View Rule

In October 2016, the Bureau issued a final rule governing Prepaid Accounts Under the Electronic Fund Transfer Act (Regulation E) and the Truth in Lending Act (Regulation Z). Through its outreach to industry and other stakeholders to understand their experiences in implementing the Prepaid Accounts Final Rule, the Bureau has identified two issues which it plans to revisit in a separate notice and comment rulemaking process. Those issues relate to the linking of credit cards into digital wallets that are capable of storing funds and to error resolution for unregistered prepaid accounts. The Bureau is continuing to evaluate other concerns raised by industry, and may address other topics as well in its forthcoming proposal.
