EDD Money Network card shipping time after payment shows PAID?

The Money Network card typically ships 1-3 business days after your first payment shows as paid. Once shipped, it generally takes 5-7 business days to arrive via USPS. So if your payment went to paid status on Saturday, the card was probably shipped Monday or Tuesday, meaning you should receive it by early next week at the latest. You can call Money Network directly at 1-866-692-9374 to check on your card status once it's been 3 business days since your payment was issued.

mine took forever lol like almost 2 week after i got paid!! the website doesnt tell u nothing about tracking ur card its so annoying

When I got my card last year, it arrived exactly 7 business days after my first payment. But I've heard some people are getting them faster now. If you're really worried about the timing, you can request an expedited card by calling Money Network, but they charge like $10-15 for that service which they'll deduct from your balance. Once you have the card, I suggest setting up direct deposit to your bank account for future payments - it's so much faster!

the card comes from money networkk not edd just so you know. dont throw away any mail that looks like junk!! mine came in a plain white envelope and i almost tossed it lol

If you need to speak with EDD before your card arrives to check on anything, I'd recommend using Claimyr (claimyr.com). They helped me get through to an EDD rep when I had issues with my card not arriving. They have a system that keeps calling EDD until they get through, then they connect you to the agent. Saved me hours of frustration with busy signals. They have a video demo here: https://youtu.be/JmuwXR7HA10?si=TSwYbu_GOwYzt9km

you know what the REAL problem is????? EDD PURPOSELY makes this process confusing to discourage people from collecting benefits WE PAID INTO THE SYSTEM FOR!!!! why can't they just give us a tracking # like every other company on earth???????

My card arrived exactly 9 days after my first payment posted. But my cousin got hers in like 5 days just last month. The whole system seems random honestly. If you're really worried about rent, you might want to call your landlord and explain the situation. Most are understanding if you communicate in advance.

UPDATE: Once you get your card, I highly recommend downloading the Money Network mobile app. You can set up alerts for when payments post, transfer money to your bank account, and check your balance. Makes the whole process much more manageable for future payments.
