EDD Switches Debit Card Service to Money Network

We now issue payments for unemployment, disability, and Paid Family Leave customers on prepaid debit cards provided by Money Network. We no longer issue payments on Bank of America debit cards. Customers with any remaining funds on a Bank of America debit card should use or transfer those funds before April 15, 2024.

The switch to a new payment partner also brings with it the opportunity to provide customers a new direct deposit option coming later this year. Additional information about the Money Network Card is available at moneynetwork.com/edd in 21 of California’s top spoken languages. This includes instructions on how to activate the card, how to avoid fees and locate surcharge-free ATMs in local areas, FAQs, and translations of important “Terms and Fees” in all supported languages.
