USC ClinCards are reloadable debit cards for industry and non-industry clinical trials and research studies and are the preferred method of paying human subjects for recurring visits. The use of the ClinCards will eliminate the need for cash advances.

These debit cards can be used for point of sale purchases with merchants that accept MasterCard, for bank teller withdrawals, and for ATM transactions. Normally, there is a fee for new ClinCards and a fee every time the card is loaded with a new amount. The Keck School of Medicine will absorb these costs to encourage the use of the cards.

Benefits of ClinCard:
Payment to the subject is instant
More secure than receiving cash
No bank account is required
Personal information is kept secure since no social security number is required
No fee when using the card for purchase as a debit/credit or bank teller withdrawal
