Safety and Convenience When
You Handle Your Money
The simple answer to handling your money safely and
conveniently is avoid carrying a lot of cash with you. A check card i
nstead
of cash is all you'll need most of the time.
Below are just some of the benefits of using a check card
instead of cash.
A check card usually offers liability protection in case
of fraud or unauthorized card usage if reported
immediately after discovery (you don't have this
protection if you lose your cash).
A check card makes it easy to manage your spending because
you are able to keep track of it online.
Check cards are accepted at the millions of merchants
worldwide who accept the issuer's credit card.
Shop both online and offline with ease using a check card.
If you have an interest-bearing checking account, you can
continue to earn interest on your money until you actually
spend it because the check card deducts purchases directly
from your bank account, while the cash in your pocket
doesn't earn any interest.
If you do need a little cash on hand, many merchants
around the nation offer a cash back option when you make a
purchase so there's no need to make an extra trip to the
ATM (and possibly pay fees).
A check card can also be used at ATMs if you still want to
carry some cash.
