"We saw a need to offer a secure, value-add payment option that
gives our customers the opportunity to confidently make digital
payments and access benefits that are commonly offered with
traditional bank cards," said Peter
Ohser, President of payment services. "We live in a
world where consumers benefit from payment cards by earning points
and loyalty rewards, so we invested in creating our own prepaid
card so that we can pass cost-savings onto our customers and
provide a tool that can improve financial stability and reduce
the possibility of falling into credit debt."

financial rewards with money transfer transactions for JPay
