Prepaid card: a practical and secure means of payment

NOTE: At Veritas we believe it is important to explain in detail all aspects of the prepaid card product so that everyone can choose the one that suits them. The information on this web page is generic and provided for informational purposes only in order to help the reader understand the prepaid card product in general. They should not be considered absolutely exhaustive and may vary depending on local legislation or other factors.

Why choose a prepaid card?

For people without a bank account

People without a bank account, or those who have difficulty obtaining a traditional bank account, can benefit from using a prepaid card. These cards allow you to make online transactions, pay in stores, and even withdraw money from ATMs, without requiring a bank account.

An excellent budget management tool

Next, a prepaid card can be a great tool for managing your budget. Since the card's balance is limited to the amount previously loaded, it can help control spending and avoid over-indebtedness. It's an ideal solution for those who struggle to manage their spending with a traditional credit card.

For the financial independence of young people

In addition, parents who wish to give financial independence to their children, while controlling their budget, can opt for a prepaid card. This allows young people to learn how to manage their money while limiting the risk of excessive spending.

A secure option for online transactions

For people concerned about their online security, a prepaid card can be a secure option. If card information is stolen, financial risk is limited to the amount loaded on the card, thereby protecting the user's other funds and bank accounts.

By using the VERITAS Mastercard® prepaid card, you benefit from all the advantages of the Mastercard® network throughout the world. In the event of a report of loss or theft, you can immediately block the card in just a few clicks. This protects you (except in cases of negligence on your part) against fraudulent use of your card number, allowing you to shop in-store or online with peace of mind. Compared to cash, which is permanently lost in the event of theft, the money on your VERITAS Mastercard® prepaid card is secure.

It is, in fact, safer to have your money on the card than to have it physically on you. Card security is reinforced by a fraud prevention and detection system. Service providers who help operate the card constantly monitor suspicious movements. The data is encrypted on their servers, protected by powerful firewalls, and access to your card space on the Internet is secure thanks to the 128-bit SSL protocol. Your identification on the platform is done by username, password and 3DS. The servers identify where you log in, which can trigger a fraud alert if suspicious logins are detected, such as purchases made in very remote locations at time intervals that are too short to be feasible.
