The Trusted Person Card is a debit card linked to your own personal current account. But unlike other debit cards you may have, your trusted person can use it to buy the things you need.
You can give the Trusted Person Card and PIN to different trusted people at different times to use for spending or taking money out from a cash machine. To protect you, the card has a weekly spending limit of £100 and a weekly cash withdrawal limit of £100.
When you give them your Trusted Person Card, it means you’re agreeing they can make payments and withdrawals from your account up to the weekly limits.
Please remember, you should not give your PIN out for any other cards you might have other than the Trusted Person Card.
Key benefits of the Trusted Person Card:
You will retain full control of the account, keep track of how it is being used and will be able to cancel the Trusted Person Card at any time.
- Your trusted person can use the Trusted Person Card to withdraw £100 a week from a cash machine and make purchases at UK tills and terminals of up to £100 a week. There are some limited circumstances where these limits could be exceeded which are outlined in the Terms and Conditions.
