Spending money with the Control Prepaid MasterCard is simple. The card can be used as a credit card or debit card. MasterCard is widely accepted around the world. It can be used online, over the phone and in person. When cash is needed, it can be used as a debit card for cash back or at ATM machines. When funds are low, money can be loaded in a number of ways.

This includes direct deposit, account transfers, from others with a Control card and by visiting a location in the NetSpend Reload Network. Managing the account is made possible with an online account center as well as mobile alerts to tell of various account activity. Customer service can also be contacted via a toll free number.
