Pre-paid card – always great as a Christmas present
Choosing the right Christmas presents is not an easy job. The perfect idea for a present, which is bound to make its recipient happy, is a Millennium MasterCard Prepaid card.
When deciding what presents to give to our family for Christmas, we strive to identify their dreams, so that the present gives them genuine pleasure. However despite all the efforts some presents miss the mark. The solution to avoid such a situation is to give your dear ones a Millennium MasterCard Prepaid card with the sum of money we want to give as the present. In this way the recipient of the card will personally decide what is going to give him/her the greatest joy.
Millennium MasterCard Prepaid card is a card, which can have any amounts transferred to its account multiple times. After the money has been transferred to the card, it can be used to pay for shopping (also contactless) in real and online shops, as well as for making cash withdrawals from ATMs in Poland and abroad, up to the amount accumulated on the card account.
A pre-paid card also makes an excellent Christmas present for a child – it is a first step towards learning to manage one's finances. A pre-paid card application can be filed for any person over 13. Instead of giving e.g. your child some cash, money can be presented with a card that may be topped-up via Millenet or the Mobile Application at any time. Such a solution also provides a guarantee of security as well as enabling control of spending – important particularly for parents – e.g. by setting-up daily spending limits. The available balance can be checked at any time via MilleSMS, Millenet, Mobile Application, in TeleMillennium or any Millennium branch. Moreover the Finance Manager functionality may be used in the Internet or mobile banking system to look at the card spending statistics. Parents, friends or more or less distant relatives can top-up the pre-paid card multiple times – such non-cash pocket money will help a "young adult" learn responsibility for own spending.
A Millennium MasterCard Prepaid card ensures security of the money accumulated on its account – it comes with a microchip, thanks to which all transactions are authenticated with a PIN number (apart from contactless transactions up to PLN 50). As regards online transactions, the card guarantees the highest currently available level of security thanks to the 3D-Secure system. Moreover cardholders can enjoy rebates from close to 1000 real and online merchants in the "Inspiracje" benefits programme.
A card application may be filed with any Millennium branch or online. Only adults can apply for the card – for their own use or for any other person over 13. Holders of current accounts in Bank Millennium can order the card online, without signing any documents.
