SUCCESS STORY: DIGITAL AD-EXPENDITURE

Breaking Point: A Digital Agency Struggling to Scale

For years, our customer, a fast-growing Swiss digital marketing agency, thrived on growing their business and managing hundreds of advertising campaigns across LinkedIn, Google Ads, and Meta. But as the client base expanded, so did the financial and operational headaches. Billing and reconciliation became a nightmare, credit card limits led to frustrating campaign shutdowns, and the burden of pre-financing ad spend strained cash flow. Meanwhile, clients demanded real-time reports on ad performance and ROI, expectations the agency struggled to meet with its manual processes.

 

It was clear - they needed a better way to manage their digital ad spend. That’s when they discovered YAPEAL.

A Seamless Transition with YAPEAL

After researching multiple financial solutions, the agency turned to us: YAPEAL, a Swiss fintech company offering a fully digital onboarding process and intuitive financial expense card solutions. Within minutes, they had transformed how they handled campaign expenses.

 

With YAPEAL, the agency could:

  • Instantly Create Virtual Debit Cards and unlimited IBANs – A dedicated card per digital service provider and IBAN per client enabled seamless tracking and automated reporting.

  • Maintain Real-Time Control Over Funds – With instant funding adjustments, campaigns never stopped due to credit card limits.

  • Eliminate Manual Reconciliation – Transactions were automatically linked to the correct client and digital service provider, ensuring precise invoicing with minimal effort.

  • Scale Without Growing Overhead – With automation in place, they could take on more clients without adding administrative burden.

By switching to YAPEAL, the agency saw immediate improvements:

A CEO’s Perspective

Before YAPEAL, managing digital ad spend felt like an uphill battle—missed payments, halted campaigns, and endless reconciliation issues. YAPEAL changed everything. Now, we have full control over our expenses, campaigns never go dark, and our clients get real-time transparency. The ability to scale efficiently while saving both time and money has been a game-changer.
