A prepaid Visa® is essentially a prepaid card that carries the Visa brand and works anywhere Visa is accepted. In a world full of credit and debit cards, you have almost certainly seen the Visa symbol and very likely used a Visa prepaid, debit or credit card.
A prepaid card is a pay-before product. You add money first, then spend. That is different to credit cards (buy now, pay later) and bank debit cards (buy now, pay now). Prepaid cards give you a safe and secure way to pay that is not linked to your main bank account.
While many UK programmes today run on Mastercard, Visa prepaid cards are well established and continue to grow across the UK, EEA and US.
