E-wallet FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

What is e-wallet?
E-wallet is an alternative way for Associates to receive commission payments. It is an online account—administered by third-party service provider Lightstorm—that offers many advantages, including faster payments, flexibility to quickly and easily move money to existing bank accounts, free e-mail notifications when money arrives in the user’s account, and the freedom to manage commissions online. E-wallet is especially beneficial for Associates who do not have bank accounts, because it can be set up without a local bank account.
Can I transfer money to debit or credit cards?
No. But you can transfer your funds to an existing bank account or a prepaid loadable card.
Can I still get paid via direct deposit?
Yes. You may choose either e-wallet or direct deposit as your preferred method of payment. E-wallet is an alternative way to get paid that offers many benefits. You can, however, continue to receive commissions via direct deposit.
Can I use e-wallet to pay for USANA Auto Orders?
Yes, you may request to use e-wallet as your preferred method of payment for USANA Auto Orders. Please remember that you must have sufficient funds in your account to use this option. Your e-wallet account cannot have a negative balance.
Can I use e-wallet to pay for USANA products?
Yes. Shop online, as usual, for USANA products. At checkout, select e-wallet as the payment option and provide your account details as requested. Review your order. If it is correct, click “Confirm.” Please remember you must have sufficient funds in your account to use this option. Your e-wallet account cannot have a negative balance.
Can I use e-wallet to pay for other products or services?

How do I open an e-wallet account?
To begin, go to the registration page via a link on The Hub. Provide the requested information and follow the instructions. Please note: If you currently receive commission payments via direct deposit but would like to receive commission payments in your new e-wallet account, please contact USANA and request that your direct deposit account be set as “auto pay” only.
How do I continue receiving commissions via direct deposit?
If you are set up with direct deposit and want to continue receiving commissions via direct deposit, it is not necessary to make any changes. Direct deposit will continue until you set up an e-wallet account and change your direct deposit account to “auto pay” only.

If I decide not to use e-wallet anymore, can I switch back to direct deposit?
Yes. Contact USANA and request your direct deposit account be set as “Auto Deposit.” Your next earned commission will be sent to your direct deposit account on file. If you do not have a direct deposit account set up with USANA, you will need to open one before you can receive commissions. Your e-wallet account will remain open until you close it or until the balance falls below the minimum requirement.

Is e-wallet secure?
Yes. USANA and Lightstorm are committed to keeping your information safe. During registration, you will be prompted to create and confirm a password and three security questions. The answers to these questions will be required to access your account or to change or reset your password.

Why am I being asked to deactivate my account?
Your e-wallet account must maintain a minimum balance to cover the monthly activity fee and transfer fees (see E-Wallet Fees for more information). If your account balance falls below this threshold, the system will prompt you to deactivate the account. If you wish to deactivate your account, follow the prompts and confirm the request. If the balance of the account is greater than fees that are due, you will be prompted to cash out the remaining balance before continuing. If the balance of the account is less than the fees that are due, the account will be reduced to a zero balance and deactivated.

What do the e-wallet fees pay for?
E-wallet is administered by a third-party service provider called Lightstorm. E-wallet fees cover administrative costs for this service.

Can I add non-USANA funds to my e-wallet account?
No. USANA e-wallet accounts do not allow for deposits from elsewhere.

How do I close my e-wallet account?
To close your e-wallet account, it must have a zero balance. Transfer your money out of e-wallet to another account, then e-mail helpdesk@lightstormglobal.com to tell them you’d like to close your account. Your message should include your USANA ID, the e-mail address associated with your e-wallet account, and your first and last name.

I have more questions. How do I contact customer service?
You may contact a customer service representative by e-mailing CustomerService@USANAinc.com or calling 1-888-950-9595.

The following site can be utilized to calculate exact local times for a specific market by entering the MST/MDT time:

Associate Use of a Credit Card with a Different Currency

Most banks will do the exchange for the currency at the daily exchange rate. There may or may not be an exchange fee. You will need to check with the bank where the card is issued to be sure.

Online Order Changes

Unfortunately, once an order is completed online, changes can only be made by contacting customer service for assistance. There is limited time to make any changes–a maximum of 30 minutes since completion. After 30 minutes, absolutely no changes can be made to the order.

Online Account Security

USANA uses a Secure Socket Layer (SSL) encryption on secure pages (those that require credit card or personal information to be entered). The easiest way to see that the page is protected by SSL is that the URL of the page rather than beginning with just http:// as most all pages do, it begins with https:// which indicates the page is protected using SSL encryption.
