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!

Would be nice if there was a way to add yourself as AU on your loved one's  RB so  I won't have to worry about not matching my CC or ID with sister's  wife's RB at some stores.
Your sister has a wife?

The bigger question is why the sister isn't using her RB card to accumulate points for herself.

The CC that you used to fill up your RB account? If yes, it's recommended that you don't.

If it's closed correctly, right away. However, sometimes it doesn't really close, and then you need to call CS to make sure it gets closed.

Usually you will receive a confirmation email that it's closed.  You can try to register for RC and see if it goes through.
