So what does all this mean?
Cash your paycheck: If you cash your paycheck at a bank, you may be charged a fee for cashing your check if you do not have an account there. The fee varies; on average it is around $20. If you sign up for Direct Deposit with the Jump Card, not only is your deposit free, but after your third Direct Deposit, we will give you 2,500 points!
Paying Your Monthly Bills / Money Manager: If you don't have a bank account, you will have to pay fees for a Money Order and the cost of a stamp. If you pay six bills each month on average your costs will be close to $9. With the Jump Card, paying your bills is FREE! This includes paper checks through bill pay. Unlike our competitors, we do not charge for bills paid to places not in our electronic database. In addition to having completely free bill pay, we also offer a money manager tool that will help track your spending, so you can see just how much you are spend in a variety of user-driven categories.
Rewards Earned: Each time you use your Jump Card Visa® Prepaid Card for a Visa signature purchase, you will earn 1 point per $1 spent!
Monthly Fee: Some prepaid cards will charge you for each purchase you make. Instead of monitoring the number of transactions on your account, we charge you one small, flat-rate fee each month. At $8 per month, we are more cost effective than most of our competitors!
ATM Fees: Each time you use your Jump Card at an automated teller machine, you will be charged $1.50. That's $.50 less than many other prepaid cards. Note: Some banks may charge an additional fee for use of their ATM.
Bringing it all together: When you compare the costs of the Jump Card to going to a bank (without a bank account) and other prepaid cards, it is clear that the Jump Card is a cost effective way for you to use in all your financial needs. With our first-class money manager tool, you will be able to see where you are spending your money. And because the Jump Card is a prepaid card, you never have to worry about expensive overdraft fees. It is clear to see - using your Jump Card Visa® Prepaid Card is convenient, easy and hey, it just makes sense!
