1. Your my Travel Cash Prepaid MasterCard Card

You can use the Prepaid Card at any location that displays the MasterCard Acceptance Mark, including shops, restaurants, online, or on the telephone. You can also use your Prepaid Card overseas. Before using the Prepaid Card you need to make sure you have activated it and that there are enough funds loaded on it. You will not be able to use your Prepaid Card after its expiry date. However, we will issue you with a new Prepaid Card prior to expiry of your existing Prepaid Card provided that there has been activity on your Prepaid Card account within six months before expiry of your existing Prepaid Card and you do not advise us not to issue you with a new Prepaid Card.

If there has been no activity on your Prepaid Card account within six months before expiry of your Prepaid Card but there remains a balance of funds on your Prepaid Card we will issue a new Prepaid Card in your name and notify you (by emailing you on your email address last known to us) that the Prepaid Card is available to be sent to you. We will ask you to tell us where to post the new Prepaid Card. We will then hold that Prepaid Card for you pending receipt of details from you of where to post it.

Your Prepaid Card is not a credit card and is not in any way connected to your bank account. You will not earn any interest on any funds loaded on your Prepaid Card.

2. Applying for and activating your Prepaid Card

To apply for our Prepaid Card you must be at least 18 years old and a UK resident. We may ask to see the evidence you or your Organisation hold to prove who you are and your address. We may request documentary evidence to prove this and/or we may carry out checks on you electronically. Such evidence may be provided on your behalf by your Organisation.

In performing these checks personal information provided by you may be disclosed to a registered Credit Reference Agency who may keep a record of that information. You can rest assured that this is done only to confirm your identity, that a credit check is not performed and that your credit rating will be unaffected.

You must sign the signature strip on the back of the Prepaid Card as soon as it is received. Please refer to our Currency cards rates and terms section for all loading options, or refer to Section 3 below.

By using the Prepaid Card you are agreeing to these terms and conditions.

3. Loading your Prepaid Card

Funds can be loaded to your Prepaid Card by you or your Organisation as applicable. Limits apply to the number of times your Prepaid Card may be loaded in a day and certain minimum and maximum load limits apply, such limits are detailed in our Currency cards rates and terms section and Section 14 below. We reserve the right to refuse to accept any particular loading transaction.

Upon receipt, your funds will be available for use without delay.

A Load/Reload fee may apply for each load/reload that you make. Please see Section 14 below for details of when a Load/Reload fee will apply and how much it will be.

4. Using your Prepaid Card

You can use your Prepaid Card worldwide anywhere the MasterCard Acceptance Mark is displayed, as well as over the telephone and online, as long as you have sufficient funds on your Prepaid Card. Cash can be accessed 24/7 at ATMs wherever the MasterCard Acceptance Mark is displayed.

Limits apply to daily cash withdrawal (ATM) transactions, and other limits may be applied to the amount of spend and the number of transactions you can perform for your protection. These limits can be found in Section 14 and on our Website. Detailed instructions on how to use your Prepaid Card are found on the Website. You will need to follow these instructions when using your Prepaid Card.

All payments made using your Prepaid Card shall be in its Denominated Currency. If you are paying for goods and services in another currency, the amount payable shall be converted at the MasterCard conversion rate at the time they process your transaction, and a Foreign Transaction Fee will apply, see Section 14. When loading your Prepaid Card and paying in another currency, the applicable exchange rate will be shown at the time of the transaction.

We will deduct the value of your transactions from the balance on your Prepaid Card as soon as they are made. We will also deduct any applicable fees as soon as they become payable by you, see our Fees section below for details of our fees.

The Prepaid Card belongs to us. We may ask you to stop using your Prepaid Card and return it to us or destroy it. We may at anytime suspend, restrict or cancel your Prepaid Card or refuse to issue or replace a Prepaid Card for reasons relating to the following:

- we are concerned about the security of your Prepaid Card account or Prepaid Cards we have issued to you;
- we suspect your account is being used in an unauthorised or fraudulent manner;
- or we need to do so to comply with the law.

If we do this, we will tell you as soon as we can or are permitted to do so after we have taken these steps. We will issue you with a replacement Prepaid Card if after further investigations we believe that such circumstances no longer apply.

Like other payment cards, we cannot guarantee a merchant will accept your Prepaid Card. We may also refuse to pay a transaction:

if we are concerned about the security of your Prepaid Card or we suspect your Prepaid Card is being used in an unauthorised or fraudulent manner
if there are insufficient funds on your Prepaid Card at the time of a transaction to cover the amount of the transaction and any applicable fees
if there is an outstanding Shortfall on the Prepaid Card in accordance with Section 14
if we have reasonable grounds to believe that you are acting in breach of these terms and conditions
if we believe that a transaction is potentially suspicious or illegal (for example, if we believe that a transaction is being made fraudulently)
or because of errors, failures (whether mechanical or otherwise) or refusals by merchants, payment processors or payment schemes processing transactions.

If we refuse to authorise a transaction, we will, if practicable, tell you why immediately unless it would be unlawful for us to do so. You may correct any information we hold and which may have caused us to refuse a transaction by contacting us on 0845 867 6496 or +44 20 33550134 from outside the UK.

5. Cashback

Cashback refers to the money that you can earn back on any settled Point-Of-Sale (POS) transactions you make with your Prepaid Card. That is when you use your Prepaid Card at a merchant to pay for goods or services, either in the Prepaid Card's Denominated Currency or a different currency. Cashback is calculated as a percentage of the total transaction value and is currently set at 1% of all eligible POS spend. We may change the amount of Cashback offered by notifying you by e-mail or other agreed means at least 2 months before the change is due to take effect. All Cashback is subject to the following conditions and process:

Cashback is not paid on the following:

ATM withdrawals
Any fees, cash advances or cash-based transactions including over-the-counter cash payments and disbursements
Any amounts that are subsequently re-credited to your Prepaid Card account by way of refunds. These will be deducted from your Cashback payment or, if already paid to your Prepaid Card account, will be deducted from your Prepaid Card balance
Any spend which, at any point, exceeds the available balance on your Prepaid Card and takes it into a Shortfall

Cashback will not be paid if:

Your Prepaid Card is blocked or otherwise not active at the time we attempt to apply your Cashback
You cancel your Prepaid Card before we apply any outstanding Cashback. If you wish to cancel your Prepaid Card we advise you to wait until you have received all outstanding Cashback payments before cancelling it
We suspect/are notified that a transaction took place as a result of the loss, theft, misappropriation or unauthorised use of your Prepaid Card
A transaction is agreed to take place on a future date, only settled transactions are eligible for Cashback

In any month where a Cashback payment has been forfeited due to any of the above reasons the Cashback earned will not be carried forward

Cashback process

At the beginning of every month your Prepaid Card account will be assessed for the total value of eligible POS transactions, as defined above.
The value of your Cashback payment is calculated on settled transactions that took place the previous calendar month, as outlined above.
The calendar month period over which your Cashback is calculated uses the date that transactions are received by our system. This may not necessarily be the date that the transaction took place due to delays in receiving this information from the merchant.
In the event that your transaction is not received by our system before Cashback payments are processed it will be included in the next Cashback payment the following calendar month
Cashback amounts will be rounded down to the nearest full pence/cent (as applicable) and paid in the Prepaid Card Denominated Currency (this may require us to carry out a currency conversion if the eligible POS spend was in a currency other than the Denominated Currency of the Prepaid Card. In this case we will apply our standard exchange rate on the day of conversion).
The total amount of Cashback awarded in any calendar month is only limited by the value of eligible transactions conducted on the Prepaid Card account in the previous calendar month.
Any Cashback earned will be paid directly on to your Prepaid Card account before the end of the following calendar month, no alternative form of payment is available. An entry will be made in your Prepaid Card account notifying you that your Cashback payment has been successfully made.
If you report your Prepaid Card as lost or stolen, your Cashback will be paid to your replacement Prepaid Card.

6. Authorising Transactions

Subject to the features of the particular Prepaid Card, the authorisation of a transaction can include authorising any single transaction, a series of or recurring transactions (including transactions for an indefinite period) or pre-authorising future transactions of a certain or uncertain amount.

A Prepaid Card transaction will be regarded as authorised by you where you authorise the transaction at the point of sale by following the instructions provided by the merchant to authorise the transaction, which includes:

entering your PIN or providing any other security code
signing a sales voucher
providing the Prepaid Card details and/ or providing any other details as requested
waving or swiping the Prepaid Card over a card reader
inserting a Prepaid Card and entering your PIN to request a cash withdrawal at an ATM
making a request for a cash advance at any bank counter

Authorisation for a transaction may not be withdrawn (or revoked) by you after the time we have received it. However, the following transactions may be withdrawn if you give notice to the merchant (providing a copy of the notice to us):

any transaction which is agreed to take place on a date later than the date it was authorised as long as notice was provided no later than the close of business on the business day before it was due to take place. We may charge you an Administration Fee if a transaction is revoked by you under this condition.

