Why Millennials Like Prepaid Quantitative and qualitative research support these customer experience benefits
Prepaid customers want to be smart about money and manage their accounts on their mobile phones. They want to stay out of debt and avoid interest charges that come with credit cards.

For consumers whose alternative is cash, they’re looking for a way to pay when they shop online. A prepaid card can be used for online payments or for paying bills over the phone.
SHOP ONLINE or PAY OVER THE PHONE
