Prepaid Cards - Safety Tips

The users of prepaid cards need to observe basic precautions when using these increasingly popular payment cards to make purchases or withdraw cash.

Prepaid cards have transformed the way we handle money. Increasingly people prefer using prepaid cards because they are easier to use and more convenient than cash or checks. However, they also pose the same potential risks to their users, both physical and financial, as carrying cash. We urge people to use prepaid cards, but to safeguard them by following some simple rules.

Treat your prepaid card like cash. You should always keep your prepaid card in a safe place.

Your prepaid card personal identification number (PIN) is a secret. Do not share it with anyone.

Do not disclose confidential information about your prepaid card over the telephone or Internet.

Always observe the ATM surroundings before conducting a transaction with a prepaid card.

When using a prepaid card, block the view of others when using an ATM or point-of-sale (POS) terminal.

Look for possible fraudulent devices attached to the ATM.

Never allow the cashier or any other person to enter your PIN for you, even if they are assisting you with the transaction.

The safety of your prepaid card and the access to funds on the card is important. Always take care when using your card and follow these effective and simple steps. You will be glad you did.
