A prepaid card allows for prepaying for access to a web site configured to provide for management of personal health care records. The prepaid card includes a first surface, a second surface opposite the first surface, a promotional code printed on the second surface, a scratch box on the second surface and overlaying the promotional code. The promotional code may be associated with a monetary value for the prepaid card on the web site configured to provide for management of personal health care records. A method for providing a service facilitating online management of personal health records includes receiving data from a prepaid card at a web server, activating a new user account for the online management of personal health records using the data from the prepaid card; and providing online access to the new user account.
