You know, his credit card bills come out higher than mine." >> Reporter: Now, Antuan carries the "pocketcard," a visa debit card tied to an online bank account.

Every purchase Antuan makes triggers an e-mail to his stepmother. >> "I can question him about it. He can't hide anything from me." >> "They always know how much money i have to spend. And they can keep track of it." >> Reporter: Bosses can also issue the cards to employees to control their spending. There are some fees -- a quarter every time the card is used. ..... <<<