We will pay the funds required by the merchant to cover the transactions authorised by you within 3 days of us receiving their request. A transaction (payment order) will be received as follows:

for purchases and ATM transactions, at the time we receive the transaction settlement instruction from the merchant acquirer or ATM operator;
for other transactions which are communicated directly to us, at the time you ask us to complete the transaction.

If, in relation to;
(a) purchases and ATM transactions, we receive the transaction instruction from the merchant acquirer or ATM operator; or,
(b) other transactions communicated directly to us, you ask us to complete the transaction after 2pm, the transaction instruction or request will be deemed to have been received by us on the following business day.

7. Cancellation and expiry of your Prepaid Card

You have a legal right to cancel your Prepaid Card up to 14 days after you receive the Prepaid Card without being charged the Redemption Fee - this 14 day period is known as the "Cooling-Off Period" (this does not apply to renewal or replacement cards, only your original card). Under these terms and conditions, you also have the right to cancel your Prepaid Card at any time after the 14 day Cooling-Off Period. You can cancel your Prepaid Card by sending an email to us using the "contact us" function on the Website, and confirming that you have destroyed your Prepaid Card.

We may also cancel your Prepaid Card for any reason by giving you at least 2 month’s notice:

if you break an important part of these terms and conditions, or repeatedly break these terms and conditions and fail to resolve the matter in a timely manner;
if you act in a manner that is threatening or abusive to our staff, or any of our representatives;
if you fail to pay fees or charges that you have incurred or fail to put right any Shortfall;
in the event of your death.

We may also cancel these terms and conditions or suspend your Prepaid Card or Prepaid Card account immediately if we believe your Prepaid Card is deliberately being used by you to commit fraud or for other illegal purposes. If we do this we will tell you as soon as we are permitted to do so.

Your Prepaid Card will be valid for the period ending on the expiry date set out on your Prepaid Card. However, we will issue you with a new Prepaid Card prior to expiry of your existing Prepaid Card provided that there has been activity on your Prepaid Card account within six months before expiry of your existing Prepaid Card and you do not advise us not to issue you with a new Prepaid Card. If there has been no activity on your Prepaid Card account within six months before expiry of your Prepaid Card but there remains a balance of funds on your Prepaid Card account we will issue a new Prepaid Card in your name and notify you (by emailing you on your email address last known to us) that the new Prepaid Card is available to be sent to you. We will ask you to tell us where to post the new Prepaid Card. We will then hold the new Prepaid Card for you pending receipt of details from you of where to post it.

If your Prepaid Card is cancelled, we will immediately block your Prepaid Card so it cannot be used.

See "Your Rights to Redemption of Funds and Refunding of Transactions on your Prepaid Card" section below for information about your rights to receive a refund of unused funds.

8. Inactivity fees

An inactivity fee will be applied to your Prepaid Card account following each period of 12 consecutive months of inactivity. Please refer to Section 14 for full information about fees.

For the purpose of these terms and conditions inactivity is defined as a period where there is no change to your Prepaid Card account balance, excluding balance changes as a result of any fees or adjustments applied by us. Inactivity will be monitored on a per Prepaid Card basis and so inactivity fees may apply to an additional card even if there has been activity on the primary card, because each card has a separate card balance.
The fees will be deducted from the 13th month onwards until such time as either activity resumes on the Prepaid Card account, the balance reaches zero or your Prepaid Card is cancelled or expires and in either case is not renewed/replaced.
The inactivity fee is non-refundable and we will not accept any claims for reimbursement

9. Keeping your Prepaid Card secure

You should treat your Prepaid Card like cash. If it is lost or stolen, you may lose some or all of your money on your Prepaid Card, in the same way as if you lost cash in your wallet or purse. As a result, you must keep your Prepaid Card safe and not let anyone else use it.

When you are issued with your PIN, you must immediately memorise it and then destroy the notification. You must keep your PIN secret at all times. Do not reveal it to anyone. If you find your PIN hard to remember, you can change it at most ATMs, by simply selecting the "PIN services" option.

We recommend that you check the balance on your Prepaid Card regularly online at the Website. We will provide you with your Prepaid Card balance and a statement of recent transactions either by electronic means or on our secure webpage at any time. Your statement will show:
information relating to each Prepaid Card transaction which will enable it to be identified
the amount of the Prepaid Card transaction shown in the currency in which the transaction was paid or debited to the Prepaid Card account
the amount of charges for the transaction
the date the transaction is authorised or posted on to the Prepaid Card account

Your Passcode/Access code is needed to activate your Prepaid Card or access your Prepaid Card details on the Website. When you are issued with your Passcode/Access code you must immediately memorise it and delete the text or email notification. Do not share it with anyone.

