Description of Your Card
The Card is a prepaid card usable in the United States and outside the United States in permitted countries, wherever prepaid debit cards bearing the applicable payment network brands on your Card are accepted. The Card is not a gift card. The Card is not a device that accesses money in an individual checking or savings account. When you use your Card, you are redeeming the value on the Card and not making a withdrawal from a checking or savings account. Your Card is NOT a bank deposit account, debit card, or a charge card that allows you to make purchases or obtain advances and pay later. The Card will have a printed expiration date and the Card will expire, in accordance with applicable law, on the expiration date. If your Card Account is in good standing and you have available funds on the Card, we will issue you a new Card upon expiration. The Card is our property and is nontransferable. We may revoke or suspend your Card or any features or services of your Card at any time without cause or notice. You must surrender a revoked Card and you may not use an expired or revoked Card. You are required to notify us promptly if the Card is lost or stolen.
Card Registration
CARDS MUST BE REGISTERED PRIOR TO ISSUANCE AND USE. MONTHLY FEE MAY APPLY FOLLOWING REGISTRATION (SEE THE “FEE SCHEDULE”).
Non-Personalized Cards will be registered and activated at the time you receive the Card. We may limit the number of Cards that you may register at our sole discretion. If we are unable to verify your identity, you will not receive a Card.
YOU MUST ACTIVATE YOUR CARD PRIOR TO USING IT.
To activate your Card, you must accept the cardholder agreement and set your Personal Identification Number ("PIN"). We may refuse to activate your Card at our sole discretion. Where applicable, once you activate a Replacement Card, the money on your replaced Instant Issue Card will be automatically transferred to your new Replacement Card, and you will no longer be able to use the replaced Instant Issue Card.
Personal Identification Number (PIN)
You will select a Personal Identification Number (“PIN”) with your Non-Personalized Card.However, you may select a new PIN any time by calling the Customer Service numbers on the back of the card. You should not write or keep your PIN with your Card. Never share your PIN with anyone. When entering your PIN, be sure it cannot be observed by others and do not enter your PIN into any terminal that appears to be modified or suspicious. If you believe that anyone has gained unauthorized access to your PIN, you should advise us immediately following the procedures in the paragraph labeled “Your Liability for Unauthorized Transfers.”
Authorized Card Users
You are responsible for all authorized transactions initiated and fees incurred by use of your Card. If you permit another person to have access to your Card or Card number, we will treat this as if you have authorized such use and you will be liable for all transactions and fees incurred by those persons. You are wholly responsible for the use of each Card according to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.
FDIC Insurance
All funds associated with the Card shall be held in an account with the Issuer for your benefit, with the balance of such funds to be reduced through your use of such funds or through the imposition of fees and other charges in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement. If you have provided us with the personal information, then such funds are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) up to the maximum amount specified by FDIC regulations.
Deposit Network Service Acknowledgment
By utilizing the services, your beneficial funds may be held at Sutton Bank in an omnibus custodial account (“Omnibus Account”). In its ordinary course of business, Sutton Bank may utilize a “Deposit Network Service” to deposit funds from the Omnibus Account into other FDIC insured banks (“Network Banks”). In the event funds from the Omnibus Account are deposited into Network Banks via the Deposit Network Service, Sutton Bank will deliver funds to a custody bank (“Custodian Bank”) participating in the Deposit Network Service. In the event any of your beneficial funds from the Omnibus Account arrive at a Network Bank through a Deposit Network Service, they may be eligible for FDIC insurance, however, in the event you or Sutton Bank have funds, either directly or indirectly, at any of the Network Banks, such deposit insurance coverage may be adversely affected, and the principal and any accrued interest may not benefit from FDIC insurance, even if the total amount deposited in that Network Bank through the Deposit Network Service is less than the Standard Maximum Deposit Insurance Amount, as then provided by the FDIC. In addition, in the event of a failure of a Network Bank, you may be requested to provide certain personal information for the purposes of processing a claim to seek the associated FDIC insurance. In the event you do not provide such information on a timely basis, it is possible the beneficial funds will not benefit from FDIC insurance. By utilizing the services, you authorize Sutton Bank to utilize a Deposit Network Service as described and acknowledge that any associated beneficial principal balance and any accrued interest may or may not benefit from FDIC insurance.

EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY OTHERWISE PROVIDED IN THIS AGREEMENT, WE MAKE NOREPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND TO YOU, AND HEREBY EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, REGARDING THE CARD OR RELATING TO OR ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.We are not responsible for the quality, safety, legality, or any other aspect of any goods or services you purchase with your Card.
