Is this a credit card?


No, your card is not a credit card it's a payroll card. You can only spend what you have earned, since you are using your own money from your wages.

Is my card like a debit card?


Yes and no. Like a debit card, you can spend only the funds available. However, unlike a debit card, you do not have a bank account associated with the card.

Can the card ever have a negative balance?


Usually a purchase cannot be made for more than the amount available. Occasionally a merchant will allow a purchase before checking the amount available, which might result in a negative balance. By keeping track of the amount available, you can avoid a possible fee.

How do I access funds or account information using an ATM?


Insert your card in the machine and follow the instructions for entering your Personal Identification Number (PIN). Once your PIN has been entered successfully, you can choose to withdrawal funds or perform a balance inquiry. If you chose to withdrawal cash, enter the amount you wish to withdrawal (usually in $20 bills). The ATM will present the amount of cash you requested along with a printed receipt and return your card. Record the amount you have withdrawn in your Personal Register and subtract the amount from the previous available balance to find out how much money you have left in your account.

Will I get charged a fee if I use my card to withdraw cash at an ATM?


The financial institution that owns and operates the ATM may charge a fee to the person withdrawing cash; they must disclose that fee for each ATM transaction before that transaction is completed. You can decide to accept the fee and continue the transaction, or cancel the transaction. The ATM fee imposed by the bank that owns the ATM is different from the ATM fee listed in your cardholder agreement.

Is it safe to use my card to withdraw cash?


Yes. Your card can only be used to withdraw cash by entering your unique Personal Identification number (PIN).

Return to Top

May I let someone else use my card?


Absolutely not. Keep your card and the card account number under your control at all times. Do not tell anyone your PIN or write your PIN on the back of your card.

Can I add money to my card other than money from my pay?


Generally only money from your employer may be added to your card. This would include your regular pay as well as things like overtime and bonuses. In the future you will be able to load funds via POS devices in select locations.
