FREQUENTLY ASKED RESIDENT QUESTIONS

Q: Why is NPS giving me a free Prepaid MasterCard?A: Two reasons: First, your prepaid card offers the fastest way for us to send you refunds, and it’s a less expensive and more environmentally-friendly option than sending paper checks. Second, as a company, NPS is committed to helping our customers save money and build financial independence. Paying rent on time is the first step. Having your rent payment reported to a credit bureau helps. Using a prepaid MasterCard saves you more money when compared to check-cashing fees and the increasing costs of traditional retail checking accounts—all adding convenience to your payment needs.

Q: Is there a monthly fee for using the card?A: No, unlike other prepaid cards or banks, there are no monthly maintenance fees, no purchase transaction fees, and no overdraft or late payment fees.

Q: Where can I use my card?A: You can use your card anywhere Debit MasterCard is accepted. You can even get cash back at many retailers for no additional fee.
