The plan that is best for you will depend on how often you use the card, whether you will make frequent ATM withdrawals, and if you plan to get direct deposits to the account.
There is a minimum start-up fee of $3.95 for a basic RushCard, no matter which plan you choose. If you would like to carry the Black Diamond, Pink Diamond, Purple Diamond or DYNASTY card you will pay a one-time card fee of $9.95. The KLS and BabyPhat cards carry a $14.95 start-up fee.
You must be at least 13 years old to apply for a RushCard. However, if you are under the age of 18 your parent or guardian must fill out a consent form located here before you can get this card.
All prepaid card applications require you to submit your Social Security number because of government regulations. You must also provide your birthdate, contact information, and possibly a driver’s license or other identification. If you do not feel comfortable providing this information online, you may call the RushCard customer service line at 866-RUSHCARD (866-787-4227) for assistance.
Your RushCard application will be approved and processed almost immediately once you have furnished accurate and complete information. It will take from 7 to 10 business days for your card to arrive in the mail. Your personalized card is generally mailed the same day your application is approved.

Yes, you can – and you will get it 2 to 4 weeks faster than you would by mail. All you need to do to set up the direct deposit of your tax refund to the RushCard, is your bank routing number, account number and account type.
When you set up direct deposit to the RushCard instead of a traditional bank account you will use the RushCard routing number (021409169) and your Deposit ID, a 16-digit number that stands in for a bank account number and is located on the front of your card.

You can change your plan at any time and at no charge, to ensure you have the best plan to meet your needs. The Pick Your Plan Feature allows you to switch plans as often as you like. However, the change will not go into effect immediately. The change will be effective on the first day of the following month.
