Prepaid cards

Choose between a multi-currency prepaid card or a student prepaid card for high school or university students. A multi-currency card gives you access to a worldwide wallet with nine different currencies to choose from, while a student prepaid card lets you go cashless and pay online or at a point of sale for fees, schools expenses and more.
