As the U.S. Olympic team heads for Beijing this month, not a single athlete or staff member will be without a Visa-branded prepaid card in his or her wallet. Bank of America and Visa have resurrected the Visa prepaid card for the U.S Olympic and Paralympic Games participants and staff. BofA, a "U.S. Olympic Team" sponsor since 1992, is the exclusive issuer of the Visa prepaid card for the second time, which is being offered to the entire USOC delegation for the Olympic and Paralympic Games, including more than 800 American athletes. Visa is the "Official Payment Services Brand" of the U.S. Olympic Team. The prepaid card is identifiable by the image of a U.S. flag as well as the Olympic rings and the Visa logo. BofA and Visa say the cards will help reduce administrative and processing expenses for the USOC.
