Enhanced Enrollment Features!

Navy Cash self-enrollment has been available to all new card holders for some time. New 

Crewmembers, Marines, Squadrons, AIRDETs, and TAD personnel can use Navy Cash Self 

Enrollment before embarking onboard ships. This is a terrific value added feature to further reduce the 

NCAOs work load for 2887/2889 management and allow both new cardholders and NCAOs a smooth 

transition for card issuance. New cardholders can go to www.navycash.com, look for “Need a Navy 

Cash Card?” and click on ‘Enroll Here’ to get started.

New cardholders will have to agree to the Terms and Conditions, and privacy policies then enter their 

personal email to proceed. NCAOs will want to inform those self-enrolling to have their bank’s 

routing number and their checking account number ready to input into the application to fully 

register. New enrollees will need to know the command they are going to so their profile can be sent 

to that ship. Upon arrival, the enrollee can go to Disbursing to get their new card. As a NCAO, you 

don’t need to have them complete a new 2887, it’s done through the self-enrollment; no need to 

upload a 2887, the self-enrollment information is attached to the card holders profile.

All contractors should be directed to self-enroll as well, they’ll have an extra requirement to note they 

are a contractor within the 2887 and then provide additional employer information. Properly 

completing this step will generate a 2889 contractor form to attach to their profile.

Self-enrollment reduces the work load on the NCAO/Deputy and ensures the cardholder has a valid 

2887 on file and gives the NCAO the proper information to manage and collect negative balances and 

ensure remaining funds left on a card be pushed to the cardholder.

Completed 2887/2888/2889 Documents

Please ensure any cardholder within your command using a Navy Cash card has a completed 

2887/2888/2889 on file with the Federal Reserve Bank.

2887s are for any military or federal civilian employees, direct new cardholders to compete the selfenrollment through the Navy Cash website or the Navy Cash mobile App.

2888s are for all merchants’ onboard ship under your Navy Cash/Disbursing responsibility that have a 

card connected to a bank. When a merchant card holder turns over as a result of new responsibilities, 

or a transfer a new 2888 should be completed for the new accountable official for that 

merchant. Please ensure all your merchant card holders with a connected bank account to the card are 

current.

2889s are an additional form required by US Treasury for all contractors that use Navy Cash, this is 

an additional form to the 2887both of which can be managed through the Navy Cash website through 

self-enrollment. 

Completed forms are the best management tool a NCAO can have to manage cardholder accounts, 

negative balance collections, and to return abandoned funds should a card holder not go through a 

proper check out.

Device Management Reminder:

Whether you’re pier side, out for local ops or deployed we remind you to employ sound device 

management. All your devices; Point of sales (POS), Card accessing devices (CAD), Kiosks, work 

stations and servers should be fully operational to support Navy Cash for everyday business. When 

your devices are off line reference the Device User Guide in the SOP, section 5D, to try and bring 

them back up. This usually entails powering the device off, then back on. If that doesn’t bring the 

device back online then open a trouble ticket with Navy Cash CSU for additional support.

If the Device is broken, regardless of the reason, open a ticket to have it replaced, return instructions 

will follow then get the broken POS or CAD into the mail as soon as you’re able and a replacement 

will be shipped. If there are any transactions remaining on the device, FRB or SAIC will recover the 

transaction if possible, once collected you’ll receive an email to establish a remote session to upload 

any transactions to your system.

Take the opportunity to ensure all your devices are in good working order, any broken or nonfunctional devices that may be sitting around in a drawer or safe or closet, open a ticket and get them 

ready to send out for replacement once instructed. It’s important to ensure you take the time to 

manage your devices to ensure inventory compliance, you have the allotted number of spares, and you 

can support your crew’s Navy Cash activity. It further helps us ensure you’re fully supported through 

the program office and we maintain good back up inventory to ensure you can do the same.

IPA 280 Point of Sale Devices

For all ships with Navy Cash version 1.4.7.1, you have IPA 280 point of sale devices. As you’re all 

aware these legacy POS devices are very aged. NAVSUP Program Office askes you keep a close eye 

on these devices for swollen batteries. If you have an IPA 280 out of commission due to breakage, 

or just not communicating/charging please open a case with Navy Cash CSU to have it exchanged for 

a replacement. If there is an IPA 280 POS with a swollen battery, it should be removed, turned into 

your HAZMAT department and then open a ticket with the subject line ‘Swollen Battery’. This will 

allow the program office to manage remaining inventory and allocate devices and spare batteries as 

needed. For additional questions or comments please connect with your Navy Cash FLC 

representative.

