Debit Card Controls & Alerts in FSB Mobile Banking

Within our mobile banking app, click on "My Cards" to access card controls.  You can turn your card “off” or “on”, receive real-time alerts for debit card transactions, monitor card usage, and see your spending at a glance – all from your smartphone!

  • See your recent transactions with merchant logos to help quickly identify fraudulent transactions
  • See your spending summary by month to help you stay on track with your budget.
  • See which merchants have your card on file (they keep your card information stored in their system)
  • Create your own travel plan -- add states or countries to which you will be traveling to proactively alleviate card issues
  • Report your card as lost or stolen
  • Turn your card "off" if it's been misplaced

  You can set up the following types of alerts and controls:

Location

  • Establish a usage area within a certain range of the cardholder’s location (based on the phone’s GPS) or set a regional usage area
  • International alert and control capabilities are also available

Merchant

  • Set controls for specific categories, such as gas, hotel, travel, restaurants, and groceries

Transaction

  • Monitor specific types of transactions, including in-store purchases, e-commerce transactions, mail/phone orders, and ATM transactions

Usage

  • Establish spending limits to allow transactions up to a certain dollar amount, and decline transactions over that amount

 

Imagine your student is traveling on a school trip, and your student has a debit card.

You can set up alerts to be notified where the card is being used, and you can set up controls to ensure the card is only used for approved transactions (example: for a snack at a gas station) – and, on the flip side, to make sure the card is NOT used in unauthorized transactions (example: to buy something online).  You can also set up spending limits, so you can set a transaction limit (example: $25 limit, so anything over $25 would be automatically declined).  You can adjust the limits as needed.

If the card is lost or stolen, you can turn the card “off” to prevent fraudulent transactions, and you can report the card as lost or stolen right from the app!  Please also call us to notify us that the card is lost or stolen so we are aware of the situation.

The FSB mobile app is FREE!  What a great way to guard your card and the cards of your family members!
