It should work as long as the Merchant accept MasterCard. It goes through the same network that MasterCard uses for it Credit Card. Do not change the signature. Use your real signature-no fakes.
Merchants may think the card has been tampered with if you changed the signature. I looked up info on the card and the fees are high for this mastercard electronic card.

became a federal regulation you could not value extra to a shopper who makes use of a mastercard. you could supply a money low cost to money shopper yet not value extra to the mastercard consumer. This reg has expired. even with the undeniable fact that Visa/Mastercharge have words on your card settlement that limit the further value/surcharge only for utilising the cardboard. imagine about giving the money low cost on your shoppers really. even as this is unclear someone will flow to problem to whinge to VISA, you may dodge the region in destiny.

Yup... i think so as long it states mastercard electronic, merchants will accepting if he does have a mastercard line. becos yours is a debit card so it might not have your name, so if u wan to change to a more diffcult signture, u need to call the bank and ask.. oh just rememeber to have enough cash in ur bank acct before u use it.

using of the card for transactions should'nt have any problem unless there is no money inside, but problem is no name print on it so as to verify the user.
this depends on the merchants whether they accept it.
changing of signatures might need to call up the bank's customer service hotline to check it out.
