Funds transferred in this way will be available to use on your card immediately.

Where can I use the card?

Dependent on your card type, you can use your Prepaid Card to make purchases from any merchant bearing the Acceptance Mark displayed on your card, including online (except for online gambling merchants).

Please note that some merchants such as gas stations or rental car agencies may have a policy to not accept Prepaid Cards. This is a merchant-specific policy.

How can I obtain my card balance?

There are four ways you can check your card balance:

  • By logging into your online Pay Portal and viewing your card balance.
  • Using your smartphone, by accessing your Pay Portal via the mobile site www.Paylution.com/smart. Or, find and download the VPay Portal mobile app from iTunes or Google play!

How long does it take for my transaction history to update with my card transactions?

What limits is my card subject to?

Your Prepaid Card is subject to transaction limits as defined in your Cardholder Agreement under Fee Schedule and Using The Card/Features.

What should I know about using my Prepaid Card at gas stations, hotels and other merchants?

When you swipe or insert your prepaid card at a gas station pump, the gas station will place a pre-authorized hold of up to $125.00 USD or more on your card prior to you filling up.

The actual amount purchased will be processed on the card at a later time, but the initial hold may last for 8 days before being released, minus the amount of gas that was purchased.

During the time that the hold is in effect, the funds being held will be unavailable for you to use.

When the transaction settles, you will only be charged for the amount of gas purchased.

To avoid pre-authorized holds, we recommend pre-paying inside the gas station so you can specify the exact amount of gas you wish to purchase.

Some other merchants may have similar practices and even longer maximum pre-authorization timeframes:

  • Hotels and cruise lines (up to 30 days)
  • Vehicle rental agencies (up to 60 days)
  • Financial institutions (up to 10 days)

In some cases, the merchant may be able to make an exception and release the pre-authorized hold earlier than the maximum allowed hold time.

Why is a transaction still outstanding?

If you notice a transaction under the status “outstanding purchase”, the merchant has not yet cleared the transaction. Transactions are usually cleared by the merchant shortly after the purchase was made.

However, some merchants such as gas stations, hotels, or cruise lines for example may pre-authorize a larger amount than the initial purchase and keep a hold on the funds for a longer time. These transactions will remain “outstanding purchases” until the merchant releases the funds and clears the transactions.

Can I dispute an outstanding purchase?

Please note that you will not be able to dispute a transaction if the status is still “outstanding purchase”. However, the merchant should be able to release the funds early. In order to have the funds released, please refer to section below.

How to release Pre-Authorised transaction?

If you would like to have the funds released earlier than the usual time frame, please follow the instructions below:

The merchant will need to fax a pre-authorisation release letter to hyperWALLET Systems Inc. at +1 604 482-0091.

The signed and dated letter will need to be sent directly from the merchant and will also need to be on company letterhead. The following information must be included for the authorisation to be released:

  • Customer’s Name
  • Customer’s card # (first 6 and last four digits only)
  • Date of authorization
  • Authorization Amount in original currency
  • Authorization Code
  • Merchant ID

If the pending authorization is from a car rental, the merchant will also need to supply a copy of the closed contract (showing that the car has been returned).

If the pending authorization is from a hotel, the merchant will also need to supply a copy of the closed folio (showing check in/check out).

Security and Privacy

How do I spot a phishing email/website, or fake, fraudulent communications pretending to be Hyperwallet?

A Hyperwallet communication will never:

  • Ask payees to click on links that take them to a fake website- A link could look perfectly secure. If you’re on a computer, you can hover the mouse over the link to see the true destination. If unsure, you should not click that link.
  • Contain unknown attachments- You should only open an attachment when you're sure it’s legitimate and secure. Some attachments contain viruses that install themselves when opened.
  • Convey a false sense of urgency- Phishing emails are often alarmists, warning you to update the account immediately. They're hoping victims fall for their sense of urgency and ignore warning signs that the email is fake. 
  • Have Poor Spelling or Grammar- The email uses strange salutations, odd wording, poor grammar or spelling errors.
