What is a Prepaid Card?

Your Prepaid Card is a MasterCard payment card that can be loaded with money by you or someone else. It looks just like a credit or debit card, with a card number, Chip and signature strip. But prepaid cards are unlike credit cards, which provide you with a line of credit, and different from debit cards which are linked to a bank account. This is because you can’t go overdrawn or borrow money with a prepaid card – you can only spend the money you have loaded onto it, so you can stay in complete control of your money.
