New Rules Proposed for Prepaid Financial Products
CFPB is proposing to amend Regulation E, Regulation Z, and the official interpretations to create comprehensive consumer protections for prepaid financial products. The proposal would cover prepaid accounts such as cards, codes, or other devices capable of being loaded with funds and usable at unaffiliated merchants or for person-to-person transfers and are not gift cards.
