Can I use a non-reloadable VCC for Twitter Ads?

No, you generally cannot use a non-reloadable Virtual Credit Card (VCC) for Twitter Ads (now X Ads).

Here's why:
Recurring Charges: Twitter Ads operates on a postpaid model, where your card is charged periodically after ad spend accumulates. Non-reloadable VCCs can't handle ongoing or variable charges.

Card Verification & Hold: Twitter may place temporary authorization holds or verify your card by charging small amounts. Non-reloadable VCCs often block these actions.

Billing Issues: If the card can't cover future charges, your account may be suspended or blocked from running new ads.

Recommended Payment Methods for Twitter/X Ads:
Credit cards (Visa, MasterCard, AmEx)

Debit cards (if internationally enabled and reloadable)

PayPal (in supported countries)

Some business accounts support invoicing (for large spenders)

Pro Tip:
If you don't want to use your main card, consider using a reloadable VCC (like Revolut, Wise, or privacy.com with top-up ability), but ensure it can support recurring billing.