Limitation of Liability
WE WILL NOT BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR: DELAYS OR MISTAKES RESULTING FROM ANY CIRCUMSTANCES BEYOND OUR CONTROL, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ACTS OF GOVERNMENTAL AUTHORITIES, NATIONAL EMERGENCIES, INSURRECTION, WAR, OR RIOTS; THE FAILURE OF MERCHANTS TO HONOR THE CARD; THE FAILURE OF MERCHANTS TO PERFORM OR PROVIDE SERVICES; COMMUNICATION SYSTEM FAILURES; OR FAILURES OR MALFUNCTIONS ATTRIBUTABLE TO YOUR EQUIPMENT, ANY INTERNET SERVICE, OR ANY PAYMENT SYSTEM. IN THE EVENT THAT WE ARE HELD LIABLE TO YOU, YOU WILL ONLY BE ENTITLED TO RECOVER YOUR ACTUAL DAMAGES. IN NO EVENT SHALL YOU BE ENTITLED TO RECOVER ANY INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY OR SPECIAL DAMAGES (WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE), EVEN IF YOU HAVE ADVISED US OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. THIS PROVISION SHALL NOT BE EFFECTIVE TO THE EXTENT OTHERWISE REQUIRED BY LAW. TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, YOU AGREE THAT YOUR RECOVERY FOR ANY ALLEGED NEGLIGENCE OR MISCONDUCT BY US SHALL BE LIMITED TO THE TOTAL AMOUNT LOADED ON THE CARD.
Card Account Access
With your PIN, you may use your Card to obtain cash from any Automated Teller Machine (“ATM”) that bears the Mastercard®, ACCEL®, or MoneyPass® Acceptance Mark, or you may use the Card to withdraw funds over the counter at a financial institution that accepts debit cards bearing the applicable payment network brands on your Card, or any Point-of-Sale (“POS”) device, as permissible by a merchant, that bears the Mastercard® or ACCEL® Acceptance Mark. Some of these services may not be available at all terminals.
All ATM transactions are treated as cash withdrawal transactions. You may use your Card at an ATM, a POS device or through a participating bank (over-the-counter withdrawal), in each case in one or more transactions. The maximum amount that may be withdrawn from a Domestic ATM per transaction is $500.00. The maximum amount that may be withdrawn from a domestic ATM per day is $1,500.00. The maximum amount that may be withdrawn from a domestic ATM per month is $5000.00. The maximum amount that may be withdrawn from an international ATM per transaction is $500.00. The maximum amount that may be withdrawn from an international ATM per day is $1,000.00. The maximum amount that may be withdrawn from an international ATM per month is $3,500.00. Please note that each ATM owner may establish limits as to how much cash may be obtained from an ATM at a single time or through a single location. The combined maximum cumulative amount that may be withdrawn in any combination from a POS device and/or through a participating bank (over-the-counter withdrawal) per month is $7,500.00. Any funds withdrawn from a POS device or through a participating bank will be subject to the maximum amount that can be spent on your Card per day. If you seek to withdraw cash from a merchant POS device, please note that each merchant may establish limits as to how much cash may be obtained from a POS device at a single time or through a single location. This means that you may need to visit more than one merchant if you are seeking to withdraw cash in an amount which is less than or equal to the total limit above, but more than the limit established by the individual merchant.
When you use an ATM not in the MoneyPass® or ACCEL® network, you may be charged a fee by the ATM operator for any network used and you may be charged a fee for a balance inquiry even if you do not complete a fund transfer. We are not responsible for such fee. The amount of the surcharge should be disclosed at the ATM. Any such surcharge will be deducted from the balance of the Card, along with the amount of the withdrawal performed at the ATM and the fees that apply in accordance with the Fee Schedule. Your balance can be viewed at no charge by sending a text message with the word BAL to Ganaz +1 (707) 640-6408 or calling us at the Customer Service numbers on the back of your card.
Loading Your Card
Funds can be loaded at any time after the card is successfully activated. Your employer will be the sole means of adding funds to your Card and your Employer will report all wages and contributions as required by law and you will receive the appropriate notification, for the purposes of tax reporting, from your Employer. We bear no responsibility, whatsoever, for any such reporting or tax liabilities by your Employer.
Employer Loads
Payroll loads are available on your card on paydays, when approved by your employer.We have no obligation to you in the event that your employer delays in providing, or fails to provide funds to load your card.
Additional Card Features
We may offer additional products, features and services to you in connection with your Card, such as SMS text message and e-mail alerts, mobile account services, and other services. Additional terms and conditions may apply. Call us at the Customer Service numbers on the back of your card for additional information and applicable terms and conditions.
