Unlimited card issuance is available for active MyBrocard users (no limits). If needed, you can set limits in your personal account or in the accounts of your team members. FlexCard: You can set daily and monthly limits for each card. Therefore, with the help of the limits you can control the spending on each card, and you can change the limits at any time in the card section. CardsPro: The limit for each card is set individually, depending on the needs of the advertising campaign. Most of the BINs in the service are self-balancing, i.e. the client tops up the card with the amount they intend to spend. Spending limits are set only for cards with a total balance.
What are the fees for creating and using virtual cards?
Brocard: Cards are absolutely free to fund and maintain. Commissions are only 1-2$ for card issuance and 0.5$ for declined payments. However, declines can be refunded by cashback at a low decline rate. FlexCard: Our service charges only an issuance fee. CardsPro: The standard rate in CardsPro service is $2.5 for card issuance and 4% for replenishment. However, we can optimize costs and offer VIP rates for high-volume clients.
Is it possible to create multiple virtual cards for different ad campaigns or traffic sources?
Brocard: Users can issue and block cards in bulk. Additionally, a free API is available for optimization and automation. FlexCard: Of course, there is no limit to the number of cards.  

CardsPro: In CardsPro you can issue an unlimited number of cards per account.

What methods of topping up virtual cards do you offer and how fast are the transactions?
Brocard: Current deposit methods and terms: USDT (TRC20, ERC20) – 4.5%, Capitalist – 7%, Wire – 3%. In addition, the account can be funded directly from affiliate networks with a reduced commission of 2-3%, such as Everad, Terra Leads, KMA.BIZ, Leadbit, LemonAD, Shakes.pro, Marketcall and others. Funds will be added to your account within 5 minutes. FlexCard: USDT (TRC20, ERC20). It all depends on the exchange or service you are sending money from. But on average, the funds are credited within 1-5 minutes. If you make a bank transfer, it depends on the bank, sometimes a few hours, sometimes a few days. CardsPro: You can fund your CardsPro account via USDT/Wire for 0% (1-2 days).

Besides, since the service is seamlessly integrated with Capitalist payment system, accordingly, the client can receive payment from an affiliate network (and we work with almost all affiliate programs on the CIS market) or any other affiliate on Capitalist instantly and without commission and immediately top up CardsPro card.

What additional features, such as spending limits or transaction alerts, are available on your platform? 
Brocard: Ability to enable/disable micropayments, webhooks, notifications of all balance transactions via email and Telegram. Team leaders can customize all kinds of limits within the team.  FlexCard: We have a telegram bot in which you can receive 3DS codes (analog of sms). This code goes to your personal account, but you can connect to tg-bot and the code will be duplicated there. Also in the bot you can see your current balance on all BINs and wallets and view transactions for the current day. All transactions for the whole time can be found in the personal account.

 

CardsPro: Auto top-up function: If the client is not interested in monitoring the balance, he can set a minimum threshold for card balances and an automatic top-up amount for any number of cards.  Spending limits are set for cards with a total balance.

Transaction history shows the status of transactions with merchant and time of transaction according to payment statistics.

If a card is compromised or lost, what is the process for restoring access or replacing the card?
Brocard: If necessary, you can cancel the card and the funds will be returned to your balance. FlexCard: All of our cards have 3DS on them, so it’s virtually impossible to compromise the card because you only have all the codes and data.  CardsPro: We do not distribute individual cards or issue plastic cards. We provide access to the service through which the cards are managed and which may be lost by the client due to circumstances beyond our control. If a card is “compromised”, the user can block or close the card himself.

Alex Miller: Can you tell us about your customer support policy (communication channels, response time)?

    What is your customer support policy?

    Support is currently one of the most important areas for us to grow and develop. Now a support manager will answer you within a few minutes at any time of the day. In addition, a messenger widget is available on the site, where you can also contact the support team. If the situation is more complicated, the user creates a ticket – the speed of processing and resolution depends directly on the problem, but we try to give immediate feedback.

    What is your customer support policy?

    We work daily from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. (UTC+3). Each site has a personal chat room. Response time, on average 1-5 minutes (depending on workload). Sometimes it can be longer as we really try to treat each case individually and help our users. There is also a ticket system implemented in the personal account, where the web can also write your request and we will respond. You can follow the news in our Telegram channels, as well as in the personal account in the corresponding section.

