Payroll Card
Using the Payroll Card is like receiving a paper check. It's just plastic and reusable! Just keep your Payroll Card safe and secure, as you would your paper check, and each payday your wages are loaded to it.
The Commonwealth of Kentucky currently holds a contract with U.S. Bank, in order to offer an alternative to utilizing a personal bank account for direct deposit purposes. This is the U.S. Bank Focus Card, a prepaid Visa ® debit card.
Cardholders have access to thousands of Visa member banks and U.S. Bank, Money Pass and AllPoint ATM locations offering surcharge free and instant access to their pay. (See Location Listing or
Coverage Map)
