A Green Dot card is the perfect solution if you’re looking for a debit card without opening a bank account. It makes for a great gift and it can be a convenient way to pay for things without keeping cash on hand.
As a retailer of Green Dot’s Visa prepaid debit cards, West Suburban Currency Exchanges is your go-to source for Green Dot questions. We’re happy to set you up with a new Green Dot card and help you check your balance.
Let’s discuss how to purchase a Green Dot card, how to access your account, and how to check your existing balance.
Getting Your Green Dot Card Set Up
After purchasing your Green Dot card from one of our many West Suburban Currency Exchanges locations, give the cashier the amount of cash you’d like loaded onto the card. Once the cashier swipes it, your debit card is ready to use!
While the card itself is labeled as a debit card, it’s virtually used as cash, meaning there are no overdraft fees. You’ll be able to use it at almost any business around the country.
When it comes to reloading your Green Dot card, you have several options to do so. You can set up a Green Dot direct deposit for your paycheck or government benefits. You can also make an online transfer from another bank account to your Green Dot account. Finally, you can easily deposit cash into your Green Dot account at hundreds of thousands of retailers nationwide, including West Suburban Currency Exchanges.
Accessing Your Green Dot Account
To access your Green Dot account, start by creating an account on the Green Dot website or Green Dot App. You’ll need your 16-digit card number, the expiration date, and the CV code. These can all be found on your prepaid debit card.
If you already have an account, log in on the Green Dot website or app. From here, you’ll be able to view your account information, balance, and transaction history.
If you’ve lost the physical card or you don’t remember your password, you’ll need to follow Green Dot’s account recovery process to gain access to your account.
