Texas Debit Card and Child Support: An Alternative to Paper Checks

The Texas debit card gives parents an alternative to receiving paper checks in the mail. The cards can be used anywhere VISA is accepted and parents do not need a bank account to get one. Any parent who receives child support through the Texas Child Support Disbursement Unit in San Antonio is eligible for the Texas Debit Card.

Benefits of the card include:
• 24/7 access to your money (even if you are away from home)
• No more waiting for checks to arrive or clear through your bank (payments are automatically loaded onto the card)
• No check cashing fees
• Safer and more convenient than using cash or checks
• Cash back options at several merchants
