PREPAID CARDS
Prepaid cards are physical cards which can be preloaded with a fixed amount of money and used to make purchases in shops or online by any person assisting you. There are a number of prepaid providers which you can contact directly and arrange for delivery of a card to your home or to the volunteer that is assisting you. In some cases, where individuals qualify, prepaid cards may be provided by your Local Authority. You should get in touch with them if you think this may apply to you.
Please note that you should always take steps to ensure the prepaid card provider you are using is legitimate, and seek advice online, from family/friends where possible, or your bank, if you are unsure. Some banks may also provide or recommend a prepaid card service.
