About the Card

Like a normal credit card, your card is available to use instantly after purchase and can be used at any MasterCard accepting merchant. The card will be swiped at the till. All that is required is your signature to complete the purchase.  There is no transaction fee involved and the card may be used until funds no longer remain on the account (or 12 months from the time the card is purchased).

When you present the card for payment, the merchant swipes it through their normal payment acceptance terminal. If the funds are available on the card, the payment is authorised and you sign the receipt.   It’s that simple!

Your card balance can conveniently be checked online at www.zapacard.com , at the website address located on the back of your card, or at your place of purchase.
