Yes u can at a check cashing place most often and "hir" school I.D. should be sufficient proof of who she is, great idea. One that comes to mind is called Cash In at www.cashincard.com they r pretty good and should teach her how to minimize her spending by charging her for each transaction which will make her savvy real quick about not being too frivolous with her money especially when it goes so fast.

At age 15 your pre-paid credit card is called Mom & Dad or legal guardians. You really must be careful at such a young age to try and get a credit-card (pre-paid or not).

Be careful of the monthy fees and if your 15 can do accidental overdrafts.
Check with your bank
Western Union
Walgreens Stores carries
* Watch the fees *
AAA has them
Target has them too

Try www.visa.com. I'm almost 100% positive that it's possible. It's just like a gift card.
Here's a link to a teen specific card.
