What is a prepaid debit card?

A basic prepaid debit card is a payment card that isn’t linked to an account in the traditional sense. They’re usually basic ‘top up and go’ payment cards that can be loaded with money at a PayPoint location or via money transfer. They’re called prepaid cards because you have to add money before you can use them. 

Unlike a credit card or a debit card with an overdraft attached, you can only spend as much money as you add to a prepaid cash card.

Suits Me® is more than a basic prepaid card

Basic prepaid cards don’t come with extra amazing features including Direct Debits (available with Premium and Premium Plus accounts), standing orders and transfers. But our prepaid Mastercard® debit card does – and lots more. It offers many features that you would expect without offering a credit or overdraft facility. 

Your Suits Me® prepaid card will be linked to one of our current accounts. So not only do you get a  contactless Mastercard® debit card, but you’ll also have an online money account and a mobile app to manage your finances. Plus, you’ll get access to bonus Suits Me® features including great cashback rewards!
