Who should work with CryptoCardScout
CryptoCardScout covers the crypto debit- and credit-card market and the wider world of crypto payments — how cards work, where they are accepted, fees, rewards, on- and off-ramps and the fintech rails behind them. That makes us a natural fit for a specific set of brands who want to reach readers actively comparing crypto-payment products:
- Crypto debit- and credit-card issuers and programme managers.
- Exchanges and wallets that offer or are launching a card.
- Payment processors, on/off-ramp providers and stablecoin issuers.
- Fintech and Web3 brands building spend, rewards or settlement products.
- Agencies placing crypto advertising on behalf of any of the above.
Ways to work with us
We keep the commercial options deliberately simple so you can pick the format that matches your goal:
- Advertising — display placements, newsletter slots and category sponsorships to build awareness among people comparing crypto cards.
- Sponsored content — a clearly labelled branded article that explains your product in depth.
- Press release distribution — publish a company announcement, such as a card launch, listing or funding round, to a crypto-payments audience.
- Guest contributions — share genuine expertise with our readers under our editorial guidelines.
- Partnerships — ongoing arrangements that combine several of the above.
Advertising and sponsorship
If your goal is reach and awareness, advertising is the fastest route. We offer standard display placements, newsletter sponsorship and category-level sponsorships around the topics your audience already reads — card comparisons, fees, rewards and payments explainers. Every ad is visibly an ad, and we do not let a campaign influence how a product scores in our independent reviews.
Content and storytelling
When you need to explain a product properly, sponsored content gives you room to do it — a labelled article that covers how your card or payment product works, who it suits and what to watch for. For time-sensitive news, a press release leads with the announcement itself. Both are marked as company-supplied so readers always know what they are reading.
Earned coverage vs paid placement
Some brands ask how to get featured in our independent coverage. Earned coverage is decided by our editorial team on merit and cannot be bought; the paid alternative is clearly labelled sponsored content. We keep the two completely separate, and we do not sell undisclosed or disguised paid links, nor do we publish placements dressed up as independent editorial.
How pricing works
We price by scope, format and placement rather than publishing a single rate card, because a one-off announcement and a quarter-long partnership are very different jobs. Tell us what you want to achieve and we will share current rates and availability. Request our media kit to see formats and specifications.
How to get started
- Tell us your goal — awareness, a product explainer, an announcement or an ongoing programme.
- We recommend a format and share current rates and specifications.
- You approve scope, timing and labelling.
- We publish, clearly labelled, and confirm what went live.
Our audience and editorial focus
CryptoCardScout exists to help readers make sense of crypto cards and crypto payments — a fast-moving corner of fintech where fees, availability and rewards change often. Our coverage centres on practical comparisons, clear explainers and honest reviews, which means the people who read us are usually close to a decision about which card or payment product to use. For a commercial partner, that focus is the value: your message reaches a self-selected audience rather than a broad, indifferent one. Because this is a money-adjacent topic, we hold every placement to a higher bar for accuracy and disclosure, and we keep the reading experience clean so your brand appears in trustworthy surroundings.
Our commitment to readers and partners
We treat honesty as a commercial asset, not a constraint. Readers keep coming back because they know paid content is labelled and reviews are independent; partners get value precisely because that trust is intact. We will always tell you what we can and cannot do, we will never invent numbers to win a booking, and we will decline anything — from either side — that would mislead our audience.
