A Green Dot card works like a prepaid gift card. The card can be customized with your name. It allows you to reload money, make debit purchases, or make withdrawals.

If you are expecting your Green Dot card, you can track it until it gets to you. The most convenient way to check your Green Dot card status is by contacting the customer service team on the phone. Alternatively, you may use your tracking number.

When Will You Get Your Green Dot Card?

Usually, you will receive your card within 10 business days. If, after 10 days, you haven't received your card, you may ask for help from the customer service team. They will let you know when to expect your card. Check to ensure that you gave the right address. If you gave the wrong address, correct it and your new card will be sent as soon as possible.

After receiving your card, use the instructions on the card sticker to activate it over the phone or online.
