The AccountNow® Prepaid Visa®, issued by MetaBank, is a stored value card designed for those who may have difficulty in obtaining a standard unsecured credit card.
Although the card does not require a banking account to be opened, it does require payments in advance, which are then used to offset future purchases made with the card.
Advance payments can be funded directly from the cardholder's paycheck and automatically loaded to the card every pay period. The card can also be loaded by wiring money from an established bank account or through MoneyGram® ExpressPayment®.
It is important to note that there are some fees associated with this card that include an account set up fee of $9.95 (waived with direct deposit loads) and a monthly participation fee of $9.95, which amounts to $119.40 annually. There is no additional charge for U.S. purchases. So, in the first year alone, a cardholder can expect to pay a minimum total of $129.35 in fees.
