Prepaid refers to a payment method where funds are deposited in advance, allowing users to spend only what they have loaded onto the account or card. In contrast, a charge account allows users to make purchases up to a certain limit with the agreement to pay the balance in full at a later date, often monthly. While prepaid balances cannot exceed the amount loaded, charge accounts can lead to accumulating debt if not managed properly. Both options offer different levels of financial flexibility and budgeting control.
