Check Card…one of the most versatile and convenient cards you can
carry!
Use it at
ATMs
Get cash at thousands of ATMs worldwide – just look for the Cirrus®
or NYCE® logo.
Use it to pay for purchases
The Visa Check (Debit) Card is the fast and easy way to make purchases. Use
it instead of cash, checks or credit cards at all kinds of merchants
such as department stores, supermarkets, gas stations, restaurants,
pharmacies, florists, video stores, post offices - anywhere Visa
debit cards are
accepted. Even healthcare providers - including physicians, dentists
and hospitals - accept the Visa Check Card for payment. Plus, you
can conveniently pay for catalog orders right over the phone. The
purchase amount is deducted directly from your
checking account, just like a check. There's no need to show
identification or wait for check approval. It's also safer than
carrying a lot of cash.

Selecting
“Credit vs. Debit” for your purchases
At many merchants, you can choose to pay by selecting either the
“Credit” or “Debit” option. Whichever option you choose, the
purchase amount will be deducted directly from your checking
account.
|
“CREDIT”
OPTION
Choosing “Credit” lets you
sign for the transaction rather than entering your PIN.
Step 1: Present your
card to the cashier and indicate you are paying with your Visa
card. If there is a point-of-sale terminal, select the
“credit” option and swipe your card.
Step 2: After the
purchase is approved, the cashier will give you a receipt to
sign.*
Step 3:
Record the transaction in your checkbook register.
*At
certain merchants, such as paying at the pump, you will not be
required to sign a receipt. |
“DEBIT”
OPTION
You will be required to enter
your PIN rather than sign a receipt.
Step 1: Select
the “debit” option on the point-of-sale terminal and swipe
your card.
Step 2:
Enter your four-digit Personal Identification Number (PIN) on
the keypad.
Step 3: After
the purchase is approved, you will be given a receipt.*
Step 4:
Record the transaction in your checkbook register.
*At most merchants, you can
receive “cash back” with your purchase when selecting the
“debit” option.
|
The merchant’s name and address, and
the transaction amount and date will appear on your monthly checking
account statement for easy record keeping. You can also monitor
your purchases by using
Connect24 Online Banking.
