School day, school days, dear old Golden Rule days... did your grandparents ever sing that song to you? If you are a parent reading this, it might have triggered memories of the end of summer and trudging back to class with your backpack full of everything you needed for the year. However, now it's your children's turn to return to class in August or September.

That said, their return to school means needing funds for lunch, snacks, or just being able to have a way to pay for things on a field trip. So if you are looking for a convenient way to manage your children's spending, then we're glad you're here! 

By signing up for a Fancard Prepaid Mastercard® account and registering sub-cards, you can provide your child a safer way to use funds when they get back to school. Plus, you can monitor spending to make sure they're actually using it for the things you intended!

Here are 4️⃣ reasons a Fancard sub-card makes sense for your child, teen, or college student

If you have children, you know that they can be quite a wild-card within your day-to-day or monthly budget. Eventually, they reach an age where they will want to spend money on their own. Two of the biggest challenges you will undoubtedly face is keeping your kids on a weekly, bi-weekly or perhaps a monthly budget, and teaching your children the importance of managing their money responsibly. 

It could be an allowance, money earned for completing chores or a part-time job. Nevertheless, how to handle money is an important lesson for children that will pay huge dividends as they grow up.
