How the Rewire Card Changes Daily Life for Caregivers
The iSavta Team | 02.12.2024
If you're a migrant caregiver in Israel, you know the journey you're on isn't just about the miles you've crossed but also about making sense of your new life here. Money matters can feel like a whole new world - but, with the right tools, your financial life can become as gentle as the care you provide.
Imagine Angela, a caregiver like you. Let’s say Angela’s mornings begin before the sun is out, and every minute counts. After getting her paycheck, she would look for the closest bank, which wasn’t always easy to find. She would constantly check the bank's working hours to figure out the best time to deposit her check, as many branches operated during her own work hours. Sometimes, she had to run around with her salary in cash, wishing for a safer way to manage it. Once her salary was safely deposited, she then had to figure out how to send that money back home, timing her transfers so that they match good exchange rates, and making sure the money she puts aside is safe. That was until she discovered the Rewire prepaid card.
Get Paid and Send Money Home Effortlessly
The first time Angela used her Rewire Card was when she urgently needed to send her salary back home. Before, this meant carrying cash, making a risky trip to a distant bank branch, dealing with inconvenient hours, and worrying about exchange rates. But with the Rewire Card, everything changed.
Angela’s employer could now load her salary directly onto her card. The money was there, ready for her to send home with just a few taps on her phone. No more waiting, no more stress—just fast transfers and great rates, whenever she needed them.
More than just a card
According to Angela, the Rewire Card is more than just a piece of plastic that she carries around. It's a symbol of independence and control over her financial life. Angela feels like a local because her Rewire Card is connected to a bank account under her name at the Bank of Jerusalem*. All the paperwork is already handled, and she can focus on what matters most, not the bureaucracy. Angela thinks about it this way: “Having the card connected to a bank account adds an extra level of security for my money.”
Shopping made easy, anywhere, anytime
Shopping in a foreign country can be overwhelming, given the need to constantly think about currency exchange or carrying cash. With her Rewire Card, Angela shops with confidence, knowing she's getting good exchange rates without hidden fees. She knows that there are zero fees for depositing money or activating the card. When withdrawing cash from ATMs around the country or exchanging to shekels, she enjoys attractive rates.
Angela can shop at any store in Israel and even online. She can eat out and use her Rewire Card to pay for her favorite shawarma at Shuk Ha-Carmel, stress-free.
Security and convenience in Angela’s pocket
Angela values her peace of mind. One of the great things about the card for Angela is the fact that she can check her balance and transaction history in the Rewire app, to which the card is linked. It has become a daily ritual that gives her comfort. And, when Angela once forgot her PIN at a busy store, she didn't panic. A few clicks within the app, and her PIN was restored.
But the convenience Angela experiences goes beyond just user-friendly design. The Rewire app comes in her language (and many others), which makes it easy to use the app. This makes the app more personal and reassuring. Angela can get help in her own language from customer service as well, any time of the day, any day of the week.
A new chapter
For Angela, and other caregivers like her, the Rewire prepaid Card has opened up a world of financial flexibility and security. It's more than convenience; it's about giving her the time and peace of mind to focus on what she does — caring for others and her family back home.
