Our verdict
Soldo is a prepaid Mastercard for businesses that issue cards to employees, teams and contractors, with client funds safeguarded in segregated accounts at European banks. A £27 monthly card fee puts it above the lower-cost prepaid options, so it suits firms paying for card controls rather than price alone.
