In Tynwald this week Treasury Minister Alex Allinson was asked by Douglas North MHK John Wannenburgh what arrangements there are for paying benefits to people without bank accounts.
The minister explained there's currently 1,088 remaining MiCard users.
He says government's been looking at how to help those who may need alternative means of receiving the money:
