MYplash is a new celebrity-driven brand of prepaid MasterCard cards produced by Plastic Cash International. MYplash connects fans with their favorite artists. The cards are available for purchase through www.myplash.com. MYplash is a re-loadable prepaid card, not a credit card. It can be used anywhere MasterCard Debit Cards are accepted, including online, at retail stores and As.
With a MYplash prepaid MasterCard, you pay as you go by pre-paying the amount you wish to spend. This means you can only spend the funds which have been loaded onto the card.
Simple Plan's five members, vocalist Pierre Bouvier, drummer Chuck Comeau, bassist David Desrosiers and guitarists Sebastien Lefebvre and Jeff Stinco, used to tour in their parents' station wagon in Montreal. Now, for the 'Noise To The World Tour,' the Canadian band's crew bus has been painted with the image of it's MYplash prepaid MasterCard.
The multi-platinum group just released their second album, 'Still Not Getting Any,' a follow up to their hit album 'No Pads, No Helmets, Just Balls' released in 2002. Simple Plan has sold over two million records and has been nominated for four MTV Video Music Awards.
Good Charlotte was started by twin brothers Joel and Benji Madden in 1996. They made their self-titled release on Epic records in 2000 and then released The Young & The Hopeless in 2002. In 2003, the band really took off with the release of Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous and Anthem.
Simple Plan and Good Charlotte are just two of the many groups and artists that have signed with MYplash. Many more are expected to join the MyPlash community in the near future to help create the largest roster of artists and celebrities for fans to choose from when selecting a prepaid card.
MYplash is designed for use by fans of all ages. However, you must be 18 years or older to purchase the card. MYplash cardholders can purchase the card at www.myplash.com. Prepaid MasterCard cards are also a practical option for consumers who may not want, or qualify for, a credit card or for those who do not have a traditional banking relationship but still desire the financial flexibility, convenience and security inherent in carrying MasterCard cards.
