No, Fuego was built to provide access to wages you already earned, but that have not yet been paid to you. Using Fuego means that you are transferring your own earned wages into your Fuego Visa^® Card, bank account or debit card. You can only transfer money that you have already earned and is due to be paid on your scheduled pay date. This removes your potential need to rely on loans or predatory lenders. Fees may apply for transferring your earned income based on the wage transfer option you choose; you will not be charged interest at any time.

No, Fuego is a service that provides you access to your earned but not yet paid wages on an at will basis, so you can access and draw your wages when you need it. You can choose to use Fuego as frequently as you like.

The next time you receive your paycheck using Fuego, your wage draws will show as a deduction.

In other words, the earned wages that you don’t transfer before payday will simply be paid to you as a remainder payment on your scheduled payday.

Fuego does not have any wage draw transaction fees when you set up direct deposit to the Fuego Visa^® Card. In short, you pay $0 to draw your wages in minutes.

When depositing wages into an existing bank account or debit card, the wage draw fee is $1 for the first draw of the day. Subsequent draws come at no cost just in case you underestimated or if you also want to draw from another employer. Fuego also caps draw fees at $3 per weekly pay period or $5 per biweekly pay period.

Additional fees may apply for expedited transfers, $1 for same day ACH, or $2 to an external card.
