Are there spending limits when using a VCC for Twitter Ads?

SeoGuru

Yes, there can be spending limits when using a VCC (Virtual Credit Card) for Twitter Ads, and they can come from two sides:
👉 Your VCC provider, and
👉 Twitter Ads' own billing rules.

Here's a breakdown of both:

💳 1. VCC Provider Limits
Most VCCs let you set or are issued with built-in spending caps:

Type of Limit   Explanation
Per transaction limit   Max amount allowed per single charge.
Daily / Monthly limit   Cap on how much can be spent over time.
Total balance/funding limit   You can't spend more than is loaded onto the card.
Merchant category block   Some VCCs block "advertising" or "media" merchants by default.
✅ Fix: Check your provider's dashboard (Wise, Revolut, etc.) to view or increase limits. Choose cards that support recurring and higher thresholds.

📊 2. Twitter Ads Billing Thresholds
Twitter starts you off with small billing thresholds (e.g., $25 or $50). Once you hit it and successfully pay, they raise the limit automatically.

Spend Milestone   New Threshold
$25 → paid   Increases to $50
$50 → paid   Increases to $250
$250 → paid   Increases to $500
and so on...   Up to $2,500+
✅ Fix: Let your campaigns run normally. As you consistently pay on time, Twitter lifts your limits.

🔐 Bonus: Best Practices
💰 Load enough balance on your VCC to handle rising thresholds.

✅ Use a VCC that allows recurring + international ad payments.

⚠️ Don't pause campaigns right after charges — let billing cycles complete smoothly to build trust.
