Card Valet App
Freedom 1st Credit Union has launched the functionality to turn your debit card off/on directly from your mobile device via an app called Card Valet, available in the App Store or Google Play. This can be helpful if:
- You lose your debit card. We’ve all had that moment where we go to look for our debit card and…uh oh! Our new service will let you turn off your card so it doesn’t end up in the wrong hands (and you can turn it back on when you inevitably find it in the least likely place).
- You want more control over your spending habits. This new technology allows you to set parameters on how your card is used, like only in-person at merchants or ATMs in order to prevent online fraud. You can also set spending limits, which can come in handy for those times when you let your teen use your card.
- Your card is compromised. Funny how we can be in a work meeting AND shopping across the country at the same time, isn’t it? Receive notification of suspicious transactions and disable your card so fraudsters can’t use it. Phew!
Learn more about Card Valet by speaking with one of our Member Service Representatives, or download the app today!
