No, opening a Green Dot account does not impact your credit since we do not issue you a line of credit, require you to make monthly payments, or report your card activity to the major credit bureaus.

Money orders are similar to checks, but they are funded differently. A money order is purchased using cash if you choose to purchase one in our stores for a fee. You can use a money order to pay bills or send funds to anyone who does not accept personal checks. Just like a check, a money order has a tracking number and if it is lost or stolen, it can be replaced. Money orders clear more quickly, meaning the bank processes them faster. This also means that some creditors and individuals prefer money orders because they do not have to worry about your payment clearing- you can’t bounce a money order unlike checks. Likewise, you do not need a bank account to cash a money order. You can visit any easymoney store and cash it at a competitive rate!

You can send funds to anyone around the world, whether it’s the next town or across the globe, easymoney ’s got you. Visit anyone of our stores to electronically send cash quickly and safely. We require both the sender and recipient to provide ID and a unique reference number. However, to avoid fraud and mishaps, The Federal Trade Commission strongly advises against sending wire transfers to people or entities claiming you won a cash prize, telemarketers or anyone you have never met in person.
