Sibstar

Creative idea

Mastercard has a strong commitment to 'Doing Well by Doing Good,' with a primary focus on financial inclusion. This dedication has driven the creation of innovative products like True Name, Touch Card, and most recently, Sibstar. Supported by Alzheimer's Society UK, Sibstar took inspiration from children's debit cards, which offer parental control tools designed for responsible spending, teaching kids financial independence. Sibstar leverages the same principles but was designed to adapt continuously to someone’s condition in order to extend their financial independence by allowing caregivers to monitor any purchases in real time, their location, set up personalized spending limits for different channels and turn features on and off.
