One card per ad account
Assign dedicated credentials to a specific account and keep its transactions separate from every other advertising budget.
Virtual Cards for Microsoft Ads (Bing)
Virtual cards for Microsoft Advertising (Bing Ads) give each ad account or client a dedicated payment flow. Issue cards in volume as your portfolio grows, separate budgets across Search and the Microsoft Audience Network, and return unused card funds to one central balance.

Microsoft Ads structure
A dedicated card for every account and client
Mirror the structure of your client portfolio with your cards. Funding, charges and the available balance for each Microsoft Advertising account remain in their own payment flow.
A budget for each client
Give every client a standalone card so ad charges and available funds can be reconciled without splitting a shared payment stream.
A portfolio that stays clear
Add cards alongside new accounts, markets and clients while retaining the same straightforward accounting structure.
Billing model
A reserve for threshold billing or prepay
Microsoft Advertising applies the billing model available to each account. Keep enough funds on a dedicated card for the next threshold charge, or fund a prepayment when that option is enabled for the account.
Threshold charges
Match the available card balance to current spend and the expected threshold so the next funding transfer can be planned in advance.
Prepaid balance
When an account supports prepay, fund the card with the amount intended for the next addition to its advertising balance.
A working reserve
Add funds as campaigns grow and keep only the amount required for the account's upcoming billing cycle on the card.
Search and Audience Network
Clear control across different campaign inventory
Search campaigns and the Microsoft Audience Network can spend at different rates. A card defines the account's overall boundary, while separate accounts and cards isolate individual clients and media plans.
Search campaigns
Maintain a reserve aligned with actual search spend and add funds to the active card without replacing its credentials.
Microsoft Audience Network
Keep audience campaign spend inside the corresponding account's payment flow instead of mixing it with other clients.
From test to scale
Start with a controlled budget, then increase funding on the same card or issue another for a standalone account.
Credentials and balances
Set up the card for the billing profile
Review the billing currency, card network and BIN before adding credentials. Limits follow your TrustVCC tier, and unused funds can return to the central balance after outstanding charges have cleared.
USD, EUR or GBP
Choose a card currency that matches the billing currency configured for the advertising account.
Limits for your volume
The daily card limit is $10,000 on Start and $25,000 on Pro, while VIP has no daily card limit.
Return unused funds
Once final charges have cleared, move the available card balance back without a fee and redirect it to another account.

Microsoft Ads FAQ
Questions about cards for Microsoft Advertising
Practical guidance on account structure, Bing Ads billing models and dedicated payment flows.
Should every Microsoft Ads account have its own card?
A one-card-per-account or client structure makes reconciliation clearer because card funding, ad charges and the remaining balance all belong to one payment flow.
Can the card support threshold billing and prepay?
Prepare the card for the model available to the account: keep a reserve for threshold charges or fund an eligible prepayment. Microsoft Advertising determines each account's billing terms.
Can it cover Search and Microsoft Audience Network spend?
Both inventory types are billed through Microsoft Advertising. Use separate accounts and cards when the media plan requires independent budget boundaries.
Does a virtual card guarantee acceptance by Microsoft Ads?
No. Linking a card and accepting a payment depend on Microsoft Advertising, the country, billing profile and account. Review the currency, network and BIN before issuance.
How do I recover funds after campaigns end?
Wait for expected ad charges to clear, then return the available card balance to TrustVCC at a 0% fee.
