Don’t fret about the kids leaving home and heading to university for the first time. The Escape Prepaid MasterCard (www.escapeprepaid.com) is the ideal budget management companion.

A set amount of cash can be loaded on to the card and then spent in any location displaying the MasterCard logo including supermarkets, bars and student bookstores. The prepaid MasterCard ensures the kids aren’t spending cash they don’t have and running up huge credit card debts.

With a one-off fee of £9.99 for a card, the Escape Prepaid Mastercard can also be topped up via BACS in case Mum and Dad need to save the day with extra funds. The process is free and means funds can be withdrawn from any MasterCard accepting ATM.

The Escape Prepaid Mastercard from EZPay Ltd, part of the Phones4u Group, only lets you spend the cash you have pre-loaded, making it perfect for anyone who wants to manage their finances effectively. Loading cash on to the card via BACS is free and there is no charge to spend at any location displaying the MasterCard logo.
