Originally available at bodegas across the tri-state region, RushCard was one of the first cards to offer Direct Deposit, money management tools to create budgets and track balances, as well as security features like Pause Protection.

Almost 15 years later, they continue to lead market share in the urban community with 700,000 active cardholders across the country, whose relationships are now managed entirely digitally from application to engagement.