10. Lost and stolen Prepaid Card and unauthorised or incorrectly executed payments

If you know or suspect that your Prepaid Card is lost or stolen, or that the PIN or password is known to an unauthorised person, or if you think a transaction has been incorrectly executed you must tell us without undue delay (but in respect of unauthorised/incorrectly executed transactions not later than 13 months after the date of the debit):

By calling us on: 0845 867 6496 or +44 20 33550134 at any time; or

At any time by reporting your Prepaid Card as lost or stolen via our website by logging in to your Prepaid Card account; or

At any time via text message by simply texting CARD STOP STOLEN or CARD STOP LOST to our Lost or Stolen Card Contact Number +44 7786 200690.

If an unauthorised transaction takes place we will immediately refund the amount of the transaction after you notify us of the loss, theft, misappropriation or unauthorised use of your Prepaid Card. We will investigate claims before making a refund if there is evidence to suggest that either you have acted fraudulently or that you have deliberately or grossly negligently failed to comply with your obligations in relation to the Prepaid Card.

You will be liable for losses up to a maximum of £50 resulting from unauthorised transactions arising from the use of your lost or stolen Prepaid Card, or from the misappropriation of your Prepaid Card where you have failed to keep its personalised security features safe. However, if our investigations show that any disputed transaction was authorised by you, or you have acted fraudulently or have intentionally, or with gross negligence, not complied with your obligations regarding the security of your Prepaid Card, you may be liable for all losses (including losses we suffer) because of the use of the Prepaid Card.

11. Our liability

We will not be liable for any loss arising from:

any cause which results from abnormal or unforeseen circumstances beyond our control, consequences which would have been unavoidable despite all our efforts to the contrary; or
a merchant refusing to accept your Prepaid Card; or
our compliance with legal and regulatory requirements;
us suspending, restricting or cancelling your Prepaid Card or refusing to issue or replace it in accordance with Section 4 above;
loss or corruption of data unless caused by our wilful default.

From time to time, your ability to use your Prepaid Card may be interrupted, e.g. when we carry out maintenance. If this happens, you or your Organisation may be unable to load your Prepaid Card, or unable:

(a) to use your Prepaid Card to pay for purchases or obtain cash from ATMs and/or
(b) to obtain information about the funds available in your Prepaid Card and/or about your recent Prepaid Card transactions.

We will not be liable for any loss arising from such interruptions.We are also not liable for:

business interruption, loss of revenue, goodwill, opportunity or anticipated savings;
any indirect or consequential loss arising from your total or partial use or inability to use your Prepaid Card, or the use of your Prepaid Card by any third party.

12. Your Rights to Redemption of Funds and Refunding of Transactions on Your Prepaid Card

Redeeming the funds on your Prepaid Card

You have the right to redeem the funds on your prepaid card at any time in whole or in part. To do so, you must send us an e-mail using the "contact us" facility on the Website requesting a redemption of funds and indicating the amount to be redeemed. If you wish to cancel your Prepaid Card, please refer to section 7 above. When we process your redemption of funds request we will charge a Redemption Fee (see Fees section below) in the following cases:

If you request a redemption of funds before your right to use your Prepaid Card account balance to make payment transactions ceases (e.g. your Prepaid Card is cancelled or expires and not renewed or replaced in accordance with these terms and conditions - except if you cancel the Prepaid Card in the 14 day Cooling-off Period referred to in section 7)
If these terms and conditions provide for a date on which your right to use your Prepaid Card account balance to make payment transactions terminates and you terminate such right before that date.
You request a redemption of funds more than one year after your right to use your Prepaid Card account balance to make payment transactions ceases (e.g. one year after your Prepaid Card is cancelled or expires and not renewed or replaced in accordance with these terms and conditions).

We will not redeem the funds on your Prepaid Card account if you send us a request for a refund more than six years after the date your right to use your Prepaid Card account balance to make payment transactions ceases (e.g. six years after your Prepaid Card is cancelled or expires and not renewed or replaced in accordance with these terms and conditions).

Subject to compliance with the above paragraphs of this section and after deduction of the applicable Redemption Fee the redeemed funds be returned to you on the payment instrument that you used to fund the Prepaid Card. We reserve the right to see proof of your ownership of the payment instrument before transferring the funds to it. To enable us to comply with our legal obligations (including, without limitation, anti-money laundering obligations), we may ask you to provide us with certain information before we can process your redemption of funds request.

Where the currency of the amount to be redeemed is different to the currency of the payment instrument that you used to fund the Prepaid Card we will convert this before we pay you the redeemed funds. Please note that exchange rates vary and also contain a buy/sell spread and therefore the exchange rate on any redeemed funds you receive will differ from the rate when you loaded the funds onto your Prepaid Card. We will apply our standard rate on the day and will inform you of the exchange rate at the time funds are redeemed.