Alex Miller: And now for something very important – security! What measures do you take to protect transactions and user data? How do you secure transactions and protect user data?

1 из 3
  • What security measures do you take?
    What security measures do you take?

    One of the methods we use to prevent incidents is to verify users upon registration.  

    Previously, the only way to become a MyBrocard user was to receive an invitation from an active user with a stable spending history. To a certain extent, this approach helps prevent potential attackers from joining the service. However, this has its drawbacks from a product development and growth point of view, so now every new user goes through KYC or interview during registration, depending on where exactly the user comes from.

    In addition, two-factor authentication is a must. Without a two-factor connection, you cannot continue to use the service. 

    Yes, it complicates the “login” process, and we regularly get conflicting feedback on this topic.

    However, in over 2 years of using MyBrocard, there have been no incidents of user funds being stolen or user data being leaked.

    What security measures do you take?

    Artem, Head of CardsPro by Capitalist: Since CardsPro is seamlessly integrated with Capitalist, the account protection measures in the system extend to the service.

    Capitalist has several methods of account protection, including Google 2FA, SMS confirmation, one-time codes and personalized greeting (phishing protection). Only verified accounts can be restored. 

    For 10 years there has not been a single loss of client data and funds due to system failure. Verified/unverified account status does not affect rates and limits. Verification usually takes no more than one day.

    What security measures do you take?

    Every user of our service has the possibility to activate 2FA to protect his account. All transactions are available only in the personal account and are reliably protected. We cannot tell you more, because it is the security of the service.

    What measures do you take to prevent and detect fraud?

    Artem, Head of CardsPro by Capitalist: We have statistics to track the declines (the ratio of successful to unsuccessful payments) for each user. If the ratio increases, we first find out the reason. If the violations are systematic, we block the user. However, unlike other services, which block the account together with the money, we disable the function of issuing new cards to the user, and he can always dispose of the remaining funds. Other bans are already imposed by the issuing bank, and we inform users in advance what kind of purchases a particular BIN is intended for.

  • What measures do you take to prevent and detect fraud?
    What measures do you take to prevent and detect fraud?

    One way to combat fraudsters, including first-time billing clients, is to place account restrictions on users who have a high decline rate. On average, most users have a decline rate of less than 10%. Control in this direction is very important as it directly affects the quality of BINs.

    If the decline rate is high, cards will not be blocked immediately, but after a certain period of time – usually 24 hours. When blocking some cards there can be a “delayed blocking”. Currently, the minimum deposit in the service is $500, which is also one of the elements of the security policy.

    What are your plans for developing and improving the service?

    Globally, we aim to enable our users and affiliates to solve as many financial challenges as possible with MyBrocard. Even now, thanks to our focus on becoming the ideal service not only for self-buyers, but also for media buying teams and businesses, we are helping our affiliates to scale by speeding up and simplifying their financial processes. In terms of more specific planned updates, several technical integrations, adding new BINs and improving the dashboard are in development right now. We are planning visual changes to the personal account, including the adding of the long-awaited dark theme. Besides, the connection of new affiliate networks will be continued, so that buyers could withdraw their funds directly to the personal account of the service. No less important changes will affect MyBrocard’s relationship with current partners. We realize the importance of cost optimization and its impact on business scaling, that’s why we are currently developing a unique offer for regular affiliates.

    What are your plans for developing and improving the service?

    Quality is our top priority. We actively interact with our users by creating a personalized chat room for everyone to communicate. In these chats, we collect feedback and listen carefully to everyone’s wishes, because it is they who help us add truly useful features. In terms of development, we are primarily focused on expanding the range of BINs. We are constantly looking for new issuers, both for advertising payments and for personal use, and we are doing integrations with them. However, because we focus on quality, not quantity, this process takes time: we test each issuer and each BIN for quality, terms, and connectivity to the most popular ad sources. We also understand that due to the extensive functionality of our service, the interface may seem complicated. For this reason, we are working to optimize the interface and plan to introduce two types of interface: a basic one and a more advanced one.
