Is a MoneyPak safe to use?
A MoneyPak is safe to use as long as you remember to treat your MoneyPak like cash. Be careful with your MoneyPak and only give the MoneyPak number to a person you know personally and trust. NO legitimate company or government agency will EVER ask you for a MoneyPak number.
Once you load cash to a MoneyPak, the MoneyPak number on the back of the package is the same as cash. If you lose the MoneyPak or give the MoneyPak number to the wrong person and the MoneyPak is used, Green Dot cannot refund your money.

Can a MoneyPak be used to reload a temporary prepaid card without a name embossed on it?
MoneyPak cannot be used to reload temporary prepaid cards, which are prepaid cards that have not been registered with the card provider (or where registration was attempted, but the prepaid card provider was unable to verify the cardholder’s identity). Temporary prepaid cards do not have the cardholder’s name embossed on the front of the card.
If you have a new prepaid card without your name on it, you must register it with your prepaid card provider in order to reload your prepaid card with a MoneyPak. Once you get the personalized prepaid 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 the card is issued by a participating prepaid card provider.

How long until my MoneyPak funds are loaded to my card?
After purchase, there is up to a 60-minute delay before your MoneyPak is ready to use. After that, you’re ready to deposit the funds on your MoneyPak to an eligible prepaid or bank debit card. If depositing funds to a prepaid card, the transfer should be instant or near-instant. If depositing funds to a bank debit card, the load time will depend on when your bank posts deposits. In most cases, the funds are available right away.

To verify whether the money has been transferred successfully, check the transaction history for the prepaid or bank debit card that was loaded.
Can I use a MoneyPak to add money to a PayPal account?

What can I do to keep from being scammed?

Here are two easy tips for avoiding scams:
Here are two easy tips for avoiding scams:
- Only give your MoneyPak number to someone you know, trust, and have met face-to-face.
- Remember that NO legitimate company or government agency will EVER ask you for a MoneyPak number.
What should I do if I get a call or email that I think may be a scam?
Scammers can be extremely convincing and will play on your fears and sympathies to try to get you to cooperate. Don’t let them scare or bully you.
If you get a call from a business requesting payment via MoneyPak, hang up. NO legitimate company or government agency will EVER ask you for a MoneyPak number. If you think you may really owe money, call the business directly or go to their website.
If you get a call from a person you don’t know personally saying they’re a relative needing money, hang up. Call someone else in your family close to that person to see if they really need help.
If you get an email that looks suspicious, call or email the sender directly. Do not reply to the email or call any numbers provided in the email.

Additionally, some users may be asked to upload a photo ID so that we can verify their identity.

How does mobile phone number verification work?
We will send a text message to your mobile device and you must reply “yes” to complete your verification. If you don’t receive the text, you can request another one to complete the process. Carrier message and data rates apply.

I received an error message that I’ve hit a limit.
This error means you’ve reached at least one limit for depositing funds. The limit may be a MoneyPak limit or may be a limit specific to your card. You can either wait some time and try depositing to the same card again or try depositing to a different card.
There are separate limits for each card you use with MoneyPak, and for your MoneyPak profile. Whichever limit you hit first will apply to the deposit you are attempting to make.
The amount you can deposit using MoneyPak may also be lower if your prepaid or bank debit card provider has limits on the amount they allow you to deposit to your card.

After purchase, there is a 30-60 minute delay before a MoneyPak is ready to use. After the 30-60 minutes are up, you can use your MoneyPak to add funds to an eligible prepaid card or bank debit card.
I received a message that my request is “In Progress.”
It's unlikely, but sometimes an issue may delay the deposit funds from a MoneyPak to your prepaid or bank debit card. When this happens, we will keep trying to deposit the MoneyPak funds and will send you an email as soon as we are able to complete the request.
If the request is successfully completed, then you don't need to do anything. If the request fails, then you will need to go back to MoneyPak.com and resubmit your request to use the MoneyPak.
I was asked to upload a photo ID. How does the process work?
To keep your funds safe and help prevent fraud, we may require you to provide additional identity information and documents before you can use a MoneyPak. In those instances, you may be asked to upload a photo ID.

I’m having trouble creating a second MoneyPak secure login.
Each customer may only have one secure login. However, you can use the same secure login to make deposits to multiple cards with different MoneyPaks.
I forgot my login/password information
If you can’t remember your login information, click “TROUBLE WITH LOGIN” at the bottom of the login page. Once you fill out and submit the form, check the email you used when you created your login. You’ll receive an email with a link to reset your password.
My MoneyPak applied successfully, but I don’t see the funds in my account
Although most deposits made with MoneyPaks to a card transfer almost instantly, the timing for some bank debit cards can vary depending on the time it takes the bank that issued your card to post the deposit. It can also take a few minutes for new transactions to show up in the transaction list for some banks. Wait a few minutes and look again. If you still don’t see your funds, contact the bank that issued your card. If your bank doesn’t have a record of the transfer, complete our help form and we will do our best to assist you with your issue.
I’ve tried everything and my MoneyPak is still not working. Can I request a refund?
If your MoneyPak has not been used, you can submit a refund request by filling out this form. Refund checks typically arrive in the mail 1-2 weeks after your refund request is submitted with valid documentation (most commonly a receipt). The MoneyPak purchase fee will not be refunded.
To access your funds more quickly, load them to any prepaid or bank debit card that accepts MoneyPak loads. See if your card is eligible.
If you don’t have a prepaid or bank debit card that accepts MoneyPak loads, you can apply for a Green Dot card online for free. Your card will arrive in 1-2 weeks.
