Balance Check Troubleshooting
🔴 Balance shows $0
The card may be fully spent, not yet activated, or an unauthorized charge may have occurred. Call 1-833-322-6760 to investigate.
🔴 Card number not recognized
Make sure you are entering all 16 digits correctly. The number may be split into 4 groups of 4 on the card front. Check for a different number on Mastercard-branded cards.
🔴 Card declined but balance is showing
Some merchants (hotels, gas stations, rental cars) place a hold larger than your purchase. Also check that the card is fully activated and the expiration date hasn't passed.
🔴 Can't check balance online
Make sure you are on the correct official site. Try clearing your browser cache or using a different browser. As a backup, call the number on the back of your card.
