Joan’s Cooking Blog - Avoid Identity Theft with Safe Pre-Paid Debit Cards
Like most Americans these days, I have had my credit card number stolen while shopping online. Luckily for me, it was easy to fix the problem and I didn’t lose any money. However, since this happened, I decided to look into a prepaid card like those offered by NetSpend.
NetSpend offers a company debit card to use virtually anywhere to make purchases, pay bills, secure hotel and car rental reservations and shop online without the need even for a bank or credit history. This is a perfect solution for teaching your teenager to use a debit card responsibly. Simply charge the card with their allowence each week. Send one off with your college student so you can put money on the card at home and they can use it safely anywhere.
You can also get a prepaid debit card from NetSpend for traveling. Simply put the money onto your card and use it to make purchases for a specific length of time. That way you won’t be a victim of identity theft while traveling, eating in restaurants and shopping in distant cities.
NetSpend’s prepaid cards offer a great budgeting tool also. Put your grocery moeny on a NetSpend card each month and resolve to only spend your budgeted amount. Even low to moderate income shoppers can use these prepaid cards.
If you’re worried about identity theft, and these days, who isn’t, consider a Netspend prepaid card.
