As a result of the new capabilities, ICM Capital’s traders will be able to integrate their existing trading accounts with the Prepaid MasterCard credit card in order to transfer funds between their respective accounts and the card. Moreover, the card will also garner the benefit of paying for goods and services via MasterCard worldwide.

According to Shoaib Abedi, Director at ICM Capital, in a recent statement on the launch: “We have recently announced the launch of our own branded ICM Capital prepaid MasterCard Card. Delivering a seamless trading experience for our customers is a priority for us.”

“Our traders are able to link this Card to their ICM Capital trading accounts, and use it in stores and ATM machines bearing the MasterCard Acceptance Mark. Integrating this card into our system makes it easy to move funds to and from the Card 24 hours a day via ICM Access, our trader’s personal account management system,” he added.

“As the leading global provider of prepaid card programmes, Intercash is thrilled to launch this exciting partnership with ICM Capital and reinforce our strong footprint within the Forex industry,” noted Patrick Seguev, CEO, Intercash in an accompanying statement.
