Why buy a bankcard...
Why do people need to buy reloadable bankcards, why not just go to your bank and have one issued???
Just saw a commercial for one.

For a little bit I didn't have a bank account.. and I would go to a check cashing place to cash my checks... they had ads for them there.. so.. I'm assuming it's aimed at people who can't get bank accounts... :shrug:

What is stopping someone from opening a bank account, other than illegal activities? I opened an account when I was a teen.

I think it's aimed at people that don't need access to all their money at any given time. Either teens with an allowance, compulsive spenders, just irresponsible people in general.
