Have questions about this service? Here are a few Frequently Asked Questions...
We provide 24-hour toll-free
support. Immediately report any problems or a lost or stolen card by calling
866-760-3156. A replacement card can be issued and any available balance
transferred to a new card, less applicable fees that will be deducted from the
card's available balance. Replacement cards are generally received in 7-10
business days. Emergency card replacement can also be requested with guaranteed
delivery within the next business day, or sooner in some cases. See the Terms
& Conditions for fees that apply to lost or stolen cards and emergency card
replacement. As long as the lost or stolen card is reported immediately, you
will not be responsible for any unauthorized merchant charges. If traveling
internationally or far from home, a secondary card should be considered. That
way, if the primary card is lost or stolen, the secondary card can immediately
be used to access the funds without having to wait for a replacement card.
You can check your balance at
this website,
by calling your local branch, or by calling customer support at 866-760-3156.
Since a merchant may not be able to tell how much money is on the card, keeping
track of your balance is a sure way to know how much you have to spend.
Your receipt will reflect the
local currency. It is always good to plan ahead and have a general idea of what
the local exchange rates are before you travel. This helps you to understand
what goods and services are actually costing you.
The exchange rate is
determined by the rate of exchange on the date of purchase. Using your Prepaid
Card at an ATM can be less expensive than using a currency exchange to get
foreign currency.
Visit the ATM locator found
at this website or at www.visa.com for participating VISA® ATMs both
domestic and abroad.
Any authorization request
that is greater than the card's available balance will be declined. However,
there can be times when a Visa merchant puts an item through without prior
authorization. If an overdraft occurs, the cardholder will be required to
either reload funds onto the card or make a payment to Cardholder Services to
cover the negative amount.
Possible reasons your initial
load or reload might be declined are: the name/address on file with the
debit/credit card issuer does not match the primary cardholder profile on the
VISA® Prepaid Card website, the debit/credit card expiration date or 3 digit
code listed on the website is incorrect, or the 4 load limit or other
applicable limits have been exceeded. First, verify your funding source
information and the total number of reloads performed to date. If this does not
resolve the issue, call the toll free number on the back of your card to
discuss other limits that may have been exceeded.
If you choose, a new
Personalized Prepaid Card can be ordered from the website, or by going into your
local branch. You can continue to make purchases using your old card until the
balance has been depleted.
Yes, the card can be loaded
up to 4 times for Non-personalized and unlimited times for Personalized. To
reload using the credit or debit card registered during enrollment, primary
cardholders can visit the website, call the number listed on the back of their
card, or visit your local branch. Any applicable fee for reloading via the
website or by phone will be charged to your funding source, along with the
value being added to your card.
Yes, simply pay a portion of
the purchase with the available balance on your prepaid card then request to
pay the balance of the purchase with cash, check, or a credit/debit card.
If a decline occurs, the
card's available balance is probably less than the purchase amount. You may
inform the merchant of the remaining balance on the card and use another form
of payment to pay the difference, subject to the policy of the merchant.
Also, please be aware that
some merchants - for example, restaurants, car rental agencies, salons,
mail-order companies, and cruise lines - preauthorize for an amount slightly
higher than your actual transaction to ensure sufficient funds for tips or incidental
expenses.
This amount is
"held" until the transaction settles to your Prepaid Card. Only the
amount you sign for will ultimately be deducted from your card. Use of the card
at automated fuel dispensers requires that a specific minimum balance be
available on the card, which is determined by the issuer of the prepaid card,
in order to complete the transaction.
For example, the issuer may
require that there is a minimum balance of $75 on the card in order to utilize
the card at an automated fuel dispenser. Again, only the actual amount spent
will ultimately be deducted from the card.
Each merchant location has
its own return policies and will handle the returns in the same manner as any
other VISA® transaction and may take up to 7 business days to be credited to
your Prepaid Card. They may credit your Prepaid Card; provide a cash refund, or
a store credit.
Non-personalized cards are
activated at the time of purchase and the PIN (personal identification number) can
be obtained by calling Cardholder Services. Personalized cards can be activated
by logging into this site and clicking on the Activate Card button or by
calling the customer support number listed on the back of your card. Over the
phone, an assigned PIN will be automatically spoken after your card is
activated and you'll be given the opportunity to select a new PIN if you
choose.
Each card is distributed with
Terms & Conditions (link to “VISA®
Reloadable Prepaid Cards Terms & Conditions” page). This document fully
explains the terms and conditions regarding the use of the card. The cardholder
accepts the terms and conditions by either signing the back of the card, using
the card, or receiving the card by request.
You can order personalized Prepaid Cards directly at this site or stop into a branch and we can order one for you. Non-personalized Prepaid Cards can be purchased at your local branch.
No, Prepaid Cards cannot be
given as a gift. You purchase the Prepaid Card for your own personal use.
A TruStone Prepaid Card can
be purchased by anyone that has a valid debit or credit card registered in his
or her name. The individual purchasing the card is defined as the primary
cardholder. The address listed for the primary cardholder must match the
billing address for the debit/credit card used to purchase the Prepaid Card.
Personalized primary cardholders can order online up to two personalized
secondary cards for family members or companions. When purchasing a secondary
card for a young person with no card experience, be sure to go over all of the
materials that accompany the card.
Purchase transactions are
unlimited, up to the balance remaining on your card. However, for the
protection of our cardholders, there are limits to the number and dollar amount
of reloads, ATM withdrawals and cash advances performed within a certain time
period. To learn more about the current limits, please reference your terms and
conditions.
Your card can be used to make
purchases at millions of VISA® debit locations worldwide and to obtain cash at
any VISA® Interlink, or Plus® ATM worldwide.
It's a reloadable prepaid
Visa card, which means you can spend up to the value placed on the card
anywhere VISA® debit cards are accepted. You can shop in stores, online, over
the phone, and by mail order. You can get cash at VISA®/PLUS ATMs worldwide.
Each time you make a purchase, the amount of that purchase is automatically
deducted from the card.
