Offering a "branded" card

[SageMother]

I am thinking about a branded debit card for my best customers - something that has my business name and logo on it. Does anyone know about how much that would cost or what the process is in setting something like this up?

That certainly sounds like a very good idea and a way of mmarketing! But I have no idea how is set up. I´m sure you can find out. Bank of America now has thousands of cards... maybe they have a way to help you.

I thought I could do a cool logo or two. One for my mineral make up and one for the skin care things. Could be fun!

Don´t you have to have a fairly big ammount of clients to have that? Is it worth it? How many clients do you have?? Just curious!

It sounds like a great idea, but it seems to me that it would be very costly. I really wouldn't even know how you would go about doing that.

I thought Bank of America offered a branded card when I opened my account. The recently acquired the largest credit card company and offer the most variables.

Probably. But one has to look at options that may become feasible in the future.

True, it may be more feasible in the future, but as a small business, how much of an investment is that?

Hard telling right now. It is an idea that I haven't researched yet. I thought I would look at Visa next year and see what they might have along those lines or if they had information on how one would go about getting set up. For all I know, Paypal might have something along these lines.

Its an idea. It might not be possible to execute, but it's something to think about, and it never hurts to learn.

It is true! It never hurts to learn a new thing, specially when this is related to your business and your income and future income. Good luck!
