A combined 30 years’ experience
J1Card.com is the brainchild of seasoned prepaid wireless executives, with a combined 30 years’ experience, focused on providing services to students that enter the United States under the US Department of State-supported Work & Travel Program. The Exchange Visitor category is for individuals approved by the US Department of State to participate in work- and study-based exchange visitor programs.
Providing products & services to SWT program
Leadership at J1 have been actively providing products & services to SWT program participants for many years and have identified the salient need for students that are granted entry into the US to have access to the same essential banking services enjoyed by locals – a place to receive their pay from their approved employer via Direct Deposit.
Currently, when a program participant receives a paycheck, they must go to a check cashing facility to cash their check. These facilities, as you know, charge large fees and now the student is left with managing cash, which presents its own problems. J1Card offers participants the opportunity to receive their pay via direct deposit and spend those funds in a safe and secure fashion via mobile payment apps or traditional debit card.
