## What is Unitus Card Guard?

With Unitus Card Guard, you can easily and securely access your Unitus Visa card accounts anytime, anywhere all from your phone! This application is free to download and makes it easy for you to manage your cards on the go!

Once you've created a new username and secure passcode for logging on, you'll have access to features including:

•	Visa Travel Notifications: Adding your travel itinerary into the Unitus Card Guard app allows Visa to make more informed authorization decisions when it comes to approving transactions and reducing fraud while traveling. 

•	Card On/Off Setting: Turn your card on or off. By turning your card "off", no purchases or withdrawals will be allowed until you turn the card back "on".

•	Transaction Alerts: Get notified of card activity so you’re always in the know. You’ll receive a real-time notification whenever you make a purchase or your card was declined, so you’ll know exactly when the card activity took place. Receive notifications via text, email, or push notification.

•	Set Spending Limits: Now you can control how much is spent on your card. Track spending and help prevent fraud by allowing transactions up to a certain amount. You can update the authorization amount at any time.

•	Security: Setup and manage account alerts to help you monitor your account activity. Mobile data transmissions and account information are protected by 256 bit SSL encryption, just like they are when you bank online, to prevent unauthorized access. Now you can have the peace of mind to spend with confidence all from the palm of your hands!

Use this app in conjunction with the Unitus Community Credit Union Mobile app to get the most benefit out of your Unitus Visa card.

### 1/5 — Do not use

*2023-08-31*

This app constantly give me an error and does not work.  I’ve used it to lock my card and now I can’t use them.  There isn’t a support number and my bank isn’t any help.

### 1/5 — Why the changes?

*2023-08-05*

Don’t know what happened with this App but before the “change” you’d have the option to block Online Orders, ATM usage, etc. Now its just suspends the card.. but Online orders still go through.. not okay.

### 1/5 — Charge still went through

*2022-10-24*

I locked my debit card to keep an automatic payment from going through and it did anyway. Very frustrating that they didn’t specify anywhere about automatic charges being exempt from locked status. If this is the case it should be stated somewhere clearly. Can’t recommend a banking app with poorly communicated terms putting peoples money in an uncertain state of security.

### 2/5 — Waste of space

*2018-09-19*

Tell me how you couldn’t add these features already on the Unitus app? You spend how much  on creating this? You got other banks that offer these features in the same app and you had to go and create another one for simple functions. Don’t get me wrong there cool functions but again Personally  this could of been easily added into the already existing unitus app.
