Just a quick question on how you guys are doing Netspend and GDMP transfers exactly? My understanding is that these are essentially just prepaid debit cards, so are you physically mailing the cards or what?
You don't mail anything with either option.
If you sign up for a greendot or netspend card, you'll get it in the mail in around 3-5 days.
Once you have a Netspend card, you can send and receive money directly online. All you need from the other person is their username.
With greendot, you buy a moneypak. They sell them everywhere--wal mart, walgreens, CVS, and a bunch of other places. Once you purchase it, you just send the code. I'm pretty sure it's $4.95 per pak.
Both companies have their own ways of charging fees. Netspend is sort of 'a la carte'. You get charged $1 per signature purchase, and $2 per debit purchase. Greendot just charges you $5.95 at the end of each billing cycle, which they waive if you make 30 purchases or load $1000 dollars within that billing cycle.
