The content on this page is accurate as of the posting date; however, some of the offers mentioned may have expired.

The Western Union NetSpend card is not a credit card but a prepaid card. Therefore, you won't find interest rates. Prepaid cards do not charge interest because you do not have access to a line of credit. You can spend only what you have already loaded on to the card.
