Facecard
In the summer of 2007, local Nashville business man Ed Braswell recognized the need for a financial tool designed for young adults that combined a multitude of unique features to help them better manage their money and spending habits.
With his two daughters as inspiration, Braswell took a closer look at their finances and began to notice how gift cards were going to waste after birthdays, cash was frequently needed, and $35 overdraft fees kept appearing on their bank statements.
Braswell formulated the idea for a prepaid but reloadable card that friends and family can load money onto. Thus facecard was born and has since evolved with added features that allow members to receive account balance notification on their mobile phone as well as digital incentives, better known as Prewards, directly onto their card.
This past summer, local retailers offered facecard members Prewards, which work like coupons without the codes or paper cutting, that automatically deducted the Preward amount from member’s cards at checkout. Facecard members are now receiving Preward offers from retailers such as Moe’s, WhichWich, Cloudveil.com, and UltimateEars.com.
Here are some additional reasons why members love their facecards:
o Not a Credit Card: Facecard is not a credit card, so there’s no chance of getting into credit card debt.
o No Activation or Monthly Fees: Unlike other cards, there are no fees to sign up.
o Receive Money in Minutes: Friends and Family can load your card online from anywhere, anytime.
o ATM Access: Facecard is accepted virtually everywhere, including ATMs.
o Friend to Friend Gifts and Paybacks: Giving a gift is as simple as typing an email address. All of those holiday gifts can go directly onto the card.
o Prewards: Members receive digital incentives automatically loaded to their facecard.
As facecard’s gift to you this holiday season, they will automatically load $10 onto your facecard if you sign up before December 31st! Click here to sign up
