VISA® Debit Cards

What is a “Debit Card?”

Plastic cards called "debit cards" are issued by financial institutions for use by their members/customers. The card allows its member/customer to make purchases directly from funds in their checking accounts. A debit card is different from a credit card because the purchases are made with funds that already exist in the member’s/customer's account, rather than from a credit account that can be paid at a later date. In addition, the member/customer can withdraw funds from his checking account by using an automatic teller machine (ATM). Debit cards can be found in most countries of the world, and are reducing the number of checks that have to be processed.

What Type of Debit Cards Does Barton Plant EFCU Offer Their Members?

VISA® Debit Cards

A VISA® Debit Card, also known as a VISA® Check Card is a debit card that works like a check, only better. When you make purchases, the amount is deducted directly from your checking account — but you also enjoy added convenience and security protections.

Pay for all Types of Purchases Quickly and Easily

Just use your VISA® Debit Card when you are ready to pay. It works fast, so there's no need to write checks or fumble for change. Plus, you'll save on trips to the ATM and can leave your checkbook at home. And because it's accepted at millions of places worldwide, you can use it for nearly anything, including:

  • Monthly bills 

  • Dining 

  • Fast food 

  • Groceries

  • Movie tickets 

  • Prescriptions 

  • Gas and automotive services 

  • Internet/online purchases 

  • Phone orders

Gain Peace of Mind with VISA®'s Extra Security Protections

When you sign for your purchases, your money comes directly from your checking account, but you also get security protections that help prevent, detect and resolve fraud, including:

  • VISA®'s Zero Liability Policy, which protects you from unauthorized charges. Any funds taken from your account due to fraudulent use will be returned to you

  • Continuous fraud monitoring to detect and prevent suspicious activity on your debit card

  • Access to Identity Theft Assistance to help you recover your identity and prevent further problems

  • A 3-digit security code to verify your identity for Internet and phone purchases

Here's how to sign for your purchases:

Swipe and Sign: Use your VISA® Debit Card, tell the cashier you want to sign for your purchase and sign the receipt.
OR
At a PIN pad: Swipe your card, select CREDIT on the keypad and sign the receipt.
You'll receive these same security protections when you use your VISA® Debit Card for online, phone and mail orders or for purchases at merchants that do not require a signature.

Improve Your Money Management with an Up-to-Date Balance and Transaction History

Debit card transactions are automatically deducted from your checking account and typically posted within 24 hours of your purchase. So you can check your updated balance and transaction record using online banking or by calling audio teller 24/7.

In addition, every month you'll also receive a checking account statement that details your purchases, including merchant name, location, date and amount. So it's easy to see where your money goes.
