With Tremendous, you can place an order for unloaded physical Visa cards, then load them on-site when you're ready to distribute them to recipients.
This option is only available in the United States and must be configured on your team. Contact clients@tremendous.com to enable this feature.
Bulk Visa cards are unbranded. The cards arrive activated and ready for use, though recipients must register a notification email or phone number if they want to add the card to a digital wallet. For instructions, see: How do I activate my Physical Visa card?
Order fees and shipping
Bulk Visa cards have associated fees of $2 per card to cover the cost of card creation, plus a $15 expedited shipping fee per order. Fees are applied to the total cost of your order at checkout.
Orders are sent to our fulfillment partner once each business day at 6 am ET. Orders placed after 6 am ET go out with the next business day's batch, so orders placed after 6 am ET on Friday or over the weekend are sent on Monday.
Once our fulfillment partner receives a batch, it takes three business days to process and ship. Cards ship by expedited overnight service with tracking and signature required.
If you place more than one order in a business day with the same ship-to name and address, the orders will ship together in one box. If you must receive your orders in separate boxes, enter a different ship-to name or Address 2 line for each order.
How to place an order
To order blank cards for onsite load:
- Click Send rewards > Ship cards to me (bulk order).
- Enter your shipping address.
- Select Add card details and enter the quantity of cards you'd like to order. When choosing the dollar amount per card, enter $0.
- Choose your payment method and optionally enter an external ID for internal billing or tracking purposes. The external ID must be unique. If it has been used before, the order will fail.
- Click Place order to confirm your order. After submission, the order cannot be modified.
Bulk Visa cards expire 12 months after they're ordered, not after they're loaded. It is recommended not to keep a supply of Bulk Visa cards on hand, or they may expire before you distribute them. Instead, order cards when you need them.
Tracking your order
It takes 3 business days for our fulfillment partner to process your order and create a shipping label. You'll receive an email notification when a tracking number has been created.
Once created, tracking numbers can also be found in the dashboard:
- In the left-hand menu, click Orders & rewards > Order history.
- Click on the bulk Visa order you'd like to check.
- If we've received tracking information from our card provider, the ship date, shipping method, and tracking number will appear under Tracking.
If you placed more than one order in a business day with the same ship-to name and address, they'll ship together in one box with a single shipping label. The tracking number will be the same for each order in the shipment.
Loading cards onsite
Once your unloaded Bulk Visa cards arrive and you're ready to load them, log in to the Tremendous dashboard and click Send rewards > Activate cards onsite.
-
Click Load cards to begin. Under Barcode, select the 20-digit barcode associated with the card you'd like to load. The barcode can be found on the back of each card.
You can also do this in bulk using the available CSV file. On the right-hand side of the page, click Download barcodes, then complete the Amount column with the amounts you'd like to load. Be sure to save the file in your editor. Then, in the Tremendous dashboard, click Upload CSV to re-upload the file.
- Click Continue.
- Once the activation order has been processed, the cards will be loaded and ready to spend.
