Good news. As a parent, you have an alternative to traditional credit cards for your teen or post-teen child–Prepaid Reloadable Cards. These are specially designed to give your teen or college student spending independence and responsibility, while keeping you informed, involved and in control of part or all of your teen's finances.

With Prepaid Reloadable Cards, your child has the privilege of carrying a card with their name on it, which gives them a sense of financial independence. But you get to determine the amount to be loaded onto the card, allowing you to control spending.

Both you and your child can check the account balance and purchases online, at any time. These are also effective tools for teaching financial literacy and budget responsibility. You can learn more about Prepaid Reloadable Cards here at GiveMe20.com. Just click here.
