Prepaid debit cards are often called prepaid credit cards even though no credit is offered by the card issuer. These cards provide a platform for card members to spend money they've deposited prior to a purchase. Prepaid cards come on the popular credit card networks (MasterCard, Visa, AMEX, and Discover) and consumers owning cards on these networks can perform transactions as though it were a credit card although purchase transactions are likely to incur a slight fee. Card members will incur a monthly service fee varying across different card products. Prepaid debit cards have a huge target market including young adults who want the freedom to purchase and receive funds without parental supervision. From a parent's perspective prepaid cards provide better ways to monitor spending with periodic account statements and online account management features.
