| Frequently Asked Questions
What is an Ezycash Card? What are some of the ways to use the Ezycash Card? Who can apply for an Ezycash Card? Do I need a good credit record to get a Ezycash Card? There is one exception: companies that make small loans may use an Ezycash Card as a more secure and convenient way to provide you with cash. In this case a credit check may be required, but it is a credit check for the loan, not the Ezycash Card. How secure is my money with Ezycash Card? When it comes to the question of security, the term "stored value" may be a little misleading. The money is not actually stored on the card. It is stored on our secure computers and can only be accessed if you provide your PIN when you use your Ezycash Card at an ATM. Your PIN is not stored anywhere on your Ezycash Card, not even on the magnetic stripe. The information on the stripe merely identifies you so that our systems can compare the PIN that you enter to the one that is stored in our secure computers. That way, a thief who steals your Ezycash Card cannot learn your PIN even with a magnetic card reader. Because your PIN is so critical to the security of your card, it is important that you protect it. Be sure that nobody is looking over your shoulder when you enter your PIN. Even if you aren't aware of anyone watching you, it is still a good idea to shield the keys of the ATM with your other hand when you enter your PIN. How is an Ezycash Card better than cash? 1. Ezycash Cards are more secure than cash. If cash is lost or stolen it is usually gone for ever. If your Ezycash Card is lost or stolen, it can be replaced. No one can get at your money unless they also have your PIN. We recommend that you do not write down your PIN or, if you do write it down, never keep it in the same place as your card. 2. An Ezycash Card is a global money and debit card. When you use cash, you usually have to exchange your money for local currency when you travel out of the country, which can be a costly and time-consuming inconvenience. With an Ezycash Card, you can use your card at any worldwide ATM. All cash withdrawals are automatically in the local currency. 3. You can safely send an Ezycash Card in the mail. In the past, if you wanted to send money to friends or relatives across the country or overseas the only alternative was expensive wire services. Now, you can easily send an Ezycash Card to them in the mail. It is secure because no one can access the cash on the Ezycash Card unless they also have the PIN. Never send a card and its PIN at the same time. Is Ezycash Card better than using a cheque? 1. Cash stored on an Ezycash Card is available immediately. For example, if you send a cheque as a gift to a relative, the recipient's bank usually puts the money on hold for at least a few days, and often a few weeks, until the cheque clears. The wait can be even longer when sending money overseas. With an Ezycash Card, you can tell the recipient the PIN over the phone, and when the Ezycash Card arrives, the recipient can use it immediately at an ATM. 2. Ezycash Cards can be refilled quickly and easily. When you use a cheque to send gifts or transfer money, the recipient has to wait for the cheque to arrive and the bank to clear it. With an Ezycash Card you just add more cash to the same card. The recipient then has immediate access to the cash. After the Ezycash Card arrives they will never have to wait again. How is an Ezycash Card better than using a bank card? 2. Ezycash Cards are more secure. Because an Ezycash Card is not tied to your bank account, the most that a thief can steal is the money that remains on your Ezycash Card. With a bank card, they may be able to drain your entire account. Where can I get an Ezycash Card? How many cards may I register under my name? Can I use my Ezycash Card like a credit card before I add money to the card? How do I add money to my Ezycash Card? Is my money protected if my Ezycash Card is lost or stolen? If I give an Ezycash Card as a gift, can the recipient replace it if it is lost or stolen? What happens if I forget my Personal Identification Number (PIN)? I want to use an Ezycash Card to transfer money to relatives in another country. Can I have a second account, send the Ezycash Card to my relatives and simply transfer from card to card? Is it less expensive to transfer money from card to card than using a traditional wire transfer service? I use an Ezycash Card to transfer money to relatives. When I want to send more money to them, can I add money to the same Ezycash Card or do I have to get a new card? Are there any transaction fees? What name will be printed on the Ezycash Card? Does the Ezycash Card expire? Are there any withdrawal limits? Are there any loading limits? How is the currency exchange rate calculated when the Ezycash Card is used outside of my country? Can I find out how much money is in my Ezycash Card account? How much does it cost to get an Ezycash Card? Are there any limits on how much money I can store on my Ezycash Card? Is there someone who I can talk to if I am having a problem? Why should I trust Ezycash Card? |
