The Housing Authority of the City Of Charleston is pleased to announce that we will soon be issuing Utility Payments on the U.S. Bank ReliaCard®. While you are currently receiving your payments on a Keybank prepaid card, as of February 1, 2025, these funds will be loaded onto a ReliaCard.

The ReliaCard is a convenient and secure way to receive your payments:

  • Payments are automatically loaded to your card.
  • You may make purchases, get cash, pay bills anywhere Visa is accepted.
  • Funds are protected if your card is lost or stolen.

If you remain eligible for payments through the Utility Reimbursement Payment Program:

  • Your ReliaCard will be delivered by  January 31, 2025
  • All payments made beginning February 1, 2025, will automatically be loaded to your ReliaCard.
  • You must choose a new Personal Identification Number (PIN) when you set up your ReliaCard.
  • The activation instructions, usage guide, Cardholder Agreement, and Fee Schedule will be included with your ReliaCard. Make sure to read and save this important information for your files.
