“Paybefore applauds the leaders in our industry who are applying the flexibility and appeal of prepaid to innovate on behalf of consumers, governments and businesses”
Paybefore Awards, now in its fourth year, is the most prestigious recognition of excellence in the prepaid industry. The awards are presented annually by Prepaid Media, whose Paybefore publications are the leading source of industry information for the global prepaid community.
“We are honored to receive the Paybefore Award for the innovation of the InsurCard Visa Prepaid Card,” said John Barbella, Senior Vice President, The Bancorp Bank. "We believe that prepaid cards will revolutionize the way the insurance industry makes payments as insurers seek ways to control payments and drive cost savings while providing enhanced customer care. We are very excited about the InsurCard program and we are anticipating rapid growth in this space."
InsurCard was selected by a panel of five industry experts who served as judges for this year’s competition. A record number of entries from around the world were received.
“Paybefore applauds the leaders in our industry who are applying the flexibility and appeal of prepaid to innovate on behalf of consumers, governments and businesses,” said Marilyn Bochicchio, Paybefore CEO and chair of the judging panel. “InsurCard has distinguished itself in a tough field of competition,” she continued. “We are proud to recognize its contributions to advancing the use of prepaid products.”
Issuing checks has become cumbersome in the world of electronic payments. The InsurCard offers great benefits for an injured worker or a displaced homeowner because they can begin using the funds immediately anywhere that Visa debit cards are accepted.
InsurCard, which has already been approved for use in workers compensation claims in 38 states, will vie for best-in-category distinction, which will be announced during the Paybefore Awards ceremony on Feb. 22 at the Prepaid Expo USA (www.prepaidexpousa.com).
InsurCard Visa Prepaid Card is issued by The Bancorp Bank pursuant to a license from Visa U.S.A. Inc. The Bancorp Bank; Member FDIC.
