Exhausted and Overwhelmed by...
- Chasing clients for overdue payments?
- Waiting weeks for checks to arrive in the mail… only to turn around and wait again for them to clear your bank account (all while hoping they don’t bounce)?
- The stress of being ghosted and never getting paid at all?
- Spending billable hours to review, explain, and negotiate invoices for free?
- Writing a proposal for each new client or project?
- Scope creep that eats into your time and causes tension with clients?
Hi, I’m Belinda!
I experienced all of these problems when I started my Virtual Assistant business in 2010. Like most VAs, I billed my clients after completing their work.
It was time-consuming and stressful, and I felt like I was always chasing the money owed to me for work that had been done weeks (or even months) prior.
I don’t do that anymore! 100% of my clients pay me entirely upfront for my time. You read that right… 100%.
That’s because I invented The Debit Card System and immediately implemented it for my business.
Today, everything about my work life
as a VA has changed
-
I have ZERO bad debt
-
No more wasting precious time chasing clients for money
-
Clients pay by credit card, so the funds automatically go into my bank account
-
Payments are received whether I’m at my desk… or on vacation
-
No hassling with multiple-priced packages or flat-rate projects
- The Debit Card System integrates with Stripe - the most flexible payment processor on the market.
What is The Debit Card System?
- Sell your hours in “chunks”
- One hourly rate, no matter what I’m doing
- You set the expiration date for hours purchased
- Choose and set up your payment method
- The work starts AFTER I get paid
- Track your hours and report back to clients
And best of all, my clients love it!
Instead of wondering whether or not to hire me for a task or project, they are eager to spend down the time they’ve already purchased.
The weekly email keeps me top of mind and alerts them when their debit card balance runs low. With one click, they visit my website, recharge it, and reserve more time. It’s completely self-service! Then the whole cycle starts again (and again and again).
Improved cash flow and steadier work for me; less stress for my clients.

The debit card method of payment is fantastic!
It's super quick and easy, you pay up front when it works for you, and each week you receive an email with balance update. The funds can be used for any of Belinda's services, making it flexible and a great way to meet immediate needs.

I love using The Debit Card System. Using Belinda’s instructions, it was easy to set up, and it’s really easy to use. It eliminates the need to continually discuss money with your clients, which avoids a lot of uncomfortable conversations.
Also, whenever I explain it to prospective clients, they always comment on what a great idea it is and often ask me to set it up for their business. I highly recommend using the Debit Card System.

One of the biggest questions when you start to get clients is how to bill them.
Unfortunately, there are people who would have you do the work and never pay. Belinda’s Debit Card System cuts that off at the pass. Your clients pay you upfront.
Belinda’s step-by-step instructions for setting this up were invaluable. It would have taken a lot of time and research to figure out some of the aspects.
Instead, I was able to follow along with really easy to understand instructions. I have to admit, even now, when I have to set a client up with a similar payment system, I go back to the Debit Card System and rewatch!

Belinda's debit card system is TERRIFIC.
She reminds me weekly about remaining hours. I can add hours at any time - easy to do with my credit card - and I can use the time as I need it.
Perfect!

I learned about the Debit Card System from Belinda during the Kickstart Challenge and got the course when I joined VA School.
It was easy to set up and is such a great idea. Step-by-step instructions and videos...everything from setting up the accounts and payment links, and adding the links to your website.
I love that I am always paid before doing the work, and I don't have to be talking about money constantly.

Before I implemented Belinda's Debit Card System I struggled with getting my clients to pay for the work I had already delivered and had to do a lot of "chasing."
It was frustrating and inefficient. After implementing Belinda's simple Debit Card System, I have not had to do any more chasing and have saved myself so much time and stress.
There have been no more conversations or worries about money with my clients after rolling out this fantastic system. I highly recommend the debit card system as a foundation for all successful virtual assistant businesses.

There are so many things I love about the Debit Card System.
It's so easy to buy time and keep the card loaded with hours. I wouldn't dream of running out of time because when I need help, Belinda's right on it.

When I met with a prospective client, he asked me, “So, how does this work? Do you bill me?" I said, "No! Let me show you.”
I sent him to my debit page and explained it. He said, “Wow! This is pretty ingenious! I’ve never seen this before. What a great way to do it.”
