The Eagle Cash/Navy Cash card is a branded pre-paid debit card that looks like a typical debit or check card. Eagle Cash//Navy Cash combines a chip-based electronic purse (stored-value function) with the traditional magnetic stripe (debit card and ATM function). The electronic purse replaces currency aboard ship.
If you're permanently assigned to a ship, you're eligible to receive an Eagle Cash/Navy Cash card. If you're a visitor, you can be issued an Eagle Cash/Navy Cash 'Visitors card' while aboard the ship.
Eagle Cash/Navy Cash was developed in partnership with Defense Finance and Accounting Service (DFAS), the U. S. Navy and Marine Corps, and the Department of the Treasury.
