¹Early direct deposit availability depends on payor type, timing, payment instructions, and bank fraud prevention measures. As such, early direct deposit availability may vary from pay period to pay period. The name and Social Security number on file with your employer or benefits provider must match your GO2bank account to prevent fraud restrictions on the account.

²See app for free ATM locations. $3 for out-of-network withdrawals, plus any additional fees the ATM owner or bank may charge. Limits apply.

³Opt-in required. Account must be in good standing and chip-enabled debit card activated to opt in. Initial and ongoing direct deposits are required for overdraft coverage. Additional criteria may apply which can affect your eligibility and your overdraft coverage. Overdrafts are paid at our discretion. Overdraft fees may cause your account to be overdrawn by an amount that is greater than your overdraft coverage. A $15 fee may apply to each eligible purchase transaction that brings your account negative. Balance must be brought to at least $0 within 24 hours of authorization of the first transaction that overdraws your account to avoid a fee. Learn more (Overdraft Protection PDF).

⁴Monthly fee waived whenever you receive a payroll or government benefits direct deposit in the previous monthly statement period. Otherwise, $5 per month.

### 1/5 — RUSH CARD ARE THIEVES!!!

*2023-01-18, version 2.23.0*

I’ve been with rush for a while and never had a problem until now… Rush is stealing money they have literally stolen almost $500 from me stating I did not pay for my purchases which was impossible because I couldn’t purchase my products without the money. I paid for my things and rush turned around and took the money again telling me I didn’t pay for the items I purchased. I called to get this settled there customer service operators yelled cursed and hung up on me screaming that I am lying and wouldn’t even let me send them the proof of them taking my money… The same-thing happened to my friend rush is stealing your money…
I would not recommend this card for anyone!!!

### 2/5 — Not satisfied anymore

*2023-01-04, version 2.21.0*

Rush card use to be really good. I’ve been with them since 2012. Back in the day you were able to speak someone and not you really can’t if I’d have any issues. You have to email them and it take forever to get a response back. All these years I’ve never had a issue with uploading checks and now I get getting error that I can’t. Said to call the 877 number but when u call it it says to go online and chat and you do that but u not really charring with anyone, it takes u to emailing them. It’s like NO, I want to speak to someone. This year I think I will be leaving Rush card and switch to someone else.

### 5/5 — No problems, ever.

*2022-12-06, version 2.21.0*

I have had this card for 13 years and have never had a problem. I use it to receive my daughter’s SSI benefits and child support and I’ve never had a problem. I don’t pay purchase fees or anything. I think I pay 6.95 monthly fee. It’s always $4.95 to add cash to the card. I recommend this card to anyone.

### 2/5 — Rush card

*2022-10-28, version 2.20.0*

I have been a customer with RushCard services since 2012 and their customer service has went down drastically since COVID. Now you have to lie about what questions you may have just to speak with a live person if your able to get thru. I am definitely considering switching to another prepaid debit card company

### 1/5 — Horrible Customer Service

*2022-08-01, version 2.20.0*

I use the paused feature on this card andI unpaused it 30 minutes before making a purchase and my card would not unpause I had already gotten a service done and I could literally not leave until my card was solidified which by the way never happened I waited in the store for over an hour trying to figure out how to get my money off the card needless to say I’ve hit up the check for customer service and the Lady told me there was nothing wrong with my card and refused to help any further.I then got out of the chat and try to speak to another rep as the prior one was no help and it forwarded me to an email which annoyed me because I could no longer chat with someoneI barely had enough cash on me to cover the purchase at the time. I was embarrassed and disappointed and no longer use the service because of it

### 1/5 — Original RushCard BabyPhat owner

*2022-04-13, version 2.18.0*

I have been an original BabyPhat card owner since 2003. I have never had issues with my card until the past year. I have had to file several fraud cases. And they keep issuing refunds, but don’t put a hold on the card, and I have NEVER been able to retrieve my balance to just cancel the card entirely. It causes me such anxiety to have to contact them. The app is worthless Because I haven’t been able to log into my account to update my information in the past year. This card was amazing for the almost 2 decades I’ve had it. Except the past year. And I can’t even cancel the card. I wouldn’t recommend it until them enhance their security on another level. Needing the funds for emergencies is not an option. The money won’t be there.

### 3/5 — Logging in

*2022-03-31, version 2.18.0*

I’ve had for a long time but now I’m just irritated like wth it’s giving me hard time logging in to my account . Keeps saying error when everything is right . I have to wait till the next day to solve issues . I’m so literally I’m so irritated when I have to pay bills n can’t access my account .

### 1/5 — Customer for 15 years, had to close account

*2022-03-04, version 2.18.0*

I had been a customer for 15 years and recently RushCard has gotten bad. The prompts basically tell you “don’t call us because we won’t help you”. Every prompt you get says to email them. You email them and they don’t respond. I had my tax refund sent to my card like I’ve been doing for years and they rejected it saying the last names don’t match. Sent all the documents they asked for and they still gave me the run around. They’re rude, lie, and don’t care. Do not use these people.

### 1/5 — Over it

*2022-02-26, version 2.18.0*

I’ve been with Rush for over 10yrs & the past 2 have been the worst. My card keeps getting compromised by someone who claims to be Google. The first few times that it happened, I thought, OK my card got hacked, no biggie. Maybe it’s something I’m doing. I changed all passwords, contacted Google & did everything I was supposed to do.  But then every time I got a new card, it would happen all over again. This can’t be a coincidence. RushCard should investigate. I plan on canceling. I don’t have time to keep being loyal to a company that won’t take the time to ensure its customers aren’t hacked.

### 1/5 — CLOSING MY ACCOUNT!

*2022-02-25, version 2.18.0*

I sent in all of my documents so that they could release my pending deposit. After sending in everything, they sent my deposit back and said that my birthday does NOT match what’s on file. However, I’ve been with Rush Card since 2012 and never was able to change my birthday. I had to send in my I.D, SS Card, 1040 w/ signature and my birthday and they still said that they couldn’t verify that it was me. I received an email this morning stating that they returned my deposit. They won’t let you speak with anyone else and they can barely understand English. After this, I am finally parting ways with RushCard and don’t advise nobody to try them.
