GA EPPICard by debit MasterCard® is the safe and convenient way to receive your Georgia Child Support and Cash Assistance payments.

How it works

The GA Eppicard is a prepaid Mastercard that can be used as a regular debit card.

You can withdraw cash and use the card online or in-store just like a normal debit card. Once benefits are deposited into your Eppicard account, they are available for immediate use.

The GA Eppicard eliminates the waiting process associated with child support and TANF payments sent in the mail.

A Georgia Eppicard provides access to your funds 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

You can access your funds at an ATM, bank teller window, and merchant location, anywhere debit MasterCards are accepted.

Your debit card account is FDIC insured and your account is protected by your Personal Identification Number (PIN).

Deposits are posted on the banking day after your payment is received and processed.

The State of Georgia is pleased to offer you the convenience and security of the Georgia Debit MasterCard.
