If you are one of the lucky people that are paid in cash, but have trouble making purchases online, the ideal solution is here. A prepay Maestro card!
There are certain times that we want to keep money separate, whether it’s the wife or the tax man, a prepay debit card from Splash is a great way to transfer cash into a separate account. All you need is a UK address, and pretty much anyone over the age of 10 can sign up for one. It’s free from credit checks and not linked to a bank account.
The card is great for keeping control of your finances, you can avoid running up debt by avoiding going overdrawn and you aren’t borrowing any money from anyone. You are unlikely to get any interest on the money that you prepay, but if you need to be able to spend electronically rather than cash (such as online shopping) then it’s a great way of avoiding that line on your bank statement!
You can sign up for a prepaid Maestro card at Splash Plastic.
