If you are simply referring to a prepaid card like the Mango Money card and American Express Pass the answer is MAYBE. Prepaid cards have different fee structures that are determined by the company that issues it- just because two prepaid cards from different companies both have a VISA or MasterCard logo on them doesn't mean that they both have the same cost. Feel free to look up any prepaid card offers you see online or in the mail, or find a "rate detective" to help you gather any information you need...

Meanwhile, you may also be referring to a secured credit card. These are credit cards which require you to provide a security deposit just in case you fail to pay. These also have different fee structures- one secured card may have a low monthly fee or none at all but carries a noticeably higher interest rate, while another may have a very low APR but carries a fee billed month to month.

If you don't have any money on your prepaid credit card can you still make a transaction?

Picture a prepaid credit card like a wallet. Can you still buy things when there is no money in your wallet? No you can't. A prepaid credit card is not really a credit card in the sense of the word credit. Credit means that you can purchase something now and pay for it later. A prepaid card has a limit on it and once that limit has been used, like your empty wallet it is no longer useful.

What is the difference between a prepaid and a regular Visa credit card?

Although the cards can be used in the same way, there are some significant differences in prepaid and regular credit cards. With a regular credit card, you make your purchases on credit and then pay your bill later. If you do not pay the bill in full each month, or are late making a payment, there will be fees accrued in the form of interest and late fees. With a prepaid credit card, you deposit money much the same way you would with a checking or savings account. Then when you use your prepaid credit card, the charges are deducted from your balance. When you start to run low on your balance, you can just deposit more money in your account. In this way, prepaid credit cards operate much the same as debit cards. You will probably have to pay an initial fee to set up your prepaid credit card account, but after that you avoid the possibility of interest and late fee charges. This is also a good way to rebuild your credit if you have had financial difficulties in the past.
