Understanding Monthly Reload & Reset for Prepaid

Why Use Monthly Reload & Reset?

Monthly Reload automates recurring credit replenishment. Instead of manually adding credit to every card each month, configure it once and the system handles it.

Essential for:

• Employee benefit programs with fixed monthly food allowances.
• Subscription-style vending with monthly transaction counts.
• Campus or institutional settings with auto-renewing student cards.

 

ℹ️ TIP Combined with spending limits and group limitations, Monthly Reload creates a fully managed closed-loop system that runs on autopilot.

 

How It Works

At the start of each month, the system checks every card with a Monthly Limit Reload value and either resets or accumulates credit:

Setting	Behavior
Monthly Limit Reload	Credit loaded at month start.
Accumulated Credit ✅	Reload ADDS to existing balance (rollover).
Accumulated Credit ❌	Balance RESETS to reload amount (unused credit lost).
Single Use ✅	Disables monthly reload entirely.
Single Use ❌	Monthly reload active (if value > 0).

 

⚠️ NOTE Monthly Limit Reload = 0 means no credit added. Different from Single Use - 0 keeps the card active but adds nothing.

 

✅ PREREQUISITES A prepaid card exists. You know the card’s Credit Type (Money or Transaction).

 

Use Case Examples

No Rollover: Monthly Reload = 100, Accumulated = ❌. Employee spent €70 in March (€30 left) > April resets to €100.

With Rollover: Monthly Reload = 100, Accumulated = ✅. €30 left + €100 reload = €130 in April.

Transaction Card: Monthly Reload = 30, Accumulated = ❌. Card resets to 30 vends each month.
