JetPay Corporation, a leading provider of debit and credit card processing, payroll and prepaid card services, announced that it has added Ingo Money as a new and convenient funding method to its Money Access Card (MAC) Prepaid Visa. Consumers download the Ingo Money mobile app directly to their Android or iPhone device. Following enrollment, they can then load approved checks directly onto their MAC card. MAC is the newest product line from JetPay. This versatile card can be used to directly deposit all or part of a pay check or government check, deposit cash through Green Dot, load funds from a checking account, and now deposit an approved check directly from a smartphone with Ingo Money.
MAC is one of the most versatile prepaid cards on the market today. Currently introduced in a limited geographic region in the mid-Atlantic states, MAC will soon be available nationwide. The card has some of the lowest fees of any prepaid card. With no activation fees and low usage fees, MAC more than pays for itself in eliminating high check-cashing, money order and overdraft fees. MAC is perfect for funding a college student, saving for special projects, or just having a safe method of paying for cash items. With MAC, there is no credit check. The consumer goes to www.jetpaycard.com, signs up, and the card will arrive a few days later in the mail. Then activate MAC, load it with cash in one or all of 5 different ways, and start using it to pay bills, go to lunch or pay for college classes. MAC can be used like a checking account without checks — anywhere that accepts Visa, including on the Web.
Ingo Money provides MAC with even more convenience, since anyone with a smartphone can download the free app from the app store and follow the prompts to enroll in the Ingo Money service. Following registration, a consumer takes a picture of a check and submits it to Ingo Money for approval. Funds from approved checks are loaded directly to MAC and are available to spend immediately without risk of reversal. Funds can be made available in minutes for a fee or in 10 days at no charge. The consumer chooses the timing for each check transaction. As Ingo says, it’s as easy as “download, enroll, click and go.”
MAC representative Patricia DiSanto, senior vice president and product development manager for MAC, had this to say about adding Ingo Money: “With the convenience of Ingo Money, MAC is now ready to be introduced to consumers from coast-to-coast. The ease of loading money onto MAC with Ingo makes it a valuable financial tool for consumers. It is JetPay’s goal to provide the most flexible prepaid card at the lowest possible price to consumers, and MAC with Ingo Money meets that goal.”
“Ingo Money is pleased to partner with JetPay and its MAC service,” said Matthew Frye, executive vice president, Ingo Money. “We share JetPay’s goal of making it easier for consumers to access their money to meet their financial obligations and day-to-day purchase and payment needs. With Ingo Money, most check types can be submitted and approved for funding to MAC, providing consumers with a convenient and reliable method for accessing their check funds right on their card.”
