The Solo card is the sister of
the Maestro Card and it was
launched in July 1997 as one of
the world's premier payment
systems. It's an electronic
debit card that its customers
can use to pay for good and
services online and off at any
merchant or retailer that
accepts it. This includes, much
to the Solo card's customer's
pleasure, funding your online
poker cash account.
The Solo card is appreciated by
those banking entities that
issue it because it provides
their customers with safe and
modern banking via electronic
methods at a low cost. There is
a high degree of fraud control
built into the card and it
allows retailers to enhance
their electronic payment
services and allow for more
customers and less paper and
cash handling.
For customers, they enjoy
knowing that they can only spend
what is in their Solo card
account and that every
transaction made with the card
is pre-approved. People who have
had problems getting accounts
such as these in the past will
now have new opportunities
opened to them. With over 5.3
million Solo cards in
circulation, customers are
enjoying the freedom it offers.
Users of the Solo card can open
up their account by visiting a
NatWest or HSBC bank branch, or
by visiting their websites for
more information. The Solo card
can be used abroad at places
that display the Maestro logo
only if you have the Maestro
logo on the back of your Solo
card. Some retailers in the
United Kingdom that accepts
Maestro may also accept the Solo
card if the holder inquires as
the retailer simply may not have
posted acceptance.
