Spend your student budget smarter, with HyperJar
The free HyperJar app and prepaid student card lets you organise your spending in mini-accounts, shown as digital jars in the app. Create the jars that suit your life and budget, for everything from rent, bills, nights out and food to longer-term plans for things like a summer trip with friends. With the smart HyperJar prepaid card you can pay from any jar directly, so you’re always spending from the right budget.
Managing money like this helps you to see exactly how much you’ve got for the term, where it needs to go - and when you might need a top-up from a friendly parent.
What can I use a HyperJar prepaid student card for?
Decide what you can spend in the week, month or term ahead on the essentials as well as nights out or weekends away. If you’re planning a festival trip with friends, create a jar for that, share it with them and all start chipping in what you can, when you can. Like a WhatsApp group for money.
Use the card anywhere that takes Mastercard - online, in stores, at home or on holiday. Unlike many banks, we don’t add any fees on top when you spend abroad with your HyperJar card.

It’s really easy to stay 100% fee-free by sticking to a couple of simple rules: deposits in to your HyperJar account should be for £10 or more.

No. One of the great things about a prepaid card that you can’t get into debt and no one is trying to pitch you an overdraft or credit product.
If you think your student card has been lost or stolen, you can freeze it in your app immediately. You can do this by going to the Profile tab, selecting Manage Card, and then make sure Freeze Card is toggled on.
Once you’ve done this, the card will not work until you unfreeze it in the app. If you can’t find the card, you should then contact us via Live Chat for more help.
HyperJar is not a bank, but you’ll get many of the same benefits and some extra security features too. Unlike many traditional banking apps and cards, we offer loads of money management and spending tools. If you lose your HyperJar card, you can freeze it directly from the app (and unfreeze it if the card is found).
