Review by

The ACE Flare Visa Prepaid Debit Card gives cardholders the opportunity to enjoy the benefits of having a credit card without the overdraft fees and without the interest charges. A person is restricted to spend just the amount of money that is on the card. The money is FDIC insured and the card can be replaced if lost or stolen for a fee. Cash can never be replaced, making the card safer than cash.

For fee customers, there is a small monthly account fee that is charged, allowing PIN and signature purchases to be free. Pay-as-you-go customers pay a small fee per signature and per PIN transaction. Overall, the fees are low and reasonable so that an individual can enjoy the freedom of being able to carry out transactions the same is if the card were a credit card. Online and offline purchases, paying bills online and offline, renting cars, and reserving hotel rooms are the types of things that can be done.
