top up (pay-as-you-go mobile phone)

How do they work?
You top up your prepaid card with cash just as you would a pay-as-you-go mobile phone or prepaid gift card. Then, when you come to make a purchase or withdraw cash from an ATM the value of your transaction is automatically deducted from your card balance. Once you've used up all the credit loaded on your card you won't be able to make any further purchases until you next top up.

„pay-as-you-go“, kai kalbame apie mob. tel., „prepaid“ labiau apie banko korteles

Čia JK sakome ir „pay-as-you-go mobile phone“, kai perkame telefoną be kontrakto, bet jei sakinyje yra „card“, tai aišku galima versti „pay-as-you-go card“

su transportu sakyčiau „prepaid card“č žr. Instead of having the correct change with you for each bus journey, it will now be possible to use a prepaid, registered card to pay for journeys. The iff card comes with £3 of free credit pre-loaded. http://studentnews.southwales.ac.uk/news/2010/oct/18/iff-car...
Note from asker:
Is there any difference between "pay-as-you-go" and "prepaid" card?
Supratau, bet tuomet gal ne "mobile phone", o "pay-as-you-go card"? ar ne taip?
Supratau, dėkoju už išsamų atsakymą
Dabar galvoju, o jeigu tai būtų viešojo transporto išankstinio papildymo kortelė? Ar tuomet būtų "pay-as-you-go" ar "prepaid"?
Peer comment(s):

agree The LT>EN Guy : "papildyti" is to "top up". The askes should post a separate question for the other queries.
