ePay Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What do I need to qualify for an ePay account?
A: As a Dollar General employee, you are automatically eligible for an ePay account.
Q: DoesDollar General have access to my ePay account information?
A: ePay accounts are provided to our employees by an independent payroll distribution provider
(Money NetworkTM). Dollar General does not hold, service or have access to
your ePay account or spending
information.
Q: What are debit paycards?
A: Debit paycards are a dependable, fast and easy way to get your money every payday. You
don’t have to
wait in lines or show any kind of ID. You can get money from ATMs or you
can just start using your
debit paycard to make purchases
Q: How long does it take to get a debit paycard?
A: You will receive a temporary debit paycard immediately if you select the debit paycard
option. A permanent, personalized debit paycard
should arrive 7-10 days after your service is
activated.
Q: What if I don’t spend all of the money that was put into my ePay account?
A: That is your pay and it will remain there until you use your debit
paycard or checks.
Q: How do I know how much money I have?
A: You can call 1-888-913-0900 anytime, 24/7, and it will
give you your current balance, or, if
you have access to the Internet, you can log onto the
website
www.paystubportal.com/dollargeneral to check your
balance. You can also opt to receive
balance notifications via text messages sent to your
cell phone or via e-mail on a daily or
weekly basis.
Q: Is my balance always correct, can there be outstanding amounts?
A: Because paycard transactions are online and checks are pre-authorized,
your balance will be
the exact amount you have left to spend.
Q: Do I have to pay a sign-up fee to get an ePay account?
A: No. It is a free benefit for working for Dollar General.
Q: Is there a monthly fee for the ePay account?
A: No.
Q: Are there any fees with the ePay account?
A: There may be transaction fees. A complete list of all fees is included
in the ePay instant issue
pack you receive when you sign up.
Q: What is a transfer to a personal bank account?
A: You can register a personal or joint checking account and then move money
from your debit
paycard to that bank account via the phone or Internet.
Complete instructions are in the ePay
instant issue pack.
Q: Are there surcharges with debit paycard ATM withdrawals?
A: Surcharges are fees charged by the ATM owner. If the ATM
will charge a surcharge for your
withdrawal, you will be notified on the ATM screen and
asked to approve the surcharge. You
may approve or cancel the transactions if you do not
elect to pay the fee. Look onto
www.moneynetwork.com for surcharge free (in-network)
ATMs to avoid this extra fee.
Q: I don’t want to pay any fees, what can I do?
A: You can withdrawal your money using one or a combination of the free withdrawal
methods.
In-network ATM withdrawals, PIN POS transactions, signature
POS transactions, Visa®
bank over the counter withdrawals, ACH transfers, or
using a self-issued check are all free
ways to withdrawal money.
Q: What is a self-issued check?
A: It is a pre-authorized check drawn against your account balance.
It reduces your balance when
you write the check. The check can then be used to pay a bill,
deposit funds into your personal
bank account or can be cashed at a check-cashing location.
Free checks are included in your
ePay instant issue pack. *Do not throw away a completed pre-authorized
check if you decide
NOT to cash it. You must fax a copy to Money NetworkTM so the
money can be placed
back into your ePay account.
Q: How do I get additional checks?
A: Call the customer service number at 1-888-913-0900 and request additional
checks. They will
be mailed to you for free.
Q: Do I get any instructions about how to use the ePay account?
A: Yes, you get an ePay instant issue pack when you enroll and it has step-by-step
details about
how you can use the card. It also gives you the phone
numbers to call for customer support if
you ever need help.
Q: What happens if I lose my debit paycard?
A: Call the customer service number and report your card as lost and they
will send you a new
card. If you need immediate cash, customer service will
assist you in writing a check so you
will be able to access your cash until your new card
arrives.
Q: Is the paycard accepted at all ATMs?
A: It is accepted at over 99% of all ATMs.
Q: Is the paycard accepted in all stores?
A: The paycard is accepted wherever Visa® is accepted.
Q: How much can I withdrawal at one time or in one day?
A: You can get up to $600 per day at ATM’s or $2,999.99 per day
with in-store purchases.
Remember that some ATM’s have individual machine limits
of less than $600. Checks have a
limit of $9,999.99.
Q: What happens if I stop working here?
A: While Dollar General deposits will end after your last pay, you
can continue to use your ePay
account with other employers and load cash at participating
reload locations.
