Free Services and Transactions Associated with Vacation Debit Cards

The New York City District Council of Carpenters Benefit Funds, on behalf of the Board of Trustees, recently announced a new mandatory debit card program for vacation payments that will become effective in June. After the announcement, members had numerous questions about this new program, which will be implemented in association with rapid! PayCard.
