OneUnion Prepaid Debit Card
The UWI Credit Union, in partnership with the City of Bridgetown Co-operative Credit Union Limited (COB), is offering its members a prepaid debit card.
Prepaid debit cards can help you to:
- Manage your funds [you can only spend what is on the card].
- Purchase items at local point-of-sale machines.
- Withdraw cash from local ATMs (fees will be applicable at any non-COB ATMs).
- Shop online. Avoid lines, traffic delays and excessive travel to the Credit Union to withdraw cash over the counter.
Remember, only you should have access to your card. Do not share your pin with anyone!
