    I'm looking for a white label solution to provide card issuing.

    looking for something 'cheap', in the sense, we don't need to start with a order quantity of 1k cards etc.

    Expected volume is 100-500 cards in 1 year.

    I looked into this with the potential to provide a UKBF business card. All the main providers required an up-front commitment in excess of £1M, so I chose not to do it as I wasn't convinced more than 10,000 UKBF members would take up the service within 12 months.

    Stripe is the only thing i want to consider, even then, i'm 50/50 on it and would love better options

    Do you want the cards only or a financial service?

    I looked at that about 8 years ago and came across a company who would manage this, but, if my memory is right it was an initial investment of £10k + from £3.50 per card (volume discounts).

    With the subsequent growth of challenger banks, which are, in basic for, glorified card accounts, I would have thought prices would have gong down.

    im essentially trying to avoid the initial investments, a lot of these card issuers want you to make some massive commitments

    When I looked, there were only a couple players and that was the pricing for the best value one.

    What did stripe say?
