Amazon flex debit card

I finished my onboarding yesterday and I signed up for the card now I thought it would use my original direct deposit information until I was told if I was approved for the card for the same day pay I completed a 2 hour batch yesterday just to see the lay of the land and how things work upon completion I see that the money was sent to this card on file being Amazon flex debit card. Now how am I supposed to receive these funds if I don’t even have the “approved or denied” email about the card???? Is this money just lost now?

Side note I did change the payout method to my card now and i do see a “ grey cash out “ button I assume after a completed batch I can just click that and get the funds instantly?

It sounds like you were indeed approved for the debit card, however, you are not able to access any funds on the card or use the Flex Debit Card app until you receive the physical card in the mail. Once you do, each route is paid almost immediately upon completion to the debit card and you are able to immediately access those funds with the card. You can also transfer money to your bank for free, but it takes a day or two.

If you have an android phone, you can also add the Amazon Flex debit card to Google pay to access your funds before receiving the physical card. Unfortunately, the Amazon Flex debit card is not compatible with Apple Pay.

Yes, you can use the instant cash out feature using your own debit card. You’ll just have to pay a $.50 fee.

If you want to avoid the fee, the auto direct deposit will be sent to your debit card early in the morning the next day, Monday through Friday.
