Yes got one for my daughter to take on a school trip to Japan last year as her normal bank ATM card wouldn't be accepted outside major cities and then only in very few ATM machines at high costs. Thought it safer for a 15 year old to take some local cash and a card that I could add money too from home if she ran out of money. The card worked well when she needed it . she only used it for shopping as her host families were extremely genourous and would not let her pay for anything while in their care. Still had money on when she got home so used it to pay some on line bills. Just be aware that checking the balance by phone costs money off the card but online is free.