Navy Cash Cardholder Profile Moves: As a reminder, when processing new checks in for personnel 

that had a Navy Cash account previously, please use the full SSN to search on the Navy Cash website. 

After locating the profile, you can change the location to your ship. After the next roundtrip, or 

about 24 hours later, you should be able to issue the cardholder a new card. Of note, if you do NOT 

use the full SSN and use the first and last name, you may accidently pull the wrong individual over to 

your ship, which will cause several issues. If the cardholder still has their unexpired Navy Cash card, 

they can simply do a “Ship check in” at the Navy Cash ATM onboard the ship. After 24 hours, their 

Navy Cash card should be fully functional. If you have any questions about these procedures, please 

contact your supporting FLC.

Lieutenant Junior Grade Joshua Oropeza, Disbursing and Sales Officer on board 

USS CHAFEE homeported in San Diego, CA was selected as the Navy Cash 

Manager of the Month. His outstanding leadership, technical acumen, and superb 

management have been absolutely crucial to the success of CHAFEE’s Supply 

department and Sales and Disbursing division. After returning from deployment 

and finishing extended sustainment phase LTJG Oropeza ensured his Disbursing 

and Navy Cash operation were in full compliance with DoDFMR and TYCOM 

instructions. He single handedly facilitated the ship to barge move of all Navy 

Cash equipment and ensured it was up in running on the barge in no time! LTJG 

Oropeza has gone above and beyond with his technical knowledge and customer 

service to support USS CHAFEE’s crew! His accomplishments and steadfast 

resolve and devotion to duty have made him well deserving of the title “Navy Cash 

Manager of the Month.”

ENS Jonah Wehrli, the Disbursing and Sales Officer onboard USS Green Bay

(LPD 20) in Sasebo, Japan has been selected as the Navy Cash Manager of the

Month! ENS Wehrli has been onboard the GREEN BAY since September 2022 

and has been providing service for roughly 1,000 Sailors and embarked Marines 

across two arduous 7th Fleet patrols in 2023. His dedication to standards and 

customer service has resulted in $97K in profits transferred to MWR and no 

missing FS 2887 or FS 2888 for the last three months.

ENS Wehrli’s work ethic and attention to detail resulted in a score of 

“OUTSTANDING” during his Field Examination Group Audit in November 2023. 

ENS Wehrli’s commitment to excellence is shown day in and day out and well 

deserves to be Navy Cash Manger of the Month.

The Disbursing crew of aboard the USS Dwight D Eisenhower (CVN 69) homeported in 

Norfolk, VA was selected as the Navy Cash Team of the Month of October 2023. Over 

the past few months, LTJG Halsey, PS1 Hanson, PSSN Riddle, and PSSN Alvarez-Brito, 

have dealt with many issues that involved a lot of time and dedication to resolve. As a 

combination, their outstanding leadership, technical acumen, and superb management 

have been integral and crucial to USS DWIGHT D EISENHOWER’s success. Their high 

standards, coupled with the strict adherence to procedural compliance, led to Dwight D 

Eisenhower’s earning a grade of EXCELLENT during the most recent Field Examination 

Group audit that was completed on May 31, 2023. The team earned a PERFECT grade on 

the Supply Management Inspection in July 2023, immensely impacting the command’s 

score for the Battle E. Their performance and maintenance of the Navy Cash System has 

been nothing short of outstanding. The current FS2888 Progress Report for October 2023 

reflects no missing forms for Merchant applications. They also diligently managed the 

negative balance ledger to reflect one negative balance over 60 days old. Additionally, in 

September, the Disbursing Officer executed and hosted the 2023 Navy Cash Executives 

Tour. This site tour included an overview of the Navy Cash program, firsthand accounts 

of the program impact onboard, and tour of his ship. The team was faced with many 

challenges but with togetherness, resolve, and devotion to duty they were able to 

overcome. BRAVO ZULU!
