KINGSTON – While many people have received their Economic Impact Payments directly deposited electronically to their bank accounts, others are receiving their benefits in a debit card.
The payment card is sponsored by the Treasury Department’s Bureau of the Fiscal Service, managed by Money Network Financial, LLC and issued by Treasury’s financial agent, MetaBank, N.A.
The Ulster County District Attorney’s Office of Consumer Affairs said if you received an Economic Impact Card, it will arrive in a plain envelope from “Money Network Cardholder Services.”
The Visa name will appear on the front of the card; the back has the name of the issuing bank, MetaBank, N.A.
Information included with the card will explain that the card is your Economic Impact Payment Card. For more information, see www.EIPcard.com for more information.
