With the new mobile application for your Direct ExpressĀ® Debit MasterCardĀ® card, you can manage your money conveniently and securely from your mobile device. The mobile application is free to download for the cardholders whose card number starts with 533248. You need to register again with your card details prior to logging in the first time.
Please Note: If your card begins with 511563 DO NOT download this app. Please look for the yellow Direct ExpressĀ® logo with a description stating that the app is for cards which start with the numbers 511563.
When you sign up to receive your federal benefits on the Direct ExpressĀ® card, you will receive your payment every month without having to worry about cashing your check or having it lost or stolen. Instead of receiving a check, your money will be automatically deposited to your Direct ExpressĀ® card account on payment day. You can use your card to make purchases at stores that accept Debit MasterCardĀ®, withdraw cash from Automated Teller Machines (ATMs), and get cash back when you make purchases. You can also use your debit card online to make payments and to also buy money orders at the U.S. Post Office.
Direct ExpressĀ® is a prepaid debit card offered to federal benefit recipients