Using Your Card
The maximum amount that can be spent on your Card per transaction is $2,500. The maximum amount that can be spent on your Card per day is $2,500.00. The maximum amount that can be spent on your Card per month is $20,000. The maximum value of your Card is restricted to $20,000.00. You agree not to use the Card for business purposes. We may, in our sole discretion, close your Card if we determine that it is being used for business purposes. We may refuse to process any transaction that we believe may violate the law or the terms of this Agreement. You agree that you will: (i) not use the Card at unlawful domestic or international gambling web sites, or at payment processors supporting unlawful gambling web sites, or to purchase illegal goods or services; (ii) promptly notify us of any loss or theft of the Card; (iii) promptly notify us of the loss, theft, or unauthorized disclosure of any PIN used to access Card funds; and (iv) use the Card only as instructed. We may refuse to issue a Card, revoke or suspend your Card privileges or cancel your Card with or without cause or notice, other than as required by applicable law. You agree not to use or allow others to use an expired, revoked, cancelled, suspended or otherwise invalid Card.
You may use your Card to purchase or lease goods or services anywhere Mastercard® debit cards or Accel® cards are accepted as long as you do not exceed the value available on your Card Account. Some merchants do not allow cardholders to conduct split transactions where you would use the Card as partial payment for goods and services and pay the remainder of the balance with another form of legal tender. If you wish to conduct a split transaction and it is permitted by the merchant, you must tell the merchant to charge only the exact amount of funds available on the Card to the Card. You must then arrange to pay the difference using another payment method. Some merchants may require payment for the remaining balance in cash. If you fail to inform the merchant that you would like to complete a split transaction prior to swiping your Card, your Card is likely to be declined. At the time of each purchase using the Card, you may be asked to sign a receipt for the transaction. The dollar amount of the purchase will be deducted from the value associated with the Card.
If you use your Card at an automated fuel dispenser (“pay at the pump”), the merchant may preauthorize the transaction amount up to $75.00 or more. If your Card is declined, even though you have sufficient funds available, pay for your purchase inside with the cashier. If you use your Card at a restaurant, a hotel, or for similar purchases, the merchant may preauthorize the transaction amount for the purchase amount plus up to 20% or more to ensure there are sufficient funds available to cover tips or incidental expenses incurred. Any preauthorization amount will place a “hold” on your available funds until the merchant sends us the final payment amount of your purchase. Once the final payment amount is received, the preauthorization amount on hold will be removed. It may take up to seven (7) days for the hold to be removed. During the hold period, you will not have access to the preauthorized amount.
If you use your Card number without presenting your Card (such as for a mail order, telephone, or Internet purchase), the legal effect will be the same as if you used the Card itself. Your Card cannot be redeemed for cash except where required by law. You may not use your Card for online gambling or any illegal transaction. We may refuse to process any Card transaction that we believe may violate the terms of this Agreement or applicable law.
Each time you use your Card, you authorize us to reduce the value available in your Card Account by the amount of the transaction and any applicable fees. You are not allowed to exceed the available amount in your Card Account through an individual transaction or a series of transactions. Nevertheless, if a transaction exceeds the balance of the funds available on your Card, you shall remain fully liable to us for the amount of the transaction and any applicable fees. We may deduct any amount that you owe us from any current or future funds associated with this or any other Card you activate or maintain.
For security reasons, we may limit the number or amount of transactions you can make with the Card. You do not have the right to stop payment on any purchase or payment transaction originated by use of your Card. You may not make preauthorized regular payments from your Card Account using your Card Account’s direct deposit account number. If you authorize a transaction and then fail to make a purchase of that item as planned, the approval may result in a hold for that amount of funds for up to thirty (30) days or more.
Non-Mastercard Debit Transactions
New procedures are in effect that may impact you when you use your Card at certain merchant locations. In the past, transactions have been processed as Mastercard debit transactions unless you entered a PIN. Now, if you do not enter a PIN, transactions may be processed as either a Mastercard debit transaction or as a Accel transaction.
Merchants are responsible for and must provide you with a clear way of choosing to make a Mastercard debit transaction if they support the option. Please be advised that should you choose to use the Accel network when making a transaction without a PIN, different terms may apply. Certain protections and rights applicable only to Mastercard debit transactions as described in this Agreement will not apply to transactions processed on the Accel network. Please refer to the paragraph labeled “Your Liability for Unauthorized Transfers” for a description of these rights and protections applicable to Mastercard debit and non-Mastercard debit transactions.
