# How Do I Add Money to My KoraCard?

## Here at Kora, we make it easy to add money to your KoraCard\* so that you can start using it to make purchases right away!

Adding funds to your KoraCard enables you to take advantage of Kora's [cash back rewards program\*\*](https://help.koramoney.com/how-do-the-rewards-work?hsLang=en), and to use the card to make secure purchases online.

**There are three ways to load money onto your KoraCard.**

**KoraCash** — For approved users, you can load your KoraCash funds directly onto your card.  To add KoraCash to your card:

- - Log into the app
    - Click on the **Card** tab
    - Click on **Add or Transfer**
    - Click on **Add KoraCash**
    - Follow the prompts for applying for KoraCash, but when it comes time to select your payment method, select **KoraCard**

  **Bank transfer** — Load funds from your personal bank account using your account and routing number  
    - Log into the app
    - Click on the **Card** tab
    - Click on **Add or Transfer**
    - Select **Add Money From Your Bank**
    - Either use your account that's already connected or follow the prompts to add a new account

- **Direct deposit** — Your KoraCard generates a unique account number that can be used to direct deposit funds from your employer. 
    - Log into the app
    - Click on the **Card** tab
    - Click on **Add or Transfer**
    - Select **View Account and Routing Numbers**
    - Use the account information to set up direct deposit with your job

Note: You can only make purchases with your KoraCard if it is loaded and has adequate funding. *You cannot use your KoraCard to make purchases that exceed your account balance.* The transaction will be declined. As a precaution against overspending, Kora doesn't do overdraft! 

**Can I deposit a check onto my KoraCard?**

Nope. The KoraCard does not yet support this feature.
