ABSTRACT:
A system and method for electronic transfer of cash or cash equivalent between a sender and a recipient includes an initiating regional office for initiating the transfer and which receives an amount of money to be electronically transferred from the sender and a verification ID protocol from the sender, an initiating authorization center for storing the amount and the verification ID protocol in an account database, a dispensing authorization center for communicating with initiating authorization center and a dispensing regional office. When the recipient provides the verification ID protocol to the dispensing regional office, a financial card is issued to the recipient containing funds equivalent to the amount initially prescribed by the sender. The system provides the sender with the ability to provide the receiver (at a remote geographical location) with a secure, anonymous, ATM compatible financial card having a particular preset monetary value even in the case where the recipient does not possess proper identification documents.
