#1 SWISS BANKERS LIFE
Swiss Bankers has been voted as the #1 PrePaid Card issuer in Switzerland in a representative study bei Handelszeitung
Where can the prepaid cards be used?
You can use Swiss Bankers prepaid cards just like a normal credit card at over 40 million locations in Switzerland and abroad. You can also withdraw cash at favourable rates at over two million ATMs worldwide. In many stores you can pay conveniently using your smartphone, your smartwatch or contactlessly using your card. Prepaid credit cards are accepted by all online shops: Ideal for people who do not have a credit card or prefer not to use it online.
Why are the prepaid cards of Swiss Bankers so safe?
A Swiss Bankers prepaid card offers you protection: Your card can only be charged when funds have been loaded. The prepaid cards are also equipped with the latest chip generation and offer additional protection against card misuse online with Mastercard Identity Check. The Swiss Bankers app offers additional security measures too, such as blocking the card for online purchases, contactless payment or certain countries. In the event of loss or theft, your card and its balance will be replaced immediately.
What is the difference between a prepaid credit card and a standard credit card?
A prepaid reloadable credit card differs from a standard credit card in several ways. With a prepaid reloadable credit card, you load money onto the card that you can then use. There is no line of credit, and you can only spend what you have loaded onto the card. A standard credit card, on the other hand, offers you a line of credit that you can borrow money from and repay later with interest. While a standard credit card requires a credit check and carries debt risks, a prepaid reloadable credit card is a debt-free option with no credit check, ideal for controlled spending management.
Which prepaid credit card is the right one for you?
Swiss Bankers has developed optimal solutions for your maximum flexibility and freedom, whether you are travelling, going about your daily business or shopping online.
The Life Prepaid Mastercard is the best choice for your everyday spending. This card was developed specifically for your daily needs. There are no transaction fees.
Travel is the prepaid credit card for travellers. This card offers you maximum security and flexibility when travelling. The best thing about it is that you pay no annual fee and receive up to 50% discount at over 600 hotels. For those who only occasionally need a credit card, Travel is the best choice. Fees only apply when you load and use the card.
Value is the Swiss Bankers prepaid credit card for companies. It is the ideal solution for paying expenses and advances to employees. The Value card can be integrated into the KLARA accounting system. Klara offers you a simple and professional way to manage expenses.
Prime is the exclusive prepaid credit card from Swiss Bankers. The card is available at selected private banks. Thanks to a higher loading limit, Prime offers even more flexibility than the other Swiss Bankers prepaid credit cards.
What is a prepaid, reloadable credit card?
A prepaid reloadable credit card is a credit-based card that you can top up as and when you need to. You can only spend the money that you have previously loaded, which means that you cannot go into debt. This type of credit card offers additional security because it is not linked to a bank account. This helps you to keep your spending under control and provides better protection against card fraud. Whether in your daily life or when travelling – the Swiss Bankers reloadable prepaid credit card is your ideal companion. You can use it in over 70 million stores and online shops worldwide, including more than 100,000 outlets in Switzerland alone. Compared to conventional credit cards, prepaid credit cards have limited use only at certain car rental agencies, where security is required in case of damage.
