Overview<br />
• The ability for cardholders to reload their prepaid cards with ease and<br />
convenience is important to the ongoing growth and success of<br />
prepaid cards worldwide.<br />
• Consumers can already reload many prepaid cards through<br />
arrangements between issuers/service providers and a number of<br />
established physical or virtual networks - but the consumer, merchant<br />
and issuer experience varies.<br />
• Through the standards introduced by the <strong>MasterCard</strong> rePower point<br />
of sale load network, retail cash reloads become consistent for<br />
cardholders and easier to manage for merchants, issuers,<br />
programme managers and cash acceptance networks.<br />

Business Approach<br />
Following the launch of <strong>MasterCard</strong> rePower in the US, <strong>MasterCard</strong><br />
is launching a point-of-sale reload service in Europe. This means<br />
that……………….<br />
• Cardholders will be able to load their prepaid cards at participating<br />
<strong>MasterCard</strong> rePower merchants, and ultimately benefit by having<br />
more locations available for reload<br />
• Participating merchants will have the flexibility to set/charge reload<br />
fees, ensuring reload pricing is driven by market forces<br />
• Issuers and Programme Managers can benefit from using a branded<br />
reload service without needing to negotiate fees or set up separate<br />
connections with individual networks and providers<br />
• Acquirers have an opportunity to increase transaction volumes<br />

Cardholder Experience<br />
1 Cardholder presents<br />
reloadable prepaid card at<br />
<strong>MasterCard</strong> ® rePower <strong>TM</strong><br />
merchant<br />
2 Merchant accepts the<br />
cash and swipes card<br />
3 Merchant returns<br />
the card and receipt<br />
indicating the amount<br />
loaded and fee paid<br />
….and that’s it. Funds are<br />
immediately available for use!<br />

The EMV Difference<br />
In the US and Europe today, prepaid card<br />
reload is mag-stripe based<br />
All European reloadable prepaid cards<br />
must be Chip&PIN enabled by Jan 2011<br />
Prepaid cards with MChip can<br />
manage contactless balances/risk off-line<br />
Mag-stripe reloads can credit funds to<br />
server balances, but can’t script EMV<br />
data/value to the Chip during the same<br />
transaction<br />
<strong>MasterCard</strong> rePower will ensure that<br />
Chip-based reloads can be supported as<br />
merchant/POS technology evolves<br />
