Our Travellers cashcard is the answer to all of your employees travel money needs. A secure prepaid MasterCard® means there is no need to take lots of cash or to carry a passport for cashing travellers' cheques. The card can simply be pre-loaded, and then topped up online at anytime for greater flexibility, safety and control.

Raphaels Bank, a sister company of ICE, is an issuing and acquiring member of both Visa and MasterCard and we use these memberships to work with partners that are not card scheme members to bring new PrePaid card propositions to the market-place.

We are working with a number of household names to issue pre-paid cards ranging through travel, payroll, money transfer, general payments (unbanked / youth market), gift cards, insurance claim disbursement and other payment cards.

Our regulatory expertise and settlement capabilities combined with our card scheme memberships give us a unique market positioning in the UK and we are actively developing new relationships with a range of UK, USA, European and other overseas partners.

Raphaels Bank has contractual relationships with a number of processors including e-funds, MasterCard, TSYS, Symmetrix and TNS. We also have agreements to work with most of the other key processors in the UK market. We also maintain relationships with a range of card manufacturers allowing us to build flexible solutions in the pre-paid market.
