Alerts Ensure Safe, Secure Card Usage

Alerts are sent in real time, immediately after a transaction has taken place.
Location Based Alerts and Controls
The My location control can restrict transactions to merchants located within a certain range of your locations using your phone’s GPS, transactions requested outside the specific range can be declined. The My Region control uses city, state country or zip code on an expandable interactive map, transactions requested by the merchants outside of a specific region can be declined
Usage Alerts and Controls
Spending limits can be established to allow transactions up to a certain dollar value and decline transactions when amounts exceed your defined thresholds. Transaction can be monitored and managed for specific merchant categories such as gas stations, department stores, restaurants, entertainment, travel and groceries. And you transaction can also be monitored for specific transaction types in store purchases, e-commerce transactions, mail/phone orders and ATM transactions
Card on/off Setting
When the card is “on” transactions are allowed in accordance with your usage settings.

This control can be used to disable a lost or stolen card, prevent fraudulent activity in the case of a data breach, or control spending.
