2. Bank transfer (via phone or internet banking)

To top up via internet or telephone banking, this is what you need to do:

  • Ensure you have registered your email address with us in the secure 'My Account' area on this website.
  • In ‘My Account’, set the currency that you would like to top up as your default currency; this is where we will allocate your money. You can only top up one currency per bank transfer.
  • Then you can either phone your bank or log into your bank account via your bank’s website and create a new payee to make a GBP payment.

Please use the following details:

  • Bank details Beneficiary/Payee: Mastercard Prepaid
  • Sort code: 20-32-53
  • Account number: 63807568
  • Reference: Your 16 digit Multi-currency Cash Passport card number (on the front of Card)
  • Amount: Please ensure that the amount you load on your Card is within the allowed Card limits.

You may top up a maximum of £5,000 per day (across all currencies on the Card) via a bank transfer, but your total card balance at any one time (including all currencies) may not exceed £5,000.

It may take up to 5 working days for your bank to transfer the funds to us, however, be assured that we will load the funds onto your Cash Passport within 24 hours of receiving them. We will send you confirmation via email that your top up has been successful.

Remember to set/change your preferred default currency in ‘My Account’ before transferring your money to us. Payments made in GBP will be converted to the relevant default currency, which will be set as GBP until changed. You will find the rate we used on your top up confirmation.
