Thank you for your interest in opening a PODERcard Debit bank account! You're one step closer to getting a bank account that's tailor-made for you. Before diving in, you may be wondering what ID's are accepted - good question! This post will clarify what we do and do not accept.
What types of identification are required to open a PODERcard Debit?
When you begin the process of opening a PODERcard Debit account, the system gives you three options to certify your identity. You can choose between using a Social Security Number (SSN), Personal Taxpayer Identification Number (ITIN), or a passport. After entering this information, the system may ask you to upload photos of an official identification to certify the details.
The accepted forms of identification are the following:
- Passports
- Official state identification (U.S. State I.D.)
- State Driver's License
Do you accept passports when opening a PODERcard Debit account?
Yes! Passports are accepted. Please follow the step-by-step instructions below to enroll that way.
Step 1. When you begin your enrollment process, you will see a screen asking you to verify your identity. Choose “Passport” to enroll.
Step 2. On the following screen, enter your passport number and select your nationality. Click on “Confirm passport” to continue.
Step 3. You will be asked to take a picture of your passport. You may upload a photo of the page or card. Make sure the photo is in focus, legible, and nothing is cut off before accepting the photo. Click on “Accept Picture” to continue, or “Retake” until you are happy with the quality of the image being submitted.
Step 4. On the next screen, you will be asked to submit proof of your address. In order to verify your address, please take a picture of a Utility Bill, Pay Stub, or Bank Statement with your name and address. Make sure the photo is in focus, legible, and all the key details are included. Click on “Accept Picture” to continue, or “Retake” until you are happy with the quality of the image being submitted.
That's it! Once you've gone through the steps above, you'll be good to go.
