Prepaid Expense Cards are Maestro, MasterCard or Visa-branded cards and are similar to regular credit and debit cards. The difference: Employers fund the card with an employee's advanced expense dollars.

Specifically, the employer sets up the employee Prepaid Expense account using the prepaid expense Card individually or through a batch process.

Due to the nature of the program (individual credit histories are not considered), and hence all employees are pre-approved.
