No. MoneyPak cannot reload temporary cards. Temporary cards are cards that have not been registered with the prepaid card provider (or where registration was attempted, but the card provider was unable to verify the customer’s identity) or do not have a personalized name on the front. If you have a new prepaid card without your name on it, you must register it on your prepaid card provider’s website. Once you get the personalized card in the mail (usually within two weeks) and activate it, your personalized prepaid card will then be ready to accept MoneyPak reloads as long as it is from a participating prepaid card provider.

MoneyPak is a convenient way for friends and family members to deposit money to eligible prepaid and bank debit cards. Just purchase a MoneyPak at a store near you and visit MoneyPak.com to reload a card. Send cash to almost anyone's prepaid or bank debit card.

Direct deposit is a FREE and easy way to receive your tax refund faster than a paper check! Avoid waiting by the mailbox, making extra trips, and paying extra fees just so you can cash or deposit your tax refund. Best of all, receiving your tax refund through direct deposit means the money is automatically deposited to your account so that you can access and use the funds from your refund.

With the exception of certain federal government benefit payments, or your employer or payroll department's restrictions, you can choose to have as much or as little of your paycheck or benefits payment deposited to your Walmart MoneyCard as you’d like. The choice is completely yours, and you can cancel or change the amount of your direct deposit at any time.

If you enroll in direct deposit for Social Security, Supplemental Security Income, Veterans Benefits, or Federal Civil Service, the entire amount of your benefit payment must be deposited to your Walmart MoneyCard. You can cancel the direct deposit of your federal government benefits at any time, but you cannot change the amount of your federal benefits direct deposit.

To cancel your direct deposit, you must contact your employer or the payor of your benefits. They will tell you how to cancel the service. Cancelling direct deposit will in no way impact the use of your Walmart MoneyCard.

Find info on how to cancel direct deposit of your federal benefits here – or – contact the agency that administers your benefit.

• Social Security and Supplemental Security Income:
  Contact the Social Security Administration at (800) 772-1213 or visit the Social Security website
• Veterans Benefits:
  Contact the Department of Veterans Affairs at (877) 838-2778 or visit the US Department of Veterans Affairs website.
• Federal Civil Service:
  Contact the Once of Personnel Management / Civil Service at (888) 767-6738 or visit the Office of Personnel Management website.

No, others cannot direct their refund to your card or account.

Get more details from the IRS about tax refunds here.

Yes. If you decide you no longer want direct deposit, contact your payor or employer and they’ll tell you how to cancel the service. Canceling direct deposit will in no way impact the use of your Walmart MoneyCard.

No. Early access to your direct deposit money is automatically a potential benefit of your Walmart MoneyCard if you are signed up for direct deposit. Early availability depends on timing of payor’s payment instructions and fraud prevention restrictions may apply. As such, the availability or timing of early direct deposit may vary from pay period to pay period. Make sure the name and social security number on file with your employer or benefits provider matches what’s on your Walmart MoneyCard account exactly. We will not be able to deposit your payment if we are unable to match recipients.

Payroll, government benefits and child support are the only deposits that qualify for early access to your money.

When you set up direct deposit, you may be eligible to receive your pay up to 2 days earlier and government benefits up to 4 days before benefits day (subject to deposit verification and depending on your payment provider’s process and timing).

Some employers and benefits providers send payment instructions ahead of the actual payday. If they do, we’ll credit the amount to your card when we receive payment instructions (instead of waiting for the actual payday) so you can enjoy your money sooner. However, it’s important to note that if and how early your deposit can be posted to your account is completely dependent on when the employer or benefits provider sends us the payment instructions.

Plus, your monthly account fee will be waived when you receive direct deposits of payroll or government benefits of $500 or more in the previous monthly statement period. Otherwise, it’s $5.94 per month.

We deposit your payroll or government benefits to your Walmart MoneyCard account, including:

Social Security benefits
SSI (Supplemental Security Income)
Pension payments
Railroad Retirement Benefits (RRB)
Defense Finance and Accounting Service (DFAS) payments
State unemployment benefits
Government Disability Benefits (SSDI or Workers' Compensation)
Veterans' benefits

You can check for your direct deposit a few ways:

1. Sign up for direct deposit alerts to receive an email or text message any time a direct deposit posts to your account.
2. Review your Transaction History online to check for your deposit.
3. Call our automated Walmart MoneyCard Support Line to hear your most recent direct deposit amount and date.

Note: Your payor will usually provide a payment stub or notice to let you know the amount of the payment deposited to your account.

We have no additional information other than what is provided in your account, in alerts, or on the automated phone system.

The exact time of day that your paycheck or benefit payment is deposited onto your card will usually vary from payday to payday. If you haven’t received a direct deposit that you are expecting, it’s because we haven’t received the payment instructions from your employer or benefits provider.

If you are concerned about the status of your direct deposit, please follow these steps:

1. Contact your employer to verify that the direct deposit was sent. If so, ask them for the TRACE # of your direct deposit transaction.
2. Once you have the TRACE #, call Walmart MoneyCard Customer Support toll-free at (866) 871-2416 and we will investigate the transaction.

NOTE: If you recently reported your card lost or stolen, please be sure to tell the Walmart MoneyCard Customer Support Specialist when you call.

If you enrolled in direct deposit for federal benefits, you should contact the agency that administers your benefit.

• Social Security and Supplemental Security Income:
  Check the calendar of Social Security Payments to see when your payment should arrive.
  

For federal government benefits, visit https://godirect.gov/gpw/contactAgency/ and call the appropriate Agency number. The phone numbers are not Walmart MoneyCard phone numbers but belong to the various government agencies as listed. Contact your relevant state paying agency to enroll in direct deposit for your state benefits.

Setting up direct deposit is easy! Just follow these simple steps:

1. Ask your payroll or benefits office if they offer direct deposit.
2. If they do, get your direct deposit account number and bank routing number by logging into your account or by texting DD to 37267. We don’t charge customers to receive a text message, but your carrier data and message rates still apply.
3. Provide your direct deposit account number and bank routing number to your payroll or benefits office.
4. For federal government benefits, enroll by visiting https://godirect.gov/gpw/contactAgency/ and calling the appropriate Agency number. The phone numbers are not Green Dot phone numbers but belong to the various government agencies as listed. Contact your relevant state paying agency to enroll in direct deposit for your state benefits.
5. Make sure the name on file with your employer or benefits provider matches the name on your account.

TIP: Ask your payroll, how long it’ll take them to set up your direct deposit. If it takes longer than expected to receive your first direct deposit on your card, check back with your payroll or benefits office. Walmart MoneyCard does not have any information about your enrollment status. Early direct deposit depends on deposit verification.

Many times, your employer or benefits provider will notify our bank of your incoming deposit in advance of your actual pay day. If they do, we will credit your pay or benefits to your card when they give us that advance notice instead of waiting for pay day. However, the exact time of day that your paycheck or benefit payment is deposited onto your card will usually vary from payday to payday because employers and benefits providers often send payment instructions at different times from pay period to pay period. If you don’t get it as early as you did the previous pay period, it doesn’t mean there’s something wrong or that we’re holding on to it. It just means we haven’t received it yet.
If you log in to your account and set up the direct deposit Account Alert, we’ll automatically notify you any time a direct deposit is received. Carrier message and data rates apply.

We are unable to accept the following types of checks for mobile check deposit using the Green Dot app.
