How is the Green Dot Card different than a Gift Card?
Unlike gift cards, Green Dot prepaid cards are personalized with your name, allow you to make ATM withdrawls in addition to making purchases, and can be reloaded with money. The temporary card that is included in the package can also be reloaded1 and should be used to pay for purchases until your personalized card arrives in the mail. You will not be able to make purchases that require a PIN number or use an ATM until you receive your personalized card.
