Trouble redeeming or using a prepaid Visa or Mastercard reward

Prepaid Visa and Mastercard rewards from Matter are issued by MyPrepaidCenter, so card activation, balance and decline problems are resolved by their support team, not Matter.

Written by Brett Hellman

Prepaid Visa and Mastercard rewards redeemed through Matter are issued and managed by MyPrepaidCenter. Matter does not have access to a card's activation status, balance or transaction history, so problems using the card are resolved directly with the card issuer.

For an overview of the whole feature, read the Rewards Guide. Related articles: Rewards redemption history and reward statuses and Redeeming Matter coins for rewards.

Who can use this: Any member who has redeemed a prepaid Visa or Mastercard reward.

What to do

  1. Open your reward email from Matter and find the card link. It takes you to MyPrepaidCenter, where you activate the card and check its balance.

  2. If the card will not activate, is declined, or the balance looks wrong, contact MyPrepaidCenter. They offer different phone numbers and options depending on your card and situation.

  3. Check that your country is supported. Prepaid cards cannot be used in MyPrepaidCenter's list of prohibited countries.
