Help People Winterize Their Money

The winter months are the perfect time to highlight the reliability and convenience of electronic payments. Ice, snow and subzero temperatures can temporarily disrupt mail service and leave people stuck without access to their money at a time when they need it most.

The U.S. Department of the Treasury's official deadline for switching to electronic payments is nearing, but winter is here now. It's important that people take steps to protect their money from winter weather before the next storm hits.

New, free materials are available for community-based organizations and financial institutions to use in urging people to winterize their money with direct deposit or the Direct Express^® Debit MasterCard^® card. If your organization is located in the Northeast, special newsletter copy is available for you to share with the people you serve. Communicate this important information with federal benefit check recipients today!
