Common use of Signature Debit Card Transactions Clause in Contracts

Signature Debit Card Transactions. These are transactions where you make a purchase with your debit card that are processed through the Visa or MasterCard networks. You are typically asked to sign for these purchases like a credit card purchase. As described above, a merchant may seek prior authorization for asignature debit card transaction. When that happens, we generally reduce your available balance (but not your actual balance) by the amount authorized. We refer to this as an “authorization hold.” Authorization holds are processed as received throughout the day. At some point after you sign for the transaction, it is processed by the merchant and submitted to us for posting to your account. This can happen hours or sometimes days after you signed for it, depending on the merchant and its processing company. These payment requests are received in real time throughout the day and are posted to your account as they are received. Please note: the amount of an authorization hold may differ from the actual payment because the final transaction amount may not yet be known to the merchant when the authorization request is submitted. For example, if you use your card at a restaurant, a hold will be placed in the amount of the bill presented to you, but when the transaction posts it will include any tip that you may have added to the bill. Conversely, a gas station, hotel or rental car company, or other retail establishments may seek authorization in excess of the final payment amount. We cannot control how much a merchant asks us to authorize, or when and in what amount a merchant submits a transaction for payment. The fact that we put an authorization hold on your available balance does not mean the authorization is set aside and made available to pay the specific transaction authorized. The hold is simply a reduction in your available balance based on the fact that we have authorized a transaction and the Credit Union is therefore obligated to pay it when presented. o Debit card transactions can be recurring or nonrecurring. Recurring transactions are where you use your debit card to set up a recurring monthly payment, such as a gym membership. Nonrecurring transactions are one time transactions that are authorized each time you use your debit card. Using your debit card at a restaurant is an example of a one-time or nonrecurring transaction. We will rely on how the merchant characterizes the transaction for purposes of processing it and your only recourse for an improperly coded transaction is with the merchant who submitted it to us. This is a general description of how certain types of transactions are posted. These practices may change and we reserve the right to pay items in any order we chose as permitted by law. We may receive multiple deposit and withdrawal transactions on your account in many different forms throughout each business day. This means that you may be charged more than one Overdraft or Returned Item Fees if we pay multiple transactions when your account is overdrawn. You can be charged at most five Overdraft and/or Returned Item Fees per calendar day. We will decide to pay Overdrafts on a case-by-case basis, in our sole and absolute discretion. Even though we may have paid Overdrafts in the past, we are not obligated to continue doing so. For your Overdrafts cleared, you promise to immediately pay us all sums, including the fees and charges for this service advanced to you or any other person you permit to use your checking account and/or who causes an Overdraft on your checking account. We may terminate or suspend the Courtesy Pay services at any time without prior notice. In no event shall any termination of these services relieve you of your obligation to repay the amount of any Overdraft in your account plus Overdraft (Courtesy Pay) and Returned Item (NSF) Fees.

There are fees and charges if your transaction is covered using one of these overdraft protection plans, but they are normally less expensive and are a promise by us to honor (up to the available funds or credit limit) . Using one of these overdraft protection plans is normally a better way to manage your account than overdrawing your account . If you are interested, call us at 0-000-000-0000 during normal business hours to speak with a Bank representative about linking another account to avoid overdrafts or establishing a line of credit to cover overdrafts . An overdraft occurs when you do not have enough available funds on deposit in your account to pay Overdrafts checks and other payments that are being charged to your account . An overdraft is the negative balance that results . It can occur due to an ATM withdrawal, a debit card transaction, a preauthorized automatic debit, a telephone- or web-initiated transfer, a check, or paper or electronic transfers or withdrawal . When you conduct a transaction, make sure that you have enough available funds on deposit in your account (or under an overdraft plan) to cover the transaction and avoid the overdraft .

Overdraft fees and charges for this service advanced to you or any checks (and other person you permit to use transactions made using your checking account and/or who causes number) and automatic bill payments are in our “Fee Schedules” under the heading “NSF Charges .” You will see that there is a limit on the overdraft fees and charges . You will also see that we may impose fees that are based on individual transactions that overdraw your account as well as based on negative balance at end of day or over time . There are also charges for returning checks, ACH and recurring debit card transactions unpaid . These fees and charges can quickly add up and quickly become significant . Overdrafts are not “free .” A small transaction can become quite expensive if overdrafts occur due to the transaction . You need to avoid overdrafts and, if they occur, pay them off quickly . Processing your checks, other deposits and other payments is a dynamic environment that is complex and may change due to technological innovation, changes in payment systems or changes in our policies and practices, including our order of processing . Overdrafts can arise due to a number of factors, so bear in mind that: • You should not assume or expect that you will be able to avoid an Overdraft overdraft by making a covering deposit before your transaction settles with us . Your checks, for example, can clear very quickly – sometimes even on the same day as you deliver the check to a merchant or other payee . • Transactions may not be processed in the order in which they occur and the order in which transactions are processed and cleared can affect the total amount of overdraft fees incurred by you . • If you use an ATM or debit card, sometimes a hold is placed on your checking account . The hold amount may be more than the actual transaction, based on system processing methods and the type of transaction and the merchant involved . A hold can result in an overdraft, since “held” funds are not available . You should therefore check to be sure your funds are not being “held” if you are concerned that another transaction might cause an overdraft . • You can see an account balance online, via an ATM or by calling us . This account balance typically will not disclose the predetermined amount under the standard overdraft services, such as preauthorized overdraft transfers from a savings account, money market account, or line of credit .

For example, a merchant point-of-sale terminal may not provide account balances, or a balance at an ATM may reflect yesterday’s balance information . Your bank account balance is continually changing, so any balances you see may not reflect current transactions or may otherwise be out of date . You can call us at 0-000-000-0000 during normal business hours if you want clearer information about your balances, to help avoid overdrafts . • You should not expect us to monitor or track your overdraft usage and to warn you or caution you if the Courtesy Pay usage pattern becomes excessive or high . On the other hand, we may contact you if this is the case, possibly to suggest an alternative arrangement such as one of our overdraft protection plans . • The predetermined amount under the standard overdraft services may change at any time without prior noticetime, increasing or decreasing . In no event shall any termination This is also true of our order of payment and processing . However, we do not manipulate these services relieve on a daily, or on a customer-by-customer basis, in order to maximize customer fees . • Our standard overdraft practices are NOT designed to help avoid your future financial challenges and should not be used by you that way . Extensive use of overdrafts is an indicator of poor account management and can result in significant expenses for you . For some of our customers and their accounts, we may allow overdrafts and not impose a fee or charge as an accommodation to the customer relationship .
