Hi – where do we need to send completed entries?
Hi Jenny,
Please find details within the entry form. The entry deadline is 31st December, 2010.
Hi – can we enter the same product in more than one category and when are the award announcements expected. Thanks Ece
Hi Ece,
You can enter the same card in as many categories as you like using just one form. However, a different product must be submitted on a new form. As an example, a pay monthly and PAYG version of the same prepaid credit card must be submitted separately.
Awards announcement in mid Feb – around 15th Feb.

Amit
Would a card in Ireland qualify in a local category or international category?
Hi Ben,
Ireland would qualify as a local category and hence, your product can be entered in all such categories.
Can you confirm that the international category for the prepaid card awards is not linmited to prepaid card type – cheers
