Instant-Issue a Dayforce Wallet Card: HR Administrators

Important: Before you can instant-issue a Dayforce Wallet Card to US employees, you must have some cards on hand. You can order a supply of the Dayforce Wallet Card in the Wallet tab on the Dayforce Support Portal. For instructions, go to https://support.dayforce.com and look up article KA-03489, or search for “How Do I Order Instant Issue Dayforce Cards? (US)”.

HR administrators—and other users authorized to access employee HR records in the People feature—can instant issue a Dayforce Wallet Card to an employee without the need to disburse funds at the same time, provided the employee does not already have a Dayforce Wallet Card. Dayforce automatically runs a verification query to see whether the employee already has a Dayforce Wallet Card. If the employee already has a Dayforce Wallet Card, the option to instant-issue one isn’t available.

The following screenshot illustrates the Payroll > Direct Deposit screen in People, where the HR administrator can issue an instant-issue Dayforce Wallet Card to an employee: 

After the HR administrator issues this card to the employee, the employee can set it up as a direct deposit option for regular payments (that is, not for Dayforce Wallet on-demand payments).

Important: An employee can only have one card activated at a time, either an instant-issue card or a personalized card. If an employee receives an Instant card first and then requests and activates the personalized card, the instant-issue card stops working.
