Whether spending at home or while travelling, ATM fees and other hidden costs can be very sneaky in how quickly they add up. Luckily, the EQ Bank Card<\/strong><\/a> can help keep these expenses at bay.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this article, we review the EQ Bank Card<\/strong> to help you decide whether it’s a good card to add to your wallet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What Is the EQ Bank Card?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n\n\n

The EQ Bank Card<\/strong> is one of the many financial products offered by EQ Bank<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Unlike traditional banks, EQ doesn\u2019t offer a debit card option for you to access your account funds. Instead, the EQ Bank Card<\/a> is a prepaid Mastercard that you load with funds from your EQ bank account<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How is the EQ Bank Card different from a traditional debit card?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Given that the EQ Bank Card<\/strong> is essentially a credit card and not a debit card, there are few key differences that are important to note:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

First, your EQ Bank Card<\/a> is not attached to your EQ bank accounts, so you’re not able to just spend the available account balance(s). Instead, you need to load funds from your bank account onto your EQ card, and you’re then limited to spending however much you’ve loaded \u2013 though, of course, you’re able to add more money whenever you’d like.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Additionally, the EQ Bank Card acts like a credit card<\/strong>, not a debit card<\/strong>. This is convenient in that it lets you make online purchases from retailers that don’t accept debit cards, but it also means that you can’t use this card at smaller retailers that only accept cash and debit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pleasantly, unlike traditional debit cards, the EQ Bank Card lets you earn 0.5% cash back on all your purchases<\/strong>, giving you a little something extra back whenever you use it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
