# Pre-Paid Father's Day Credit Cards Budweiser is Introducing the 'Dad Card' to Celebrate Dads By Riley von Niessen | Published 2021-05-27 | Marketing Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dad-card References: [budweiser](https://www.budweiser.com/DadCard) For Father's Day, [Budweiser](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/labor-day-cans) has launched the 'Dad Card,' a pre-paid credit card that only costs $5, yet comes with enough money to buy beer for the year. In addition to $430 worth of Budweiser, the Dad Card grants dads a physical pass to being unabashedly dad-like, whether that means mowing the lawn in a pair of not-so-trendy chunky sneakers, or proudly sharing their favorite [dad jokes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/doordad). Those interested in picking up a Dad Card ahead of Father's Day can sign up on June 18th starting at 12pm EST. Only a limited number will be offered, and fans looking to sign up must be the legal drinking age in the US. The cards can be used anywhere that Budweiser is sold.
