Fraud has been a rising concern to many individuals. Scammers have found new and more deceptive ways to access an individual’s identity, account information and personal login credentials. As a trusted financial institution, we are always looking for innovative ways to combat and reduce the financial losses customers can incur from scams. Card Controls is a feature located in our mobile banking app that allows you to turn your debit card on and off, add transaction alerts, set merchant controls and input travel notices, allowing you to worry less about potential fraud schemes.

Card Controls is customizable based off your preferences and allows you to receive real-time alerts. However, these are not the only benefits of enrolling your card.

Benefits of Card Controls
Primarily, Card Controls is used to offer peace of mind and enhanced security for your debit card. There are other benefits a user can receive from having their cards added to this feature.

Establishing spending limits or restricting transactions to a specific merchant can help you track and monitor your card’s usage, ultimately helping you stick to a monthly budget throughout the year. Adding a travel notice is now easier when equipped with this tool. If you are planning an out-of-state trip you can visit ‘Location Controls’ to avoid any debit card disruptions. No more calling the bank to place travel notices; we can chat the next time you pay us a visit.  

How Card Controls Can Protect You
Debit card fraud accounts for a significant portion of fraud that occurs in the United States. Many individuals may not detect the fraudulent charges until they review their transactions or receive their monthly statement, ultimately causing fraudulent transactions to go unnoticed for several days. These fraudulent transactions can easily be confused with purchases that have been made or may not cause alarm when it’s a minimal amount. Card Controls can stop this from happening by alerting you the moment your debit card is used to make a purchase. For additional protection, you can establish transaction amounts so that you can receive alerts anytime an amount exceeds the set limit. Another great security feature that is included in Card Controls is the access to freeze your debit card the instant it has been lost or stolen.

Card Controls brings extra security to help prevent debit card fraud from happening. Experience this protection by enabling your card in our Card Control feature today or reach out to one of our team members to help you get started! 1-833-372-4968.
