Green Dot card for direct deposit in QBO

I have employees who have a Green Dot debit card and I have tried to use their cards for direct deposit and they always fail.  Is the Turbo pay card the only card accepted for direct deposit through QBO?

 

Thanks

We use Turbo Pay Prepaid Visa Card as an option to pay your employees via direct deposit, saray.  

 

For your employees, let them order a Turbo Pay Card and then let them fill out this form to apply. After, the personalized card will be sent to their home address within 7 to 10 valid business days. Once received, they can activate the card for use. 

 

As an employer, ask the employee for their account and routing number. Then, update the employee information in QuickBooks. You can now pay your employees through direct deposit to their new card. 

 

Here are some tips you can read more about Pay Card: How does the Intuit Turbo℠ Pay Prepaid Visa® Card work?.  

 

If you have any follow-up questions, please let me know by adding a comment below. I'm always here to help. Have a good one!

Thank you Ailene.  Just to clarify - the only compatible pay card to work with QBO is Turbo Pay card?

 

Thank you

Once applied and you're good to activate it, you can check this guide on how to do so: Activate Card.

You bet.  I reached out to them and they sent me to the 3rd party who admins the card who sent me back to them again and none of them knew the answer, back when I put this comment out here.  None-the-less we aren't using this card as we can't figure out how to have our employees apply for it.  But thank you.

Again this only gives you an option to activate an existing card.  Where is the link to apply for a new card?

What is going on with Intuit customer support?  This is ridiculous!  It's like going through a maze to even reach customer support and when you do you have to teach them!

I'm finding the same,  It's maddening and so time consuming.

Thanks for sharing this with us, @Missgoode2shews1.

 

I'll lay out some information on how to get a pay card to your employees in QuickBooks Online Payroll.

 

We offer the option of paying your employees through direct deposit using the Turbo Pay Prepaid Visa Card.

 

Allow your staff to order a Turbo Pay Card and fill in the application form. Moreover, the delivery can run up to 7 to 10 working days for the custom card. They can make the card usable after receiving it.

 

Additionally, we can contact the Turbo tax support team to get an application form for your employee pay cards.

 

Once the cards are available, you can pay your employee with direct deposit. How to do it? See this page for your guide: Set up direct deposit for employees.

Will this work w/Desktop Pro 2022 (full payroll subscription)?

 

I just need either a checking or savings account, routing number & bank account number.

Thanks for following up with the Community, Missgoode2shews1.

 

The Turbo® Visa® Debit Card will work with QuickBooks Desktop Payroll subscriptions, as long as it's a United States based account, accepts ACH transactions, and is a checking/savings/money market account.

 

Once your employee(s) activate their card(s), you can obtain a completed Direct Deposit Authorization form and a voided check from their bank account, then you'll be prepared to start adding direct deposit for the employee(s).

 

You'll also be able to find many detailed resources about using QuickBooks in our help article archives.

 

I'll be here to help if there's any additional questions. Have a lovely day!
