Debit Card 

Beginning in March 2023, Money Network prepaid debit cards will be mailed to SWIF recipients who receive benefit payments via prepaid debit card. The Money Network prepaid debit cards will replace the U.S. Bank ReliaCard® currently in use. For more information, please visit the ReliaCard® to Money Network Transition FAQs. 

The new Money Network prepaid debit card will arrive in a plain white envelope with an Omaha, Nebraska, return address. Be sure to remove the new card before you discard this envelope.
