If you’re in the process of switching your bank account from one banking provider to the icount Current Account with prepaid MasterCard, you will need to tell your employer to change your details on their payroll.
This means that your wage will be paid directly into your icount account each time you receive your salary, whether that’s monthly or weekly.
Let icount do the hard work for you
If you are currently paid in cash, switching to a bank transfer means you won’t have to carry cash and spend time paying money in yourself.
You’ll also have access to the app, which means you can keep a close eye on your balance and any deposits and payments throughout the month.
Find out more about the advantages offered with the icount prepaid MasterCard account.
