### 4/5 — Password requirement?!?!?!

*2026-08-02, version 2.2.02*

A bit cryptic but eventually, I figured this out.

### 3/5 — Text messages

*2026-07-25, version 2.1.99*

I don’t receive text messages about my card when they put money in it no more. I’ve been trying to fix it but they say y’all can’t do it anything about it ?

### 3/5 — Help

*2026-07-22, version 2.1.98*

When I try activating my card it says that my account is currently blocked and that’s the card or my information is correct.

### 2/5 — Banned for setting up new card

*2026-06-23, version 2.1.97*

My past card was lost/stolen so I bought a new card by calling the customer support. When my new card came in it banned my whole account while I tried to set it up. Now I have to wait an extra two days so they can “review my account”. I typed in the proxy # and all the right info it asked and the app told me it was wrong and blocked me.

### 1/5 — Money is trapped

*2026-06-15, version 2.1.97*

I have over $4,000 that’s completely trapped in my dash account, they took away the option to transfer it to an outside bank and when you call customer service, they are zero help, I never received a physical card and they also took away the digital card that was on my app, even the WesternUnion money transfer link on the app doesn’t work. I have no way to access my money that I need for gas and food

### 4/5 — Updated review

*2026-06-11, version 2.1.97*

Good app for what it is.

### 1/5 — New user unable to create account

*2026-05-28, version 2.1.96*

I’ve called multiple times and customer service always says tech team is working at it, try again in 24 hours. After reading many recent reviews, looks like this is an ongoing problem for others for months now! How can I get my money?! Insane!

### 2/5 — No send it button

*2026-05-26, version 2.1.96*

The app works well when there is no updates removing the option to transfer funds to external accounts.

### 3/5 — Bring back sendit!!

*2026-05-24, version 2.1.96*

I appreciate the app and the simplicity of the call in if I have questions about my card but it was soooo nice having the sendit to transfer funds between dash and my bank please bring it back!

### 1/5 — Ya no se puede hacer transferencia bancaria

*2026-05-23, version 2.1.96*

Ya no se puede hacer transferencia bancaria así que cambiaré a banco personal

### 1/5 — not working

*2026-05-22, version 2.1.96*

The website isn't working for transfers, and the amount in my savings account isn't showing up. It's been like this for a week now, and they haven't given any answers

### 1/5 — transferring money to bank

*2026-05-22, version 2.1.96*

i updated the app and the transfer button is completely gone. i need this to pay my bills. i’m so sick of this nonsense.

### 1/5 — No transfer funds option

*2026-05-22, version 2.1.96*

No option to transfer funds to another account now.

### 1/5 — Transfer money

*2026-05-22, version 2.1.96*

I’m giving it one star because, for several days now, it has been telling me there is an error with my account. And now that the issue seems to be resolved, it no longer gives me the option to send money to my personal account—nor the option to send funds to my savings account, where I had money stored that I can no longer access because the transfer option is missing.

### 1/5 — Horrible app /customer service

*2026-05-21, version 2.1.96*

If you’re job gives this as a pay card do NOT take it. The app constantly has problems and won’t let me see or use my money. Customer service is useless doesn’t help at all.

### 1/5 — Transfer problem

*2026-05-21, version 2.1.96*

The fact that the new update doesn’t even have the transfer it’s super trash, like I would have to take out the money in the atm just to transfer everything in my bank account smh

### 1/5 — Disparate

*2026-05-20, version 2.1.96*

he option to send money isn’t enabled they need to fix that nonsense

### 1/5 — Terrible support and can’t log in

*2026-05-20, version 2.1.96*

Just like the headline states. Also 20 minutes to replace a card is UNACCEPTABLE!

### 1/5 — Send It Not Working.

*2026-05-13, version 2.1.95*

I click the Send It tab and get the rotating circle saying “Checking Terms and Conditions ….”

### 1/5 — Locked out

### 1/5 — 1 star.

The customer service is genuinely horrible, you can tell that there's so many problems and not enough helpers, my money has been on hold since last week and I haven't been able to add my card to the app. They say there's a lot of tickets but I've been waiting for over a week on these things. Y'all need to step it up.

if your
job offers this card as a pay card do NOT take it.
the app constantly has issues, I cannot even log in or see my money. don’t waste your time. and also horrible customer service.

