recurring monthly bill payments including rent, car payment, and utilities or
use PersonalPay™ to send a check to anyone or transfer money to another account
online or over the phone 24/7. They offer FREE customer service, online access,
and wireless alerts. Plus you never pay NSF, overdraft or bounced check fees!
Wired Plastic helps make your life easier!
Although the card does not require a security deposit, it does require payment
in advance, which is then used to offset future purchases made with the card.
There is no interest applied on the account, no annual fee, nor other charges
similarly found with most unsecured credit cards. There are also fewer
credentials required in comparison to common unsecured credit cards, such as a
no credit check policy, no employment verification, and so forth.
Nevertheless, it is important to note that there are some fees associated with
this card, such as a one-time application fee of $9.95, a monthly maintenance
fee of $3.95 ($47.40 annually), and a minimum load amount of $10. So in the
first year alone, a cardholder can expect to pay a total of $57.35 in fees. This
is very reasonable for this type of card.
It is common for stored value cards to lack benefits; however, this card does
offer automatic bill payment, direct deposit, and access to a unique reward
program. Through the Wired Points Rewards program, one point is earned for each
dollar spent on purchases made with the card. Points do not expire and there is
no limit to the number of points that may be earned per year. Points can be
redeemed for long distance calling cards, music downloads, a variety of ring
tones, and prepaid wireless airtime at participating partners.