To initiate a Mastercard debit transaction at the POS, swipe your Card through a POS terminal, sign the receipt, or provide your Card number for a mail order, telephone, or Internet purchase. To initiate a non-Mastercard debit transaction at the POS, enter your PIN at the POS terminal or provide your Card number after clearly indicating a preference to route your transaction as a non-Mastercard debit transaction for certain bill payment, mail order, telephone, or Internet purchases.
Fraudulent or Criminal Card Account Activity
We reserve the right to block, suspend, or cancel your Card if, as a result of our policies and processes, we detect what we reasonably believe to be fraudulent, suspicious, or criminal activity or any activity inconsistent with this Agreement. We may temporarily suspend your Card in the event we detect unusual or suspicious activity. If we exercise this right, we will incur no liability to you because of any resulting unavailability of the funds in your Card Account or your inability to use your Card.
Refunds and Returns
If you are entitled to a refund for any reason for goods or services obtained with your Card, you agree to accept credits to your Card for such refunds and agree to the refund policy of that merchant. The exchange or return of merchandise purchased in whole or in part with the Card will be governed by the procedures and policies of each merchant and applicable law. At the time of any exchange or return, you should present both the merchandise receipt and the Card. If you receive a credit, the credit may not be added to the available funds on the Card for seven (7) business days. The Issuer, Mastercard, or their respective affiliates, employees or agents are not responsible for the delivery, quality, safety, legality or any other aspects of goods or services that you purchase from others with a Card or any damages resulting directly or indirectly from the use of the Card. All such disputes must be addressed and handled directly with the merchant from whom those goods or services were provided.
Card Replacement
If you need to replace your Card for any reason, please return to your employer to request a replacement Card or call the Customer Service number on the back of your card. If you are unable to find your Card, you may put a security hold on your Card so no money can be spent or cash withdrawn while you look for it. Text “PAUSE” from your registered mobile device to the Customer Service number on the back of your card, or call the Customer Service number on the back of your card. You will be required to provide personal information which may include your Card number, full name, transaction history, copies of accepted identification, etc. We reserve the right to require an affidavit signed by you and conduct an investigation into the validity of any request. There is a fee for a replacement Card requested through Customer Service in the amount shown in the “Fee Schedule”, which will be deducted from the balance associated with the new Card. You can request a free replacement card through your employer.
Card Expiration
The Card plastic is valid through the expiration date shown on the front of the Card, except where prohibited or modified by applicable law. The funds associated with the Card do not expire. You will not be able to use your Card after the expiration date; however, you may request a replacement Card at no cost to you by following the procedures in the paragraph labeled “Card Replacement.” The new Card will have a value equal to the remaining balance of the expired Card.
Receipts
You should get a receipt at the time you make a transaction using your Card. You agree to retain, verify, and reconcile your transactions and receipts.
Card Account Balance/Periodic Statements
You are responsible for keeping track of your Card Account available balance. Merchants generally will not be able to determine your available balance. It is important to know your available balance before making any transaction. You may obtain information about the amount of money you have remaining in your Card Account by texting "BAL" to the Customer Service phone numbers on the back of your card. This information, along with twelve (12) months history of Card Account transactions, is also available by texting “TRANS” to the Customer Service phone numbers on the back of your card.
You also have a right to obtain a twenty-four (24) month written history of Card Account transactions by writing to us at Paper Statement Request, Ganaz Inc. Cardholder Services, 113 Cherry S, PMB 63600 Seattle, WA 98104. You will not be charged a fee for this information. In this request, you must include your full name, address and Card number. No paper statements will be mailed without a written request for that particular month. You will not automatically receive paper statements. You agree that these are reasonable procedures for sending and receiving paper statements.
Fee Schedule
All fee amounts will be withdrawn from your Card Account and will be assessed as long as there is a remaining balance on your Card Account, except where prohibited by law. Anytime your remaining Card Balance is less than the fee amount being assessed, the balance of your Card Account will be applied to the fee amount resulting in a zero balance on your Card Account.
Refer to the Fee Table available online at www.ganazcards.com.
Foreign Transactions
If you conduct a transaction in a currency other than U.S. dollars, the merchant, network or card association that processes the transaction may convert any related debit or credit into U.S. dollars in accordance with its then current policies. Mastercard currently uses a conversion rate that is either: (i) selected from a range of rates available in the wholesale currency markets (note: this rate may be different from the rate the association itself receives), or (ii) a government-mandated rate. The conversion rate may be different from the rate in effect on the date of your transaction and the date it is posted to your account. We will impose a charge equal to 3% of the transaction amount (including credits and reversals) for each transaction (U.S. or foreign currency) that you conduct outside the 50 United States and the District of Columbia (including foreign websites).
