KoraCard* is a cash back virtual card just for college students with rewards!
What is a Virtual Card?
Virtual cards are designed for online and other card-not-present transactions. Think of the KoraCard as a card that lives on your phone. It has a 16-digit card number, expiration date and security code for online shopping.
We've built in some protective measures (against losing your card; against card theft), which you can review here.
How Do I Qualify?
You must be 18+ years of age and enrolled in college or a university.
What are the Perks?
When you shop in the Kora app using your KoraCard, you can earn cash back rewards powered by Dosh.
What is Dosh?
Dosh is the technology company we partner with to provide you with automatic, instant cash back when you use your KoraCard.
