The Eppicard only allows state funds and any other funds are NOT allowed to be loaded unto the card. Once the Eppicard runs out of funds it will not be able to be used again to make purchases until the customers monthly benefits (i.e. child support, unemployment, veterans affairs disability payments) are added to the card. To obtain cash at an ATM please select the “cash withdraw” tab and double-check the machine for any surcharges associated with the withdraw.
