To help empower the next generation with early access to financial tools and knowledge, Mastercard and Access Bank Ghana have launched an innovative card under Access Bank’s youth banking proposition, AccessU. This unique offering is designed to empower Ghanaians aged 13 to 40 with essential financial solutions that align with different life stages and evolving aspirations. This new proposition is structured into three key life stages: teens, young professionals, and middle-established professionals —with each stage offering tailored features that meet the evolving financial needs of Ghanaians.

For teens, the offering includes a prepaid or reloadable debit card with parental controls, expense-tracking tools, and scheduled allowances, aimed at teaching budgeting, saving, and financial responsibility. In addition, the card offers discounts on gaming, streaming services, and educational platforms.
