Abstract
A method and a system for providing a payment cardholder with multiple funding source options for a payment card are provided herein. First, a managing platform associates at least two funding sources with the payment card. The funding sources include a first funding source and a second funding source. Next, the first funding source is designated as a default funding source and a set of pre-defined routing rules for funding transactions made with the payment card. Then, the managing platform intercepts each transaction of the payment card and routes the transactions to an issuer funding system for the first funding source using the managing platform.
