ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides a money card system, method and apparatus that is convenient, easy to use, does not require good or any credit, is useable by individuals having low incomes, is interchangeable with cash, is available in many currencies, can be used in COD transactions, and is safer than cash, checks, money orders, cashier's checks, traveler's checks, ATM cards, credit cards, debit cards, stored-value cards and smart cards. For these individuals, the money card would provide the functionality of cash enhanced with the security of a Personal Identification Number (PIN) or Personal Identification Code (PIC) or other biometric information, such as fingerprint, handprint, voiceprint, iris scan, retina scan, thermal image, electronic/digital signature or any other form of endorsement that may be used to personalize and secure the transaction.