### 1/5 — Garbage card, company, and customer service

*2026-07-22, version 2.1.98*

Imma leave it short. Doesn’t work on many sites online where a regular card works just fine. Cant withdraw from some atms. Doesn’t allow you to spend your OWN money however YOU want to. Customer service is trained to say thank you and nice things instead of solving the problem. Garbage

### 1/5 — I HATE DASHCARD

*2026-07-18, version 2.1.98*

I feel like my school and SYEP Doesn’t know that I couldn’t activate my dash card me and my mom tried multiple times but it keep saying my birth date is incorrect and when I sign it to the app and online it’s not accepting my password or sending me a link in my email it’s like IM never going to check my money or buy anything because of this stupid card and the stupid company

### 1/5 — Customer Service Experience

*2026-06-23, version 2.1.98*

If you try contacting their customer service team, they will not necessarily address the issues you may be facing. They tend to go off a script and do not have exact solutions to your problems regarding the app or card. If they can’t help you based off of their script they will push it forward to their other support team, where your issue will never be resolved and be forgotten. 

I’ve been contacting their support for the past month with the same issue and resulting to the same solution. It eventually gets to a point where contacting customer service becomes pointless and a waste of your time.

### 5/5 — Good

*2026-05-17, version 2.1.95*

Thanks

### 5/5 — Good app, BUT…

*2026-04-24, version 2.1.93*

It works, and it tells you what your balance is, let’s that’s all it does. It does nothing else.

OK, I was a little bit unfair because I was reading through these reviews and they are mostly negative. And one of the things that concerns me was that several people had said that they could not use this card to pay bills online or pay down balances for other credit accounts. Which might be true in the cases of those credit accounts which only accept payment from a bank source. For example, my PayPal world credit card cannot be paid from anywhere but my bank. But fortunately my Affirm accounts can be paid using debit or credit cards, which is a good way to get the balances down, not that bringing the balance down on Affirm or Klarna will actually improve your credit rating, it won’t. But, it will be one less payment to make next month. And that’s what our goal is. So I was disappointed to read that some people had not been able to make important payments with this card.

One of the main things that might confuse people is that there is no name on the card and when you are entering any card into a payment method, it has to be the exact name registered on your card. Now, in my case, I had just gotten this card assigned, so I knew that they used only my first and last name without the middle initial, which is normally the way that they do it with other credit cards. In fact, some of them insist that you provide your middle name or maiden name. So I knew I had entered the proper information into the card entry window.  And face it, all of the information we need is right there on the card, the expiration date, the card number, the CVV. It’s all there and that’s all that they need. So my card was added properly, and my payment was accepted immediately. And THIS is what I appreciate. This card became 10 times more useful immediately, however:

Cons…

No way to set up transfers. No push notifications. The app, the iOS app, does not have all of the controls available to provide push notifications, it does not even show up under notifications under settings. Needs a whole lot more functionality.

And, the charges when you use anything but the app to check your balances. Maybe this is an incentive to not use my local bank, but, I needed to see if I had set my pin correctly. And that cost me $.50.

Unfortunately, you can’t bring this card to your bank and have them transfer the funds into your bank account like you can with other incentive cards. It declined a $20 withdrawal to be used as a $20 deposit into my checking account. Maybe the teller did not have my credentials but she probably tried to do it a different way. They basically use the card to provide a cash advance into my checking account. It works well with the other incentive cards that I use, but even the head teller had trouble setting up the cash advance, and the teller at a different branch could not do it at all.

Other irritations…

This is supposed to be a Visa card, where is the chip? There is no chip. Even my SNAP card has a chip which even works at certain stores. Also, if cards are lost and stolen several people claimed that they charge you for a new card. I don’t know about anybody else, but there’s a possibility that my card will not ever be reloaded. So I don’t really want charges on my card that I did not authorize, even for replacing the card. That should be a gratis feature from Dash.

But the main thing about this system, this app, this card, which in many cases is given to people in lieu of a paycheck, is very limited in the functions that you can accomplish. It can only be used in very simple ways. And I count myself fortunate that I was able to use it on at least one of my online payments.

I had added, Please don’t respond to this review, this app simply sucks.. but where the app sucks, the card has potential…

Thank you.

### 5/5 — Fácil de usar y de aprender a usarla  de verda muy buena calidad

*2026-04-09, version 2.1.92*

Todas las estrellas  que  se puedan  aser pagos usarla para las compras fácil muy fácil de aprender

### 5/5 — Takes away options without notice

*2026-01-31, version 2.1.5*

So we have this card because we adopted kids and this is what they gave us. It’s always worked fine until recently. They took away the option to transfer funds which is horrible because we use those funds for the kids stuff. No notice that it was stopping. When we call to ask about it; they can’t find our access code and ask us to call children adoption place which is closed till Monday. Just horrible. Use to be a lot better before. The transfer funds is a big mistake and i hope they fix it.
