Legal Question in Employment Law in Georgia

Can I be forced to go direct deposit or to a paycard
I have recently started a new job. I have just found out that my employer will be forcing the employees to go to direct deposit or to a pay card (something to a credit card that they put your pay on then use it like a credit card). Is it legal in the state of Georgia or Federally that says that I have to do this? I do not have enough money to open a checking account at this time and do not want the pay card because it would prevent me from giving at church. The company headquarters is in Utah if that has a bearing on it. Prefer to receive a check from company.

There nothing illegal about it. I would suggest opening a checking account anyway. Many are now free if you have direct deposit.
