The Christmas sales are now well under way so out come the
credit and debit card, but new statistics show the prepaid credit cards
can offer better protection and service than traditional plastic
brands.
Online visits to prepaidcreditcardsuk.org.uk have increased significantly over the
last 6 months as traditional shoppers, turn away from credit and stick to debit
shopping in order to keep debt to a minimum.
Prepaid credit cards come in all shapes and forms, and some cards like the now
notorious Kardashian prepaid card have given this form of spending a bad name.
However the reality is that many prepaid cards actually offer significant advantages
over credit purchases and some even offer money saving deals and even free phone
credit.
For example the Escape card which retails at phones4u offers cashback on purchases made at GAP, USC,
Littlewoods, Argos and Avon and many other stores online.
More importantly than getting cashback on purchases a prepaid card allows you to
budget far more easily and not spend more than you can actually afford. For example
if you have a monthly income and you want to make sure that you don’t overspend you
can load a prepaid card with spending money and this will stop you never
overspending.
And finally as online fraud is becoming more sophisticated a prepaid card can offer
an additional layer of protection when making purchases online by minimising the
risk as you only have a set amount of money in your account at any one time.
