The IRS is using information from a 2019 return (or a 2018 return if no 2019 return was filed). If the banking information for the card is still active, then your stimulus money will go to the card.

Also, see the following from the IRS:

The IRS does not have my direct deposit information. What can I do?

In the coming weeks, Treasury plans to develop a web-based portal for individuals to provide their banking information to the IRS online, so that individuals can receive payments immediately as opposed to checks in the mail.
