Prepaid Card

Fast access to money. Card-carrying convenience. Acceptance across the country and around the world. Now you know why the ESL Visa^® Prepaid Card is a great way to carry money without carrying cash.

• Use it around the world. With the ESL Visa Prepaid Card, you can make purchases and ATM withdrawals anywhere Visa is accepted.
• Eliminate worries about overdraft fees and interest charges. If there’s not enough money available on your card, you won’t be able to make that purchase or withdrawal.
• Access up to $2,500 per day, depending on your balance. You can also make ATM withdrawals or purchases with your PIN up to $600 per day, depending on your balance.
• Rest easy with the Visa Zero Liability Policy.* Lock in protection from fraudulent use with help from Visa.
• Share your balance. Get up to three additional personalized cards so others can access the available card balance. (Please remember that the maximum balance is $10,000.)
• Manage your money easily by phone or online. Track your transactions and card balance simply by calling 866.760.3156. You can also manage your money online at Access My Account.
• Reload your card whenever you want. Just visit any ESL branch, use Direct Deposit, visit Access My Account online, or call 866.760.3156.