Unclaimed Property
Applicable law may require us to report to state government authorities any funds remaining with respect to your Card after a certain period of inactivity. In that event, we may try to contact you at the address shown in our records. If we are unable to contact you, we may be required to transfer any funds remaining with respect to your Card to state government authorities as unclaimed property.
Confidentiality
We may disclose information to third parties about you, your Card, or the transactions you make:
Where it is necessary or helpful for completing transactions;In order to verify the existence and condition of your Card for a third party, such as merchant;In order to comply with government agency, court order, or other legal or administrative reporting requirements;If you consent by giving us your written permission;To our employees, auditors, affiliates, service providers, or attorneys as needed;In order to prevent, investigate or report possible illegal activity;In order to issue authorizations for transactions on the Card;As permitted by applicable law; orOtherwise as necessary to fulfill our obligation under this Agreement.

Our Liability for Failure to Complete Transactions
If we do not properly complete a transaction from your Card on time or in the correct amount according to our Agreement with you, we will be liable for your losses or damages. However, there are some exceptions. We will not be liable, for instance:If through no fault of ours, you do not have enough funds available on your Card to complete the transaction;If a merchant refuses to accept your Card;If an ATM where you are making cash withdrawal does not have enough cash;If an electronic terminal where you are making a transaction does not operate properly, and you knew about the problem when you initiated the transaction;If access to your Card has been blocked after you reported your Card lost or stolen;If there is a hold or your funds are subject to legal or administrative process or other encumbrance restricting their use;If we have reason to believe the requested transaction is unauthorized;If circumstances beyond our control (such as fire, flood, or computer or communication failure) prevent the completion of the transaction, despite reasonable precautions that we have taken; orFor any other exception stated in our Agreement with you or by applicable law.
Your Liability for Unauthorized Transfers
If you are unable to find your Card, you may put a security hold on your Card so no money can be spent or cash withdrawn while you look for it. Text “PAUSE” from your registered mobile device to the Customer Service phone numbers on the back of your card. Contact us at once if you believe your Card has been lost or stolen. Telephoning is the best way to minimize your possible losses. If you believe your Card has been lost or stolen, or that someone has transferred or may transfer money from your Card Account without your permission, call us at the Customer Service numbers on the back of your card. Under Mastercard U.S.A. Inc. Operating Regulations, your liability for unauthorized Mastercard debit transactions on your Card Account is $0.00 if you notify us within two (2) business days and you are not grossly negligent or fraudulent in the handling of your Card. This reduced liability does not apply to PIN transactions not processed by Mastercard or to ATM cash withdrawals. If you notify us within two (2) business days of any unauthorized transactions, you can lose no more than $50.00 if someone used your Card without your permission. If you do not notify us within two (2) business days after you learn of the loss or theft of your Card and we can prove that we could have stopped someone from using your Card without your permission if you had promptly notified us, you could lose as much as $500.00.
Also, if you become aware of and/or your statement shows transactions that you did not make, notify us at once following the procedures stated in the paragraph labeled “Your Right to Dispute Errors”. If you do not notify us in writing within sixty (60) days after you become aware of the transaction and/or after the statement was made available to you, you may not get back any value you lost after the sixty (60) days if we can prove that we could have stopped someone from taking the value if you had notified us in time and you are grossly negligent or fraudulent in the handling of your Card. If a good reason (such as a long trip or a hospital stay) kept you from telling us, we will extend the time periods. If your Card has been lost or stolen, we will close your Card Account to keep losses down. Return to your employer to obtain a replacement card or call the Customer Service numbers on the back of the card

Although considerable effort is expended to make our servicing channels, and other operational and communications channels available around the clock, we do not warrant these channels to be available and error free every minute of the day. You agree that we will not be responsible for temporary interruptions in service due to maintenance, or changes, or failures, nor shall we be liable for extended interruptions due to failures beyond our control, including but not limited to the failure of interconnecting and operating systems, computer viruses, forces of nature, labor disputes and armed conflicts.
You agree to act responsibly with regard to our servicing channels and their use. You will not violate any laws, interfere or disrupt computer networks, impersonate another person or entity, violate the rights of any third party, stalk, threaten or harass anyone, gain any unauthorized entry, or interfere with the website’s systems and integrity.
We shall not bear any liability, whatsoever, for any damage or interruptions caused by any “computer viruses” that may affect your computer or other equipment. We advise the regular use of a reputable and readily available virus screening and prevention software.
