Debit Cards

Offers are matched on an account level, based on the purchases made with your financial institution’s debit card for that account.

If you make different purchases with different accounts, you will see different offers in those accounts.

You must use the financial institution debit card connected to that account to redeem the offers for that account.

You can opt-out by clicking on the “Stop receiving all offers” link on the rewards summary page. This link can be found in the upper right part of the rewards summary page. If you opt-out of the rewards program at this time but change your mind later, please contact Support and we will resume providing offers to you.

If a cardholder does not have an email or SSN on record, they are requested to perform a PIN-based transaction. The PIN-based transaction may be performed at an ATM or to make a purchase. The amount entered is compared to the historical transaction data.

If the cardholder does not know their PIN, they can reset it by calling 800-567-3451.

If you come into one of our branches and receive an Instant Issue card, you will also choose your PIN at that time and your card will be active. If you receive a card mailed to you, you will need to call the phone number on the debit card sticker (800-992-3808) to activate your card.

Each member has a set limit of what can be withdrawn from an ATM. Generally though, you would have a daily limit of $510. Please note: individual ATM terminals may have more restrictive transaction limits.

There are no weekly or monthly limits, only daily timeframes apply. A daily timeframe covers a 24 hour time period that starts when you make a withdrawal.

If necessary, your membership can be reviewed to temporarily increase the limits on your card by using VideoConnect, stopping at one of our convenient branch locations or by calling Member Solutions at 877-794-6712.
