After nearly 2 months of waiting, my Odesk Prepaid Mastercard™ has finally arrived at my doorsteps. This has been made possible by the partnership of Odesk and Payoneer. But what is a Debit card and what is its difference from a credit card. To put it simply, you can use your credit card until you reached your credit limit whereas the debit card will use up the money that is loaded unto it. For me the debit is the “safer choice” since I really have the knack for gadgets and you know that it is so much more convenient to shop online nowadays. You will be spared from the so-called credit card pitfall.
The best thing about this debit card is that I got it for FREE. I’m a sucker for free stuff,especially those stuff where I can really use for my rackets. I got this for free by joining www.odesk.com. Odesk is a freelancer’s haven, where employers and freelancers meet. You can really earn by doing jobs in odesk, though I have not been active lately but who knows? Maybe one of these days. Having a debit card solves my problems on paying for online stuff such as domains, hosting, themes and other things that can only be purchased by credit cards. (yes you can use debit cards, they are almost the same but they just differ on the technicalities). Debit cards are really good for those guys out there who does’nt have the liberty of having a credit card as well as those who are very much impulsive when it comes to buying stuff. In Debit Cards, the rule is simple: No Money , No Purchase. This will help you avoid credit problems as well as it provides a better control of one’s financial resources.

Hi malko,
Your Debit Card is not exclusive for Odesk only. You can use it anywhere and anybody with a credit card can load cash unto it. Once your debit card arrives, you are required to activate it at payoneer. There’s a link in there that will provide you (or any person for that matter) to add funds to your debit card. HTH
