Any reccomendations for a pre paid or some for of card you top up. Our main account is with Nationwide but thinking about something else that you can use in places where you just don't trust or for travel/fuel. Or should i just use apple pay as normal.

Apple Pay is tokenised so they can't get anything similar to "skimming" that can happen to traditional cards.

Open a Chase account and enjoy the cashback. Put the card on Apple Pay as above. No overdraft and you can treat it a bit like a prepaid card by transferring amounts over and not running a big balance if you prefer to work that way.

Starling and just transfer over what you need/think you might spend
