August 17,2017, Fantrac Global Ltd based in London and a part of Stockholm IT Ventures AB (ISIN SE 0006027546), has confirmed the launch of a prepaid MasterCard carrying the image of Marilyn Monroe. The card will be launched in September, with a percentage of all revenues generated by cardholders being donated to Mind, the mental health charity. The card features a whole array of benefits for the cardholder, including discount vouchers for over 7,000 retailers throughout the UK, 50% discounts at over 2,500 restaurants throughout the UK as well as numerous discounts at hotels throughout the world.
The Marilyn Monroe MasterCard will be launched in the UK initially before being rolled out throughout Europe and then globally by year three. It is hoped that it will raise substantial funds for Mind over that period.
Wayne Lochner, Chairman of Stockholm IT Ventures AB said "we are delighted to launch the Marilyn Monroe card in aid of Mind, the mental health charity. We felt that given Marilyn Monroe herself experienced mental health problems, that Mind would be an appropriate charity to be the beneficiary of the card. Any funds that can be raised to help Mind, with their superb programmes that continue to engage thousands of people with mental health problems, will be hugely gratifying. We hope that Marilyn fans around the globe will be excited to carry the screen icon in their wallets."
Paul Farmer, CEO of Mind, said: "We're delighted to have been chosen by Fantrac Global as one of their charity partners. Their support will mean that Mind can continue providing vital services, like our Infoline, so people can make their own choices and access the treatment and support that is right for them. This partnership will help us make sure no one has to face a mental health problem alone."
