what is the speed-e-card prepaid MasterCard®?
Speed-e-card is a prepaid card that is a modern and secure alternative to cash.
The speed-e-card prepaid MasterCard card works like a debit card, except you control the amount you load onto the card. You do not pay interest on the funds used and you cannot go overdrawn.
Once you have loaded funds into your speed-e-card account, you can then use the card to access this balance from either ATMs, or you can pay for goods and services in shops, or via the internet in the same way you would with a conventional debit or credit card.
Just some of the advantages
You can access your money via your speed-e-card the same day as it is in your account. Why not ask your boss to pay your wages directly into your speed-e-card account?
The same convenience as a debit card with a limit - you can only spend up to the balance in your speed-e-card account.
Unlike cash, the balance on the account is safe if the card is lost as you can block the card by reporting it lost or stolen (terms apply) plus it's normally a safe alternative to carrying large amounts of cash.
Secure access to your account balance is via the speed-e-card website, this enables you to view all your transactions online and take back control of your money.
And remember – if you are going on holiday your speed-e-card will keep your cash safe because you can use it at any ATM in the world showing the MasterCard Acceptance Mark.
