Since October 12, 2015, the prepaid REDcard (Redbird) can only be loaded at Target with cash. It can still be loaded online with a bank-issued debit card, up to $200/day and $1K/month.

Therefore, for MS (manufactured spending) Redbird is now considered dead. RIP!

Any cashier.
But sometimes they send you to Customer services if they never saw it before. I just go straight to customer services.

If the cashier is not sure what to do, just tell them to swipe the redcard... Then the computer prompts them

You can't have 4 different account numbers for same bank account.
Sure you can. I am not in a spoonfeeding mood tonight so don't ask.