If by the date falling one year after your right to use your Prepaid Card account balance to make payment transactions ceases (e.g. one year after your Prepaid Card is cancelled or expires and not renewed or replaced in accordance with these terms and conditions) a positive balance exists on your Prepaid Card account and we have not been provided with a request for redemption of funds and/or with all necessary information by you to enable us to return the remaining balance of funds to you a Dormancy Fee (see Fees section below) will be payable and will be deducted from your Prepaid Card account balance. The Dormancy Fee is to cover our costs of maintaining records of the remaining balance of funds until such time as you do make a request for a refund or supply us with all necessary information to enable us to return the remaining balance of funds to you or such balance is reduced to zero by the deduction of the Dormancy Fees (as the case may be).

The provisions of these terms and conditions giving you the right to request a redemption of funds and us the right to charge a Redemption Fee and/or a refund-related Dormancy Fee will survive the termination-expiry of these terms and conditions.

Refunding Transactions

You may be entitled to claim a refund in relation to transactions where:

the transaction was not authorised in accordance with these terms and conditions;
we are responsible for a transaction which was incorrectly executed after you notified us in accordance with Section 6 above;
a pre-authorised transaction did not specify the exact amount at the time of its authorisation and the amount charged by a supplier is more than you could reasonably have expected taking into account normal spending patterns on the Prepaid Card or the circumstances of the transaction. A claim for a refund in the circumstances set out above will not be accepted if the amount of the transaction was made available to you at least 4 weeks before the transaction date or if the claim is made more than 8 weeks after being debited to your Prepaid Card account.
we were notified of the unauthorised/incorrectly executed transaction within 13 months of the debit date.

13. Changes to these terms

We may change these terms by notifying you by e-mail or other agreed means at least 2 months before the change is due to take effect. The notices and up-to-date version of the Prepaid Card terms and conditions will always be available on the Website. You should check the Website regularly for such notices and changes. You will be taken to have accepted the notified change unless you tell us that you do not agree to the change prior to the change being effective. In that event, we will treat that notice as notification that you wish immediately to terminate. In such circumstances we will refund any balance on the Prepaid Card in accordance with Section 12 above and you will not be charged a Redemption Fee.

We may make immediate changes to the exchange rate used to convert foreign transactions between two currencies as applicable.

For all transactions made in a foreign currency you can find out what the applicable exchange rate was at the time of the transaction via the MasterCard website https://www.mastercard.com/us/personal/en/cardholderservices/currencyconversion/index.html

You agree that once we make this Shortfall known to you, we may charge you for the Shortfall amount. We may charge the amount of the Shortfall from any other Prepaid Cards that you hold with us, to any other payment method which you may designate at that time, or any payment methods you may have used in the past or have registered with us, or against any funds which you may subsequently load onto your Prepaid Card or on any additional Prepaid Card ordered by you. Until we are reimbursed the Shortfall amount, we may suspend your Prepaid Card and any additional Prepaid Cards connected to you. In addition, we reserve the right to charge you an Administration Fee for each transaction that you make using your Prepaid Card that results in a Shortfall or increases the Shortfall amount on your Prepaid Card.

We may move your unused balance to a new Prepaid Card provided by a Prepaid Card issuer other than Wirecard Card Solutions at any time. Before we do this, we will give you 2 months notice of the new Prepaid Card arrangements and the new Prepaid Card terms and conditions. Unless you advise us within the 2 month period that you do not want a new Prepaid Card from the new Prepaid Card issuer, you agree that we can automatically move the unused balance on your Prepaid Card to a new Prepaid Card provided by the new Prepaid Card issuer.

23. Governing law

These terms and conditions are made in English. All communications with you will be in English. These terms and conditions will be governed by English law and English courts will deal with any legal proceedings between us.

In the event that Wirecard Card Solutions becomes insolvent funds that you have loaded which have arrived with and been deposited by Wirecard Card Solutions are protected against the claims made by creditors.

25. Prepaid Card issuer

Please note, Newcastle Building Society (NBS), the original issuer of the my Travel Cash MasterCard® Prepaid Card, has transferred its Prepaid Cards Division to Wirecard Card Solutions Limited (WDCS). WDCS, authorised and regulated by the Financial Services Authority in the UK and covered by the Financial Ombudsman Service, is the new issuer of your card. The Terms and Conditions and any fees relating to your card remain unchanged. This also does not affect the status of your card or statutory rights in any way.
