o2 money cards

Hi,
My 18 year old daughter is off on her first European travel adventure in a couple of weeks.
She is going to take a Travelex Cash Passport Globe, but as a back was thinking of using one of the O2 money cards.
Can anyone explain to me simply which one is best for overseas - Cash Manager or Load and go.
I have read the details on the O2 site but remain confused!!
Is the difference just the potential higher top up allowed for the cash manager, and being able to top up Load and go with cash in a shop? Or am I missing something.
I would like to be able to top her cards up while she is away.
Many thanks

You can top either card up here.
Load & Go is restricted to £720 of cash withdrawals annually. It's really a product for children.
Cash Manager is more versatile, but then again maybe too easy to access large amounts of cash.
Not a bad idea to have both a VISA and Mastercard PrePaid card.0 -
Thanks stilltheone. I think the Cash Manager will be the one then. it will be her money loaded on it anyway, so the amount will be limited by her earnings before she goes!!
Yes - my thinking had been it would be good for her to have Visa and Mastercard options. 0
