Use Prepaid Cards to Save Your Kids (or Yourself) a Vacation Budget
It is difficult to stick to your budget when traveling , especially if you have kids who need souvenirs or gifts that can fold. Instead, consider downloading a prepaid card before you travel and gifting it to your kids, or using it to limit your own souvenir spending.
Prepaid travel cards have amounts printed on them, so you or your child can only spend a certain amount. Give them the card at the start of the trip, tell them how much it says, and let them know how much money they have for the vacation. It’s also safer than handing over a wad of cash as you can quickly void your card if it’s lost or stolen. However, before choosing a card, check the issuer’s website for any commissions or other fees, how to report a lost or stolen card, and how to add more money to your card if you need to.
