Benny™ Prepaid Visa® Card

If your employer has made the Benny debit card option available to you, download a PDF of the Benny Prepaid Visa Card Brochure, Debit Card Frequently Asked Questions and Important Information About Receipts to learn more about it. For plans that allow the purchase of over-the-counter items, the Card works at retail establishments that have implemented an Inventory Information Approval System (IIAS). Check the IIAS Participating Merchant List regularly to view and download the most current listing of certified IIAS merchants.

Please check the 90% Merchants Rule List for those pharmacies that are registered with the IRS.

NOTE: The Benny Prepaid Benefits Card is only accepted at pharmacies and drugstores appearing on either the IIAS Participating Merchant List or the 90% Merchants Rule List.
