RushCard represents another way for MetaBank to achieve its vision of promoting financial inclusion for everyone while assisting UniRush in executing on its mission of empowering members by providing access to services that enable them to achieve their personal and financial goals.

RushCard has significant growth plans for the future, and its relationship with MetaBank will lend itself to those plans, according to UniRush CEO Rick Savard. "After a careful review of potential issuers, we selected MetaBank based on its extensive prepaid experience, solid business model and overall infrastructure in place to offer RushCard an issuing partnership that will enable us to grow and expand our business," he said.

MetaBank President Brad Hanson looks forward to working with UniRush on developing future products and services. "It will be a pleasure working with the quality team at UniRush to offer more financial options to consumers," he said. "Like Meta, UniRush has a long history of helping to improve the financial dignity of millions of people who don’t have or choose not to use the traditional financial products many of us take for granted."
