What's Good
The Orange prepaid MasterCard is an intriguing and attractive addition to the prepaid card circuit, particularly for Orange Pay As You Go customers who earn rewards when they use the card to make purchases both online and on the high street. You do not need to have a bank account or even really be an Orange customer to apply for the card, which suggests Orange are looking to target the card at a broad but youthful market. It can obviously be used at the multitude of places worldwide where MasterCard is accepted and appeals as a viable alternative to carrying large amounts of cash when abroad.
What's not so good?
Despite it not being a pre-requisite for application, you really do need to be an Orange cash card customer to earn the PAYG rewards and therefore get the most out of the card. If you are attached to another network there might be more suitable options for you on the wider prepaid market
