  • Joe Weider:
    So AccountNow has two prepaid cards, a MasterCard and a Visa. The Visa isn’t a very good option because it has a very high monthly load requirement ($2,500) to avoid the nearly $10 monthly fee, you have to pay almost two bucks every time you want to withdraw cash from an ATM, and you have to pay out the you know what if you want to close you account. As far as the AccountNow Prepaid MasterCard is concerned, well, let’s put it under the microscope. Your goal in comparing prepaid cards should be to find the least expensive option for your needs and lifestyle. That means fees should be your top concern (I mean, you’re not going to get much in the way of rewards or anything like that). Well, the Prepaid AccountNow MasterCard doesn’t charge for activation, which is good, but that’s basically where the benefits end. If you got this card, you’d have to pay $9.95 per month, $2.50 for each ATM withdrawal, $0.50 - $1.00 for customer service if you don’t sign up for direct deposit. You also have to pay $15.95 to get a check that will bring your account balance to zero once you close your account. The AccountNow Prepaid MasterCard is therefore even worse than the Visa because you don’t even have the option to avoid the monthly fee. As far as alternatives are concerned, I’d take a look at the GreenDot Prepaid Card, the American Express Prepaid Card, or Chase’s Liquid Card. All can be very inexpensive if used right. The Green Dot will cost you nothing if your directly deposit $1,000 each month and use Green Dot ATMs, the Amex Card is the same if you only make one ATM withdrawal per month, and the Liquid Card costs $4.95 per month but gives you the ability to load money for free at Chase bank branches and withdraw cash for free at Chase ATMs.
