description: Green Dot Corporation operates banking-as-a-service (BaaS), embedded finance, prepaid
  card, and earned-wage-access programs through its Arc platform and Green Dot Network. As of the
  reconciliation date, Green Dot does not publish self-serve API pricing or developer plans on its
  public website. All API access is presumed to be negotiated as part of a partner / program
  contract through the Green Dot business team.
notes: No public API pricing tiers found. Green Dot positions API access via partnerships (Arc
  embedded finance, Green Dot Network, paycard / EWA, tax practice solutions). Reconcile when a
  public partner pricing page becomes available.
