Did you know there are benefits to choosing CREDIT when using your Visa Debit Card? Click here to learn more.

A Visa Debit Card is directly linked to your checking or savings account. You can use your debit card to make purchases or use at an ATM. The money is instantly removed from your personal account at the time of transaction. A Debit Card is not a credit card and cannot be used to borrow funds or make a ‘charge’.

If your Visa Debit Card or Visa Credit Card has been lost or stolen, call 1 (800) 682 - 6075

Overdraft PrivilegeSM

Our discretionary Overdraft PrivilegeSM (ODP) can save you money and embarrassment. This service will mean fewer returned checks or automated clearing house (ACH) transactions on your account when you make a mistake. Pelican will consider payment of your reasonable overdraft charges as long as they are under your assigned Overdraft Privilege limit (assigned according to your checking account qualifications).** Ask a representative to add this service to your Checking Account today!

**Overdraft Limits are set up to $1000 on accounts that meet the minimum qualifications. The Overdraft PrivilegeSM service does not constitute an actual or implied agreement between you and the Credit Union. Nor does it constitute an actual or implied obligation of or by the Credit Union. This service represents a purely discretionary courtesy or privilege that the Credit Union may provide to you from time to time and may be withdrawn or withheld by us at any time without prior notice or reason or cause. Any item that we pay that is not within your available balance but is within your allowed ODP will be assessed a courtesy pay fee of $28.00 per item. In the event that a check or ACH and its associated $28.00 per item courtesy pay fee would exceed your assigned ODP limit if applied to your account, it will be returned as Non-Sufficient Funds (NSF). NSF items will be returned as unpaid, and your account will be assessed an NSF fee of $28.00 per returned item.

Membership or membership eligibility is required. The above options are for information and advertising purposes only. Products are subject to change at any time without notification. Please contact credit union for the most current options and for more information about certain limitations on loan rate discounts and share certificate annual percentage yield (APY) increases.

To help government fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering activities, Federal law requires all financial institutions to obtain, verify, and record information that identifies each person who opens an account. What this means for you: when you open an account, we will ask you for your name, address, date of birth, and other information that will allow us to identify you. We may also ask to see your driver's license or other identifying documents.
