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!

Split tender doesn't seem to work on DC loading. Need to load one at a time
Do you mean it doesn't auto drain or it doesn't work. I think it does work, but not auto drain.

I mean auto drain. Like ask to load $1k and then start swiping each card and put in Pin, didn't work.

Fair warning - Any PMs sent in response to forum posts are fair game for ridicule in public.
