Debit Cards

 

 

Debit cards give you worldwide access to your checking account and make carrying cash or your checkbook a thing of the past. Now, INOVA debit cards come with the new Visa payWave feature. By waving your card in front of a secure reader, you save time and add convenience to your shopping experience! For more information, or to order a debit card with payWave, email memserv@inovafcu.org.

 

 

 

Requirements:

 

You must be a credit union member.

 

You must have a checking account.

 

If you are under the legal age, a parental signature is required.

 

Benefits to You:

You'll love the convenience of paying for purchases directly from funds in your checking account with out the time consuming task of writing checks. Use your debit card anywhere VISA is accepted.

 

REWARDS! Anyone who uses their debit card for swipe and sign transactions will earn rewards points. You'll receive 1 point for every $5 you spend.

 

A debit card is safe and easy to use. You'll feel more secure carrying a debit card rather than cash and you can easily conduct transactions in person, over the phone or when making online purchases. You can use either the credit or debit option when making a purchase but the credit option will save money on transaction fees.

 

Cash advances against your debit card are available at the credit union, other financial institutions, or through VISA® ATM Network worldwide.

 

Bill paying is easy when you set up your debit card to make recurring payments automatically.

 

Debit cards provide financial flexibility and control without costly finance charges.

 

Keeping records of your purchases is easy with a detailed monthly statement.

 

New debit cards are reissued every 36 months. If you need to replace your card before that, you may be subject to a $10.00 fee. (No charge to replace a stolen card when a police report is obtained.)

 

Rewards:

Using your INOVA FCU VISA Check Card can really pay off! With our Check Card Rewards program, every dollar you spend adds up to great rewards for you! For every $5 you spend with your INOVA FCU VISA Check Card, you will receive one rewards point. You’ll be amazed how fast your points add up. And, once you have accumulated enough points, you can redeem your points for INOVA Visa gift cards.

 

Earning Points
You will earn one point for every $5 purchased with your INOVA FCU VISA Check Card. No points will be earned for cash advances, including convenience checks or for balance transfers. Return transactions will be subtracted from point totals.  There is no limit to the amount of points you can earn with this program.* You will earn and can combine points on purchases made with multiple cards that have the same account number. Points are earned based upon signature level transactions (swipe and sign) only. No pin-based transactions are eligible for rewards.  Your VISA Check Card Rewards Account must remain open and in good standing, otherwise any available points will be forfeited.

Points earned in this program cannot be exchanged for cash or discounts on financial services, cannot be earned from or transferred to any other charge or credit accounts, and have no value other than as provided in the INOVA Federal Credit Union VISA Check Card Rewards Program.
