Card Control

Card controls allow you to set up rules for when a purchase should or should not go through on your debit and credit card(s). You can also place a temporary suspension on your card(s) in the event you cannot find them, then simply turn it off once it's back in your possession.

Log in to online or mobile banking and select your credit card from the list of accounts, then click “Card Services.” Under this area, you’ll be able to disable or enable your credit card, request a new card, submit a travel notice, manage card alerts and card controls. All card alerts and notifications will be delivered to your phone number. If the phone number is unavailable, they will be sent to your email address.

To review your contact information in online banking, go to Menu>Settings>Profile. You will be able to see the primary/secondary emails on file, as well as, all phone numbers.

You can set alerts for locations, merchant types, transaction types and spend limits.

Location Alerts: To set a Location alert, login to online banking or the mobile app, select your credit card>Card Services>Advanced Card Alerts.

My Regions: Sends an alert when your credit card transaction occurs at an in-store merchant outside of the regions specified. To set, select Alert me when In-Store transactions occur outside my region and slide the bar to the right to activate, tap the Plus icon next to Add Region, search for your region and click “Add.” Up to 5 regions may be selected.

Ex. The cardholder selects Tennessee and Alabama as approved regions since they travel there frequently. A transaction takes place in California.
