UPside is a money management service that comes with an UPside Visa Prepaid Card, an online virtual check book, and many other one-of-a-kind services. You can receive funds through direct deposit, cash loads at more than 50,000 retailers nationwide, check cashing, and credit or debit card. Because it’s prepaid, your spending is limited to the amount of money received on the account. All purchases and payments that you make with your UPside card are decremented from your available balance in real time. And, unlike most other prepaid cards, you will earn reward points redeemable for cash back onto your card.
The UPside prepaid card account has lower fees than other spending cards available. And the majority of these fees can be avoided by managing your card correctly – checking your balance online, loading funds from an employer or from a checking account.

Net spend keeps your money safe in the account rather than your wallet where the risk involved is more taking into account the vicious world filled with the prying eyes of pick picketers. So it is better to pay a small fee in terms of maintenance fees rather than losing all your money. Net spend charges a minimal monthly charge less than even 10$ as a token for maintenance.
Most of the companies claiming to have a no credit check policy have hidden charges which are not mentioned till the actual card is taken and even then they are mentioned in very small print. The user gets to know these details as and when the money actually starts getting deducted.
Net Spend is very transparent regarding these issues and has NO HIDDEN charges. You can go on to enjoy your facilities with no fear of paying extra unwanted money to the company.
