US Patent 7979351 Prepaid transaction card activation system and method

The present subject matter relates to reloadable or non-reloadable prepaid transaction card activation systems. More specifically, the system provides a platform for activation of prepaid or stored value transaction cards and capture of customer demographic information, and verification of that information, after the customer has obtained or has been issued a prepaid transaction card. The data capture is performed at activation rather than at point of sale.
