Topic: cashplus money transfer
Do you have family living overseas? Loved ones in another part of the UK? Children who are travelling or away at school?
If so, you can easily save time and money with your cashplus prepaid Gold MasterCard which offers a cheap and easy alternative to money transfers called Money Share.
How does it work?
The Money Share service is already available on your cashplus card so you don't have to enrol. Simply:
Order an additional MasterCard(s) for your loved ones (you can order up to 4!) by logging on to the member's area. The card will arrive at your address within 3-5 days.
Send the card(s) to your additional cardholder(s) after you have activated the card and called our Customer Services line for the PIN.
Top-up your account for free at 1,000s of locations, and the money will be available in minutes! We'll even send you a text when the money is available. You can also set-up a standing order for regular transfers.
That's it! Your loved one can now use their card to shop online or in stores and withdraw money from over 1,000,000 cash machines wherever MasterCard is accepted!
How Much Does It Cost?
With Money Share, you can save money on big or small amounts, on one-off or regular transfers anywhere in the world by using your cashplus card rather than money transfer companies or banks. All you pay is the standard cash machine charge for ATM withdrawals where applicable and any foreign exchange fee (FX fee).
