Card packages
Launch market-ready card products faster by selecting a card package, which is a bundle of features, insurance, and pricing that applies to every card you issue.
When you create a card product, you select a package. Packages come in three tiers: Standard, Essential, and Premium. Each includes different features and pricing.
Card package comparison
| Feature | Standard tier | Essential tier | Premium tier |
|---|---|---|---|
| Insurance coverage | Standard | Essential | Premium |
| Spending limits | €10,000 | €40,000 | €100,000 |
| Foreign exchange (FX) fees | 2% | 1% | 0% |
| Card design* | Plastic (black or silver) | Plastic (black or silver) | Metal |
*All tiers support branded and custom card designs.
You can't add card packages to existing cards. If you want to offer a card package to existing users, create a new card product and issue new cards.
Configure a card product
To configure card packages, follow our step-by-step guide to learn how to configure your card product. Once set, the package automatically links to newly issued cards.
Card package billing
Billing for card packages, whether to you (the Partner) or your user, depends on your Swan contract, the selected card package, and your chosen billing model. Fees include:
- Card subscription: Monthly fee per active card.
- FX fees: Applied to non-euro transactions.
- Physical cards: One-time printing and shipping fee (billed to Partner only).
