If you are creative and enjoy contests you might want to try your hand at the PAYjr Visa Buxx Teen Credit Card design competition. You could win some great prizes if your design wins the competition.
The contest is for a new prepaid credit card that teens are loving and parents are thrilled to use. Parents can load the card with the money that they’d normally pay their teen for chores around the house or with whatever amount of money they think is reasonable for their teen to have access to and then there teen can use the card wherever PAYjr Visa cards are accepted.
What’s great about this credit card is not only that it’s prepaid, it’s that teens can design their own card or choose from designs that have already been created. This of course is where the contest comes in. Do you think you can create a credit card design that teens will love using?
The design contest winner will be awarded with an Apple Laptop, the second place winner will get an Apple Video iPod and the third place winner will get an iPod Nano. I know that if I entered the contest I’d be pleased to win any of those prizes.
The winning designs will be used in the PAYjr Visa Credit card gallery where teens can choose to use them for their own credit card.
Just go to the page that I’ve linked to above and follow the instructions to enter the contest and upload your design. Once you’ve submitted your design you’ll be given code that you can place on your website or myspace page which will help you gain votes for the contest. The top three highest voted designs will win the contest.
Give it a try if you want to win any of those great prizes!
But it is just one of those thousands marketing tricks…for card issuiers
hmmmm… I am still trying to digest the words teens and credit cards together. Can’t compute- can’t compute….smoke is coming out of my ears. I know you posted the words “prepaid” too and that makes it sound somewhat safer. I especially liked this part of your post-
“Do you think you can create a credit card design that teens will love using?” Umm are there any credt cards that teenagers don’t like using- I am thinking I would just post a picture of a Mom’s open purse for my credit card design, or maybe just right the words “Have at it!” over the Visa logo. Really- I am not trying to be offensive, I am just an old tightwad who’s new to the teenager thing. My oldest son enters high school this year and I write at a blog called Smart not Cheap so that’s where I am coming from. Great blog you have going here- Michelle
