What is necessary to get the Green Dot Card?
All you have to do is visit one of our participating retailers to purchase the Card and call or go online to provide your personal information to activate the Card. Federal law requires us to obtain, verify and record your name, address, date of birth, and Social Security number when you register a Green Dot Card. The cardholder’s personal information will be kept on record upon Card activation and the cardholder’s name will be embossed on his or her Personalized Card. If a valid social security number is not provided, a Personalized Card will not be issued.
