Thanks to everyone who participated in Facecard’s Member Survey last week! We were thrilled to see a record number of responses and will be incorporating all of your great ideas and suggestions as we continue to enhance the Facecard member experience.

Congratulations to our two survey winners, Chad Neuzil and Darlene Bimbai, who both received $100 loaded onto their Facecard. Darlene wrote in to let us know that she plans to use her prize money to help fund a road trip that she will be taking this summer.

Share your Facecard gifting story

Thursday, May 7th, 2009

Have you and your friends ever pulled your money together on a Facecard to buy a gift? For example, my siblings and I thought of the perfect gift for our mom for Mother’s Day. They each put money on my Facecard and I bought the gift.

Do you have a similar story? If so, we’d love to hear it.   

Make life easier on your mom this Mother’s Day

Tuesday, May 5th, 2009

Are you constantly asking your mom for your allowance or money on the go?  Make it easier on yourself and your mom and tell her about Facecard.  With Facecard, she can send you money online from anywhere, anytime and that money will be available on your Facecard instantly. This will save her from making a trip to the ATM or mailing a check. Best of all, she will never have to worry about you getting stranded without money in an emergency situation.

 

Facecard will help your mom with more than just sending you money. She can use it as a budgeting tool by putting a certain amount of money on her Facecard at the beginning of each week or month. Once the money is gone, it’s gone. This means no more overdrafts or overspending. She can also enjoy Prewards which will allow her to save as she spends.

 

So for this Mother’s Day, give your mom something with lasting value – a Facecard. She’ll receive all the benefits that Facecard has to offer as well as the peace of mind that you have chosen to spend responsibly with Facecard.
