How to transfer money from your prepaid card

Prepaid cards are a great way to control your spending.
Setting daily, weekly or monthly spending allowances or prepaying cards with a certain amount of money and being strict with your outgoings can allow us to manage our finances better and to keep track of overspending on certain costs that we can look to reduce.
It is a helpful tool which can come in handy when travelling abroad and dealing with increased international charges.
