Even it's not the best, but their card can be reloaded immediately from the app if you use your phone's NFC with the card to reload it.
This is a limitation of stored value cards....
But not in the use case described above. To quote the Presto web site: "Funds loaded online to your physical PRESTO card will be ready to use in 4 to 7 hours."
Faster than 24 hours, but certainly not immediate.
The reload IS immediate if you use the NFC reload feature on the app. It's different than just a standard reload, once the balance is loaded you can use the NFC function and hold the card to the back of the phone, it takes about 5 seconds to write the balance to the card.
